"As we welcome in the new year, a common activity across many cultures is the
setting of new year resolutions. New year represents a significant temporal
milestone in the calendar when many people set new goals for the year ahead.
Here in Australia, over 70% of men and women (over 14 million Australians) are
reported to have set at least one new year resolution in 2022.
New year pledges or promises are not new. This practice has been around for
some time. Most ancient cultures practised some type of religious tradition or
festival at the beginning of the new year."
