The essential question is what are the top 10 resolutions that are made and do we stick to them?

Maybe one of the important New Year's resolutions is weight loss; many people tend to gain a lot of weight over the Christmas period with vast amounts of dinners, buffets and parties, and then feel the need to drop a few pounds in time for the summer weather where they will be reducing the amount of clothes they wear for beach holidays.

In at second is the resolution where people decide they want to quit smoking, they want to start a brand new year free from health problems and chest problems however the bulk of people that decice to do this don't even last longer than the end of the month and soon return to the habit.

Another of the top resolutions that people tend to chose is to spend more time with family and friends, whether it's joining in more with family activities and events or simply going round for a cup of tea when you have some spare time. Out of the top 3 this is the one that has a more thriving rate and people are more likely to stick to this resolution. Other resolutions contain getting out of debt, learning something new, stopping the consumption of alcoholic drinks, helping others and being organised in their daily schedule.

New Year's resolutions is a part of tradition in most families at the start of each New Year but unfortunately at least three quarters of us don't stick to them and even more of those that don't stick to them end up loosing will power before the end of the first month.
