Many wives want to lose weight, become more fit, plan to spend more time with their families, eat healthier, etc. Some want to find more happiness in their lives, travel more, better their marriage. Whatever you plan on doing different this year, remember that very few people succeed the first time around.
"Persistence does pay off. A long-term study by the University of Washington found that only 40 percent of people who stick to their No. 1 resolution did it on the first try. The rest had to try multiple times; 17 percent finally reached their goal after more than six attempts."~~CNN Health
