The Only New Year's Resolution You'll Ever Need
Whether you scribble your resolutions into a journal or post them on the refrigerator or just repeat them to yourself in your head as the New Year approaches, you have probably made New Year's resolutions before.

But what if I told you that just one simple resolution could accomplish just about every resolution I've listed at the beginning of this article, all in one fell swoop? Eleven resolutions in one? And what if I told you that one single resolution could actually be easy?
