Elizabeth Gilbert, writer

It’s that time of year again.

Time to make that list of unrealistic goals you want to accomplish in 2018.

I don’t make New Year’s resolutions. You have to remember you made them in order to accomplish them — and I never do.

Motivational blogs can help you set realistic goals and expectations that may set you up to complete your New Year’s resolution (especially if that resolution is to love yourself and become a better person).
