Someone once described New Year’s resolutions as “a to-do list for the first week of January”.

That would certainly be true for me — so much so that it’s been a long time since I even thought of compiling one, and several incarnations since I stuck to one for more than a month.

I’m always amazed — and impressed — when folk who are not naive go to the trouble of composing a numbered list of resolutions and then proceed to publish their “notes to self”.A subscription helps you enjoy the best of our business content every day along with benefits such as exclusive Financial Times articles, ProfileData financial data, and digital access to the Sunday Times and Times Select.
