I have a New Years Resolution and I know by the Middle of the Year I wont Keep i!
Question: By developing mental toughness.
The word resolution comes from the root word "resolute." Look it up!
Most people don't make New Years Resolutions. They make New Years "suggestions" to themselves.
Whenever someone suggests something it gives you the option of either doing it or not doing it.
The secret is to not give yourself an option to break your resolution. And that takes focus and mental toughness. And that is something most people don't have.
If you want to keep a resolution, write it down. Then, have the discipline to review it everyday and recommit to keeping it, no matter what. Make it a "must do" for each day. The act of reviewing and daily recommitting to a resolution will keep you focused on your goal, and enable you to keep what you have committed to!

Set small goals for different times of the year and then work up to the big resolution.
I agree with above poster. You can't do it all at once. Under your big resolution, list the small steps you can take for each week and build it up.
Of course you won't. You are already setting yourself up for failure just by believing you won't make it, and saying so.
