Okay, confession time: I felt like I had bombed my objectives once more in February. I had two journeys and was down with Flu A for a whole week so I used to be positive I had actually not hit the mark on a lot of the objectives. However once I went to evaluation them, I used to be shocked that I had accomplished 12 of the objectives and had made progress on nearly the entire different objectives!
It simply goes to point out that setting objectives and trying to make progress on them every single day and each week actually does add up — and sometimes in greater ways in which you anticipate!
By the best way, when you’re new right here, in 2025, I’m altering up the best way I set objectives. As a substitute of setting yearly objectives, I’m setting month-to-month objectives. Each month, I’ll be sharing an inventory of my new objectives for the approaching month and an replace on how I did on the objectives from the month earlier than.
I felt like this strategy would enable extra flexibility for the surprising and the unknown that this coming yr may maintain. It additionally offers a contemporary begin firstly of each month. And it’ll enable me to tailor objectives to the month and what I’d know it would already maintain (that means some months I do know I’ll have extra time and house than different months).
To categorize my objectives, I’m utilizing alliteration and 5 areas I need to prioritize and be intentional with my time and power: Myself, Marriage, Motherhood, MoneySavingMom.com, and Cash.
