According to research performed by the Opinion Corporation and 24/7 Innovation in Dec 2008: • 45% of people usually set New Year’s resolutionsrn• 17% set resolutions infrequently, andrn• 38% absolutely never set resolutions. Of those that do set resolutions (these add to more than 100% as some people set multiple resolutions): • 35% want to improve their financesrn• 38% want to loose weight or exercise morern• 47% want to work on their personal development or education, andrn• 31% want to improve their relationships. The problem with all of this is the fact that unless you are a businessman or a really ambitious person, you don’t measure and or track your resolutions or goals. Jaco Beukes of habittool.com, also contains other features such as online learning, a community forum and affiliate coaches to provide the necessary help, support and sense of accountability that the individual might require on his/her journey to achieve his/her goals. New Year’s resolutions DO NOT work, unless you have a structured approach, the correct tools and support required. Fortunately, this is now available to everyone.
