People set New Year's resolutions as a way to reflect on the past year, identify areas for personal improvement, and set goals for the upcoming year. The transition to a new year symbolises a fresh start, providing a psychological reset and a sense of optimism.

We know that setting resolutions allows us to define our aspirations, whether related to health, personal development, relationships, or other aspects of their lives. While the tradition of making resolutions is deeply ingrained in lots of cultures, the practice also stems from a desire for self-improvement and a commitment to positive change.

Jerry Seinfeld, one of the most iconic comedians in the world, achieved fame not only through his wit and humour, but also through a simple, yet effective rule and that rule is so elegantly straightforward, you’ll love it.

His objective was simple: ‘Don't break the chain’ of consecutive days with an "X". Over time this practice became a powerful motivator for him to continuously work on his craft.
