Is it semantics or is there a difference between a goal and a (New Year’s)resolution? I’m not sure it matters, but I am sure that just as each flip of the monthly calendar page at the end of December begins a new year, each flip of the 365-day calendar begins a new day. In other words, whether you make a resolution or a goal, you start fresh on it each day–not just at the beginning of the year. So while it is refreshing to make goals or resolutions for the coming year, it is most important to keep working on them each day. Days without progress or even with setbacks will occur; continued efforts will result in victory.
