- So as the year draws to a close we enter that silly season, the new year’s resolutions season.
All the experts of course have already told us all that it does not work and that we shouldn’t do it, but do we listen , no. Not on your Nelly

- Flushed from eating that extra turkey thigh too many, that extra portion of ice cream that you didn’t really need or want, that glass of wine that turned into a bottle of wine, etc,  etc.  Guts busting out of your trousers, unable to do up your jeans button anymore you of course resolve to loose some weight, so, up pops the laptop, out comes the bank card and before you could say no no Nanette! You are already signed up to a gym membership.

- And so the story goes, I too have been there in the past, yes i was a dumb dunce once too ..... but no, it really does not work, you sign up for the gym yes, and you go there religiously for the first four to six weeks or so of the year and then life takes over, it always starts off of course with an “ I will skip today but go tomorrow and do a double session” but as we all know that “skip today” pretty much marks the end of that whole hype. [ **but then the gym know enough to tie you into a 6/12 months clause so though you have given up on the gym they have not given up on your bank account**].


- And on and on the story goes, you drank too much at Christmas, probably got into a massive argument as a result of drinking too much, you resolve not not to drink less in the new year but to actually give up drinking completely, this of course does not even last past January, you are back at work, your work colleagues and pals want to go for an after work drinks on a cold Friday night, you didn’t even think to say no, you kid yourself that you will only have juice but as soon as you get to the pub you are first to the bar ordering shots, so, out of the window goes that particular resolution too
And with that resolution going through the window, with it does eighty percent of what you resolve to do in the new year, your mum that you resolved to call more, the person you resolved to make up with, the change of diet, you resolved to eat healthier (yeah right) etc etcetera.

- You see the first and last months of the year are the worst times to resolve to do anything, the emotions that guide these resolutions are led not just by the desire to resolve whatever needs to be resolved but by extraneous reasons, you are led by the hype of the season, everybody is making a resolution so you feel the peer pressure, it is tradition, new year new start and all that jazz ....... completely the wrong time ........ the best times to make a resolution are between the months of april and july , these are months were people have private moments, these are months where nothing really happens so that space is cleared for you to make something happen.

- Any resolutions made outside of these months can be considered as just a bit of frippery, a bit of nonsense.
