Fun Facts about New Year's Resolutions
- The first New Year's resolutions started 4,000 years ago!
- According to recent research, while as many as 45% of Americans say they usually make New Year's resolutions, only 8% are successful in achieving their goals.
- Studies show that being of the female persuasion makes you more apt to jot down a resolution or two for the New Year. 52% of women surveyed said they planned to make at lease one resolution going in 2014, compared to 48% of men.
- While women tend to be slightly more proactive about making resolutions, it's actually men who seem to be better at working toward them. In terms of goals like taking medications properly, eating a better diet, exercising more frequently, and getting more sleep, men reported success rates ranging from 7 to 17% higher compared to their female counterparts.
- Roughly 1 in 3 people won't even last 31 days.
- Having someone to cheer you on or call you out when you break the rules is a great way to stay on the right track with your resolutions. 59% of those who had a "referee" to monitor their progress eventually achieved their goal compared to 29% who were going it alone.
- 80% of people from a study report success when there's money on the line!
What are OUR New Year's Resolution here at the Pine Ridge office?
