I tried convincing my wife that I'd rather set goals as they needed to be made throughout the year rather than making new years resolutions.

She got upset with me because she wanted to talk about the year that was and use the past year as a basis to set new and fresh goals.

I ended up pulling out some goals that I had already set over the last few months and set those as my resolutions. So, at the end of the day, I made her happy and didn't create anything new and unrealistic.
