A Statista Global Consumer Survey says the top 3 New Year's resolutions in the U.S. this year are to exercise more, eat healthier, and lose weight. It's no secret that keeping up with them can be challenging for many, especially if it's a big goal. That's why Kelly recommends breaking them up into smaller goals.
"The reality is we don't have the actual desire to put in the hard work that it takes to make it really happen. Or what happens is we have tiny setbacks, and instead of just rolling with them, we have an all-or-nothing mentality," she said.
