Or instead of wasting more time waiting for said event just start your resolutions from today

But the idea is the same, you still want to achieve the things in 365 days

I do this because my birthday is at the end of January. I start my post holiday dieting, I quit drinking for a while, I cut back on my swearing, all of the resolutions start at the end of January

Instead of waiting 1, 2, 6, or even 8 months to make a REAL lifestyle change on your bday or new years, I found it more helpful to just make the change.

A person will only change if they truly want to or have a REASON to. I have made small changes over time which I have been able to stick with, because I knew that I wanted to. If I chose to wait for for some specific day in the future, I may no longer be interested. Thata why people don't stick to new year's resolutions.

Sometimes, its best to start off with something slowly and increase in increments, until u are at the pace u want or visa versa, u have decreased in increments until its cut out entirely.
