为什么一到新年就要下决心？原来这是个悠久传统
<p>再过几天，2018年就要张开怀抱迎接我们了，又到了下新年决心的时候。许多人在年初都会写下很多美好的新年决心，但是最终实现的人总是寥寥无几。既然新年决心难以坚持，为什么大家还要一年又一年不厌其烦地下这个决心呢？其实，新年决心是一项历史非常悠久的传统，早在四千年前，古人就播下了新年决心的种子。</p><p><span word="Every">Every</span> <span word="time">time</span> <span word="a">a</span> <span word="new">new</span> <span word="year">year</span> <span word="rolls">rolls</span> <span word="around">around</span>, <span word="people">people</span> <span word="set">set</span> <span word="out">out</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="better">better</span> <span word="themselves">themselves</span>. <span word="They">They</span> <span word="promise">promise</span> <span word="they">they</span> <span word="will">will</span> <span word="lose">lose</span> <span word="weight">weight</span>, <span word="find">find</span> <span word="a">a</span> <span word="new">new</span> <span word="job">job</span>, <span word="or">or</span> <span word="maybe">maybe</span> <span word="even">even</span> <span word="take">take</span> <span word="that">that</span> <span word="vacation">vacation</span> <span word="they">they</span>'<span word="ve">ve</span> <span word="always">always</span> <span word="talked">talked</span> <span word="about">about</span>. <span word="But">But</span> <span word="why">why</span> <span word="do">do</span> <span word="we">we</span> <span word="make">make</span> <span word="these">these</span> <span word="promises">promises</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="ourselves">ourselves</span>, <span word="and">and</span> <span word="where">where</span> <span word="did">did</span> <span word="this">this</span> <span word="tradition">tradition</span> <span word="come">come</span> <span word="from">from</span>? <span word="Why">Why</span> <span word="does">does</span> <span word="this">this</span> <span word="tradition">tradition</span> <span word="live">live</span> <span word="on">on</span> <span word="when">when</span> <span word="so">so</span> <span word="many">many</span> <span word="people">people</span> <span word="fail">fail</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="keep">keep</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="resolutions">resolutions</span> <span word="they">they</span> <span word="make">make</span>? <span word="Well">Well</span>, <span word="we">we</span> <span word="can">can</span> <span word="start">start</span> <span word="by">by</span> <span word="blaming">blaming</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="ancient">ancient</span> <span word="Babylonians">Babylonians</span>.</p><p>每当又一个新年来临，人们总要设定提升自己的目标。他们发誓要减肥，找一份新工作，或者去休那个心心念念的假期。但是，为什么我们要在新年下决心？这一传统从何而来呢？为什么这么多人都坚持不了新年决心，这项传统还是能延续下去呢？追根溯源，这要从古巴比伦人说起了。</p>
