A New Year's resolution is a promise to do something differently in the new year. For example, someone might resolve to exercise regularly or learn a new skill.

Here are some tips for making New Year's resolutions:

• Be specific: Make sure your resolution is clear.

• Break it down: Split large goals into smaller ones.

The tradition of making New Year's resolutions dates back over 4,000 years to the ancient Babylonians.

They believed that keeping their resolutions would lead to favor from the gods.
