Do you have a New Year’s Resolution?
A new year is synonymous with resolutions. Since this is a new year, I wanted to share how we can stay true to our resolutions. To start, a resolution must become a habit.
However, according to the article below, the “21 Day” rule to create a habit is actually not true. It takes a minimum of 21 days. The University College London performed a study and they actually claim that it takes 66 days to create a habit and it can go all the way up to 8 months.
What does this mean? If you started your resolution yesterday, please reassess yourself in the beginning of March. This can be a checkpoint to keep you in track for the rest of the year.
I hope this motivates you and reminds you that it does take time to become successful.

Good luck with your resolution and Happy New Year!
