Oh dear, March is here. Not long ago it was Christmas and we were all excited about our New Year’s resolutions and intentions. According to the U.S. News & World Report, however, 80 percent of New Year’s resolutions fail by mid-February because the rush of excitement and sense of determination we have at the beginning of the year fades rather quickly and we tend to fall back into our old habits. As an example, we can think of how crowded a gym becomes in January every year, just to go back to its normal volume of attendance by March, as people start forgetting and abandoning their resolutions.
