The Most Common New Year Resolutions

The New Year, a time of making resolutions and weight loss plans after an indulging Christmas period as speedily passed by. It is also a time of sales galore in most shops on the Internet and in key high street retailers as the ever popular January sales hit the news and lips of many a shopper.

The central question is what are the top 10 resolutions that are made and do people stick to them?

Possibly one of the popular New Year’s resolutions is weight loss; many people tend to put on a few pounds over the Christmas period with vast amounts of eating and drinking, and then feel the need to drop a jean size in time for the summer weather where people will be hitting the beaches and sunbathing with their new figure.

In at second is the resolution where people decide they want to quit smoking, they want to begin a brand new year without health problems and breathing problems Nonetheless the majority of people that chose this option don’t even last longer than the month of January and soon go back to the addiction.

In at third is another well addressed resolution and that is to spend more time with family and close friends, whether it’s joining in more with family activities and events or popping round for a cup of coffee every so often. Out of the above 3 this is the one that has a more successful rate and people are more liable to stick to this resolution. Other resolutions include getting out of debt, learning something new, not drinking alcoholic drinks, helping others and being organised in their day to day life.

Most of us hold up our hands up to making new resolutions at the start of each New Year but sadly at least three quarters of us don’t stick to them and even more of those that don’t stick to them end up giving up before the end of the first month.
