2015 - Our Best Year Ever! Do Some Goal Setting With Me!





Setting goals is a really important thing we need to do at all times and not just at the beginning of the year. Maybe in 2015 you will resolve to get more organized, buy a planner, a calendar, or just write down what you need to do. It is a proven fact that if you write your goals down that you are more likely to accomplish them.
So, I want us to work together this year to accomplish the goals we set for ourselves and make 2015 a bang up, awesome, sparkly best year ever!
I was watching a video about how to make the most of 2015 and make it your best year ever. There are all sorts of organizing, planning and goal setting videos on YouTube. Just do a search and check them out. 

Here are a few questions you can ask yourself when contemplating your goals for 2015.
  • What 3 things are you most proud of in 2014?
  • What areas of my life do I excel in?
  • What areas in my life need more attention?
  • What 3 things can you improve on in 2015
  • What do I need to stop or start in 2015 to accomplish my goals?
  • What will be my word or words for 2015 that will describe how I will approach this next year?
  • Explain a little about why you picked these words or word for 2015. What make that word work for helping you make your best year yet seem more achievable?
  • What will I do to make sure my goals are achieved? Maybe add sticky notes to your planner and do quarterly check ins with yourself.

Check out this video to learn more about goal setting.

I followed along with this video and I filled out my journal (see an excerpt below). I could not just decide on one word for 2015, and that's okay. Do what speaks to you. You know you better than anyone else. Below are my words for 2015 and my reasons for picking them. I thought I'd give you an example if you were stuck on this question.

 

Keep me updated about how your year is going. Let's check in with each other to make sure we stick with the goals that will help us accomplish our best year yet.
Make It A Great 2015!
