Your weekly dose of real talk, every Tuesday.
Every Tuesday, millions of us decide we're finally going to overhaul our entire lives — new workout, new diet, new career, new us. By Friday, those promises are buried under takeout containers and zero regrets. Here's the uncomfortable truth about why Tuesday makes us such easy targets for our own BS.
