Two, One. Happy New Year! It's our { one _3 } holiday where we celebrate the { passage _7 } of time which makes people stop and think, how do I want next year { to be _5 } different than this year? Maybe you're { feeling _7 } a little girthy or a bit too lazy. Or maybe this is the year you finally { find _4 } that new job. { Regardless _10 } of what your New Year's resolution is, we want to { remind _6 } you, you will probably fail. Yep. Eighty { percent _7 } of New Year's resolutions completely and { utterly _7 } fail. That's because people don't understand { the _3 } difference between a New Year's resolution { and a _5 } New Year's plan. You see, resolutions can be made { on _2 } a whim. Your resolution will probably make you { feel like _9 } crap for the first couple of weeks and { without _7 } a plan to get yourself through, you're { destined _8 } to fail. A plan takes forethought. A plan means you're { serious _7 }. A plan breaks up your resolution in small achievable { chunks _6 } and has many rewards along the way. A plan is tracked { in a _4 } journal and a plan recognizes that there's nothing { magical _7 } about January 1st. People who make plans are twice { as likely _9 } to achieve their resolution. So we wish you a Happy New Year. May all your plans { come true _9 }. From us to you. | Two, One. Happy New Year!
