Quiz that helps you understand how good is your New Year’s resolution (by Richard Wiseman)
I first came across Richard Wiseman in Life On Board project (part 2 here) where he discusses the matters of luck and destiny with Cris Gardener. One point these gentlemen make and that I’ve often thought about later is that ‘luck’ is something you can create yourself. Or rather that luck is something that you don’t wait for passively but rather it comes to those that actively prepare for its arrival.
I now keep an eye on Richard’s blog and Twitter and I was recently glad to discover that his new book is very much related to setting goals and making New Year’s Resolutions. He has identified four tips that greatly increase to odds of sticking to a resolution and has even developed a cool little mini quiz that will help you understand how likely you are to keep it. For example writing a resolution down so that’s it’s clearly measurable and sharing it with people around you help a great deal. May I suggest using Pledgehammer for this?
