New Year, Another Time for Unrealistic New Year Resolutions

Happy New Year 2019. As Usual, we expect majority of people to make resolutions as done in past years.

Realistically, this Resolutions are always great and awesome but unfortunately never attained. It has been realised that in past years people who make resolutions tend to forget it before the month of February and by the time you remind them, they simply smile it away.

Questions have been asked and research made using Nigerians as case study and discoveries show that Nigerians make resolutions out of optimism to have a better year. We hear of resolutions to quit smoking, quit womanizing, quit fighting, quit hooliganism etc. Quite awesome resolutions and most of the time very visible and evident in them in the first week of January until the table turns.

A clergy man in Ikorodu, Lagos stated that Resolutions are wonderful but needs the power of Christ to be attainable and obtainable. He sees Christ as the only change maker or change giver.

Many other sources say it involves determination and the mind-set to keep to a resolution made at the beginning of the year. Moreover, putting all this together gives a feedback to every mind that resolution is attainable with determination and a supreme power to support with grace.
