January is a good time to set goals and resolutions for the year ahead. But keeping them is another matter.
According to hospitality data provider CGA, 35% of Americans resolved to take part in “Dry January,” abstaining from alcohol during the first month of the year. However, while their intentions may be good, just 9% of people who set a new year’s resolution actually achieve it, with nearly a quarter giving up after the first week, according to data from the Society for Personality and Social Psychology.
