Happy New Yr everybody! I sincerely hope that your holidays had been full of heat and love and happiness!
A brand new 12 months means various things to completely different individuals, and though all the highs and lows of years prior do not simply disappear when the clock strikes midnight, January 1st does appear to suggest a recent begin. I’m right here to say “cheers” to that!
Some years I set targets, and a few I do not. There are occasions I fear about setting resolutions due to the concern of failure, or as a result of I determine that they may all be forgotten by February. I additionally are inclined to over-analyze every part and may take purpose setting too far. If targets change into overly difficult, or out of contact, then I discover I’m much less prone to really feel motivated and inspired. What I’ve discovered to work greatest for me is to:
- Choose 2-5 massive scale targets for 3 areas of my life: Private, Enterprise, and Well being. That is for the whole 12 months!
- Use these targets to set smaller, bite-sized targets every week that in the end correlate with my general imaginative and prescient.
All of that stated, I actually wish to give purpose setting an actual shot this 12 months! With out particular targets, it may be straightforward to finish up on a hamster wheel or to really feel misplaced at sea. Utilizing the tactic I discover works greatest, I got down to create some printables to assist set up my concepts. I’m heading into this course of with a mindset of why these targets are essential to ME! It may be straightforward to pick targets to suit a selected mould, or generic resolutions which have been set by society, however doing so does not in the end help in private progress. I’m additionally holding in thoughts that I’m not making an attempt to offer myself a complete makeover, or change who I’m at my core. The whole level of purpose setting is to take a look at alternatives for enchancment and to drive myself to succeed.
So whereas “getting extra organized” and “go to the health club” and “price range” are all fully high-quality resolutions, I’m going to problem myself to assume outdoors of the field, get particular about precisely what targets I’m deciding on (and why), and jotting down easy motion plans to assist me get there.
The printables I designed are meant to get us pondering and to place a pen to paper. The perfect half is that I left these pages freed from timelines and dates, to allow them to be printed and reused or up to date at any time of the 12 months. I plan to clip mine to the entrance of my new planner pages in order that I can verify in on them as I do my weekly scheduling/planning/to-do lists.
