Many people made New Year’s resolutions this weekend, but four out of five will break their resolution, and a third of them will forget their intent entirely by February. While the reasons for not carrying out a resolution are diverse, one proven strategy to successfully following through is having a friend or loved one make resolutions for you. Michael and Elizabeth Singer have been married for 19 years. Last year, they decided to write new years resolutions for each other instead of writing their own. They were interviewed about their 2011 resolutions in a recent Wall Street Journal article.
