Wow it is new year.  Did you make a New Years resolution?  You know most every New Years Reselution goes broken, some before the first day of the year is gone.

Look in your heart, find out what it is that you need to make a resolve on. Is it language, cheating, food, just to live a better life for the New Year and be closer to God?  Narrow it down to the most realistic goal or the most needed. Now simply start out by saying "God this year I promise you and myself that I am going to loose weight. Without you it is an impossible task, but with you I can reach any goal I set.  You will not put in front of me any temptation I can not overcome with your love. In Jesus name, amen"

Put your goal in the place of weight loss. Now think about it: you just promised God and yourself that you would fight for the goal. He will not let you down and you are the one person you should be able to count on, so with those two behind you, you can not fail. Plus do you want to break a promise to God?? And if you break a promise to yourself, how do you expect others to keep theirs.
