New Year's Resolutions

New Year's Resolutions are so stupid.  Many people believe that a new year is like being reborn.  It's just another year that has passed.  Often people don't think of a New Years resolution until New Years eve.  Their resolutions are a rash decision and haven't been planned.  New Year's resolutions are just used by people who have no determination to actually start improving their lives and have to wait until a special day to start.  New Years resolutions are pointless because first of all you start off procrastinating, you HAVE to wait until the New Year to start whatever your resolution is.  Second of all why do these resolutions HAVE to start on New Years day?  If you are really committed to improving a part of your life why can't you start right away? The gyms are packed but once February hits they will all be as empty as they were before the New Year.  There are very few people who maintain the drive to complete their goal, after January everyone "gets too busy" or it "gets too hard", and they just give up on their resolution. New Year's resolutions are pointless, people only make them to feel better about themselves in the New Year.  If someone is actually committed to improving their life they should just start, they shouldn't wait until the New Year.  Start going to the gym because you want to become more healthy now, imagine the difference you'll see if you started right away rather then waiting until January 1st.  "New Year, New Me" is a phrase commonly thrown around on January 1st but are you really going to change?  I think New Year's resolutions are doomed to fail, everyone talks about improving their lives but all give up after about a month.  Rather than waiting until the New Year to begin improving your life, make your New Year's resolution to stop making New Year's resolutions.  If you want to change your life do it now, you don't have to wait for another year to pass.
