think about what you'd like to change about your behavior

We're well aware of our shortcomings long before we make the resolutions to change.

and devise ways of doing it.

What ways? Say and pray?

I do a bit of rough planning of the week on Monday mornings, and I see New Year's resolutions as something similar. Just reserving a specific time to think about the goals for the coming year, identify things that could be improved and so on. No faith or praying involved.
