If you want to succeed at your New Year's resolution, stop thinking of it as a resolution. Instead, frame your resolution as a daily, manageable habit you want to develop into you day-to-day life.
Don't think in vague terms like "I want to lose weight" or "I want to become fluent in Mandarin." Instead, think more in terms of quantifiable micro-goals, like "I will walk 10,000 steps a day and measure that with my pedometer" or "I will learn 50 new words a day on my language app."
Other tips? Publicize your goal among your family and friends, and if it is possible, make your resolution a group effort you can share with a buddy. Anticipate self-sabotage and create weekly, quarterly or monthly reviews so you will always be on track even if you are at the end of March and the new-year high has worn off.
