"If you've managed to stick to your new year's resolutions — well done. You're in the minority," Dr Lukins told ABC News.What we find is that people think about their resolutions, but they don't actually create a plan and realistic steps to achieving them," she said.Before making a new year's resolution, 'audit yourself'"Before you even set yourself a goal, you need to consider why you're not currently working towards it.
