I was talking with my Father who told me the story a friend shared with him recently. His mate John had been training at a local gym for a couple of months.

A few days after New Year’s Day John went to gym and couldn’t find a car park. He approached a gym manager to address his concerns about the gym being so busy. The manager responded in an ironic tone, “Don’t worry, there will be plenty of car parks in a couple of weeks, just you wait and see.”

The manager’s point was that most people who declare a New Year’s resolution to lose weight and get fit — don’t stick at it. In fact, they stick all of about two to three weeks on average and then they’re gone, resigned to the murky backwaters of procrastination once again.
