Great Apps To Keep Your New Year's Goals On Track

The New Year brings a fresh start and many of us set goals for ourselves. Whether it's losing that 10 pounds you've been needing to do or maybe reading that book that's been sitting on your desk since last June or going to the gym five days a week, unfortunately it is easier said than done. Many Americans make New Year's resolutions but hardly any of them actually follow through. This could be partly to setting goals too high or maybe stress or just life's day to day activities that cause distractions. Whatever the reasons may be luckily with today's technology there are useful apps that can keep us on track.
Here are some apps that may be useful , posted are the icons as well so they can be recognized on iTunes or google store:
