Resolutions
A New Year’s resolution app that gets you past February
A New Year’s resolution app turns a yearly goal into a daily habit and gives you someone to keep it with. On DuoShare, break your resolution into one small daily action, share it with a friend, and start a 66-day challenge in January. Most resolutions fail quietly; this makes failing loud.
Why resolutions fail
- They are outcomes, not actions: “lose weight” instead of “walk 30 minutes.”
- They are private, so nobody notices when they stop.
- They are all-or-nothing, so one slip ends them.
Turn a resolution into a habit
- Get fit → Workout 30 minutes, 3 days a week.
- Read more → Read 10 pages a day.
- Save money → No-spend weekdays.
- Less phone → No phone in bed.
- Be healthier → Drink water before coffee and 8,000 steps.
The January plan
- Pick one resolution and one daily action.
- Invite a friend who has their own resolution.
- Start a 66-day challenge on January 1st or the first Monday.
- Hit the finish in early March, past the point most people quit.
