Big Changes vs Small Changes in Goals

"The other thing psychology research tells us is that the chance of long-term success when you try to change more than one thing at a time is less than 10%.  You may be able to sustain these changes for a short time, 1-4 weeks, but in the end the brain will resist and default back to its old ways. Change one small thing at a time and your chance of success is greater that 85%." - Jade Teta, Metabolic Effect

This is why most New Years Resolutions fail.

So I have to be careful in how I set my goals for 2013... Glad I have another couple of days to consider what my goals are... Because I'm not quite sure yet!!
