Why do people get so annoyed by New Year’s resolutions?

I hear the same old “I HATE new years resolutions they are POINTLESS you can set a goal anytime waiting until once a year is lazy” all the time. Some people are depressed Karen and if it being a new year is what motivates them to set a goal then so be it. Yes, all that happens is the number of the year it is changes to a different number which isn’t necessarily meaningful but it can be if you make it. It’s a new year and it feels like a fresh start. Let people use that to motivate them and mind ya business. It’s a new year and a chance to look back and reflect on the last year of your life, where your going, what you’ve done, what you need to do more of, what you should do less of, which areas you wannna change, what things you’ve been doing that haven’t been working? What has been working for you? which things do you want to take into the next chapter with you? Which things do you want to leave behind? It’s a chance to look at yourself and ask what can I do better? How can I make this year better than last year?

Sure you can do that anytime but let’s be real when do you?

And I know a lot of people respond with “oh I have nothing against it it’s just I think it’s dumb cause no one ever follows through with it” says the person who doesn’t even do New Year’s resolutions and therefore wouldn’t even know! It just annoys me how much people get annoyed about a positive thing. I’ve only ever had positive experiences from setting New Year’s resolutions resulting in completing goals. Why do people get so salty about something that isn’t causing any harm??? Grow up
