Here's a little fact, you may not have been aware of -- New Year's is the only holiday that celebrates the passage of time!
Perhaps that's why, as the final seconds of the year tick away, we become introspective. Inevitably, that introspection turns to thoughts of self-improvement and the annual ritual of making resolutions, which offer the first of many important tools for remaking ourselves.
Over the next few weeks millions of people from around the world will set resolutions, intending to make this the best year of their life.
Our guest today, Gary Ryan Blair - Founder of 10MillionResolutions.com believes that the majority will fail after a few short days and that only a small number of committed people will actually follow through and achieve their resolutions.
He's here today to tell us how to make resolutions that work, and to explain why ALL change begins with one commitment, one promise, or one resolution to create a better life and a better world.
So go get yourself a pen and paper, as best selling author Gary Ryan Blair will be giving you some valuable information you won't want to miss!
