For people who are all about New Year’s resolutions, the end of the year represents the perfect opportunity for understanding who you are, and who you’d like to become. If you happen to be one of those people, and you got one of those fancy-shmancy DNA kits for the holidays, you’re probably looking forward to getting your results back and discovering what they say about your background. Interestingly enough, new research suggests that some of these DNA tests might also have a lot to say about your future — the future success of how likely you are to keep your New Year’s resolutions, that is.

This may not be totally due to a lack of willpower or focus, though, so don’t give yourself a hard time if you’ve promised to read more for the last 10 years and it’s never really happened. Grab your 23andMe results and prepare to take charge of your goals in 2019, because a new study from the biotechnology company sheds some light on who might have an upper hand in succeeding at certain resolutions.
