Just 12 percent of New Year's resolutions last the year.Richard Wiseman, Professor of the Public Understanding of Psychology at the University of Hertfordshire in England, tracked 3,000 people who had made New Year's resolutions. While over 50 percent went into the process confident that they would be able to stick to their resolutions, only 12 percent were able to their promise to themselves until the end of the year, with most failing within two weeks.
For men, the key to resolution success was having an extremely detailed goal; for women, it was telling a lot of people about their resolution.
Did you make a New Year's resolution this year? If so, has it lasted the weekend?
