SURVEY SAYS: New Year's Resolutions

January 4, 2001 - This week's question had to do with New Year's resolutions, as in - "Did you make any?" While perhaps not quite as "fashionable" as in year's past, roughly 58% of our respondents, made at least one this year, compared with 42% that opted not to - at least not at New Year's. Losing weight and exercising (more) were most commonly cited, with spending more time at home/with family a distant third.

One thoughtful respondent noted, ” I have had one resolution used every year over the last 10 years. Not to have any resolutions because I never honored any resolution. However, since I have honored this resolution, I have failed since it’s a resolution in itself.” (darned if you do, and darned if you don’t, we suppose).

Another noted “My resolutions go in one year and out the other!”
