Good resolutions

New Year resolutions are funny things.  There’s something about the start of a new year that fills us with good intentions and ambitions. 

But there’s also something that’s a bit out of reach about them too, and therefore easy enough to dismiss by the time the decorations come down.

A quick straw poll round the office here at Pool Heights suggests that, like lots of other people, there are those amongst us who want to stop smoking, drinking, eating too much chocolate and get fitter.  And try out those retro blue and yellow roller skates around town without fear of looking uncool.

One wise soul said they don’t really believe in resolutions but would rather make a small pact with themselves to try something new this year.  That’s all.  Nothing too ‘all or nothing’ about it, just something small and achievable. 

After all, who wants to feel a failure?  That’s enough to get anyone reaching for the next bar of Dairy Milk.

Breaking things down into bite sized chunks (I’ve got chocolate on the brain here) makes things easier to digest (hmm) and much more achievable.  Just like our e-learning courses. 

It seems we all want to be a bit greener, a bit thriftier and a bit healthier.  And e-learning can help with most of this.  As Meatloaf said, two out of three aint bad.
