The history of New Year Resolution dates back to 153 B.C. where the two-faced Janus, a mythical king of early Rome was seated at the head of a calendar. This mythological figure could look back on past events and forward to the future. He became the symbol of resolutions. Many Romans asked for forgiveness from their enemies and also exchanged gifts on the commencement of New Year. Romans even named the first month of the year after Janus.

Modern day resolutions might include the promise of quitting smoking and drinking, or saving money, however, for Babylonians, the most popular resolution was to return borrowed farm equipment.
Most of us make New Year Resolutions, but how many of us do really succeed in maintaining it? Surveys reveal that 25% of the resolutions are abandoned in the first fifteen weeks. Hence, the most important element of any resolution is determined Goal. As is also remarked by Abraham Lincoln, “Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is more important than any other one thing”.
