Children might be a common time start resolutions, especially ones that might effect the children, but I disagree that it is more Schellingly in the sense that if two people were to choose a day in my, and try to name the same day, the wedding would probably be third only to birth and death.
But I guess that does not make it the best day to start a resolution.
However, note that in my position, it is better for me to temporarily believe that this is the best time to start a resolution, because that makes me more likely to go through it. Thanks for the basilisk. :)
Also, I already kind of used up the first kid, by setting that as my deadline for deciding about cryonics.
I agree weddings are more Schellingy, you’re more likely to want to remember them, they involve more friends and family and nice food, and less splattered blood and feces (your mileage may vary though).
