At the end of a year people get retrospective about the year gone by and many look back and realise that they haven’t achieved as much as they would have liked to or done the things they wanted to.
It causes most people start the New Year full of good resolutions; resolutions to pray more or to see more of the world or to spend more time with loved ones.
Fear also plays a big part about making new resolutions. The fear for one’s physical, mental, emotional & spiritual health cause people to make resolutions to stop smoking or drinking, to take an exercise class, to read new books, to give up a bad relationship or to try get closer to God.
For most people however, New Year’s resolutions as we know it, rarely make it through the month of January. They are either abandoned as “impossible” or “given up until later date” or plain forgotten.
