Typically, at the beginning of a new year, people set many resolutions and goals to accomplish during that year.
If someone wants to achieve the dreams they have set for themselves each year, they should hold on to what they believe can get them where they need to go, always putting God first in everything they do.
However, often, humans are driven by the desire to minimize losses; that is, we are frequently guided by the need to erase the losses we have experienced rather than moving forward.
Setting resolutions in a way that your main goal is to reduce or eliminate losses, meaning regaining something you have lost, may be easier to achieve than resolutions aimed at gaining something new.
