Do You Have a New Year’s Resolution?

January 2, 2025

One out of three U.S. adults typically plan to make New Year’s resolutions. Younger people are more likely to make resolutions, and they tend to place more emphasis on finances, happiness, and mental health, whereas older people tend to emphasize physical health. Experts suggest that it’s easier to keep resolutions that are specific and measurable, and it can be helpful to reward yourself for meeting goals along the way.
