Do you make New Year's resolutions every year and never follow through? Patrice Washington, Founder of Redefining Wealth, joins Your Cheddar to give a few tips on how you can turn those resolutions into actual results!
First, Washington says people need to get over their fear of commitment. You can't just be "interested" in a goal. You need to be fully committed. She suggests breaking down the goal into very specific mini-goals. That will allow you to have a more personal connection with each step and will lead to a higher rate of completion.
Plus, you need to have a money-making space before you can achieve any type of goal. Washington says to set an intention and then remove the clutter. She also suggests surrounding your work or personal environment with positive words and keeping your goals in front of you...maybe on a vision board!

Josh Blackman, a constitutional law professor at South Texas College of Law Houston, discusses the DOJ lawsuit and what it could mean for other abortion laws across the country.
The Biden Administration has officially extended a ban on a Trump-era policy that prohibits traveling with a U.S. passport to North Korea. The extension is expected to last until August 2022. The ban was initially enforced after the death of Otto Warmbier, who entered a vegetative state while in North Korean custody. Advocates against the ban argue that it has caused crippling impacts on Korean Americans who have not been able to reunite with their families back home. Senior Fellow at The Foundation For Defense of Democracies Anthony Ruggiero joined Cheddar's News Wrap to discuss more.
