For many, this is a meaningless annual activity. But when midnight hits, it’s a clean slate for a new round of resolutions.

“As humans, we are ambitious creatures,” said Omid Fotuhi, a social psychologist and motivation and performance researcher.

“The fact that we have goals, the fact that we want to set goals for ourselves, is nothing more than a manifestation of this internal and almost universal desire to want to expand, achieve, expand and grow,” added Fotuhi, director on innovations in training Western Union.

Solutions don’t have to be big, grandiose, or overly ambitious.Fotuhi added.

And even if they do, he noted that their value should not be determined solely by achievements, but should also be measured by what a person becomes by trying to improve himself.
