Making your resolutions realistic gives you a greater chance of keeping them. Here are a few tips when thinking about making a resolution: 1) start small – plan for 3 days at the gym instead of 7; 2) change one behavior at a time; 3) talk about it –share your experiences; 4) don’t beat yourself up if you make a mistake; 5) ask for support – can help with stress management and provide strategies to be successful in achieving goals.For more information go to: www.apa.org/helpcenter/resolution.aspx ...
