How can we fix this? Be specific and realistic. Honestly, you can do anything you set your mind to, anything at all. If you have an area that you keep stumbling in, ask yourself the reason that you're making this change. It has to be because YOU want to make the change. If you are doing it because you feel you have to or you feel as if someone else wants you to, chances are you won't stick to the plan. Also, keep your resolutions realistic. Expecting a 50 lb. weight loss in one month is not very doable.
If you've decided that this is truly a change you want to make and one that is pleasing to God, the next step is spending some time on your knees praying about it. Remember, with God by your side ALL things are possible.
So, this year increase the chances that you’ll be one of the people who meet their New Year’s goals. All it takes is a realistic approach and a can-do attitude.
