Goals without a vision are a waste of time

07/3/2019

Goal setting is not only the trendiest thing since sliced bread, but it’s also an essential component for growth both personally and professionally. The problem is that so few people are actually setting goals properly. Therefore, most aren’t achieving the level of success they’d desire. A quick scroll through Instagram and you’ve got endless reminders of the failed attempts and the ones that you’re currently falling short on. Here’s the thing though, you were never likely to succeed if your goals have no foundation.

Foundation is everything.

In this case, the foundation is your vision. Your goals should be stepping stones getting you one step closer to the vision of your ideal life. If you have no idea what your ideal life looks like then isn’t it a bit insane to expect these goals to magically motivate you into crushing them? The correct answer here is hell yes!

Goal setting and staying in line with the goals you’ve set isn’t always easy, and there are often times distractions that throw you off track. Having a vision is like having the ultimate road map. If you’re going on a trip and you know your destination is going to be your dream adventure, you’re not going to get discouraged by every bump in the road or distracted by every shiny object off the highway.

Tips to dial in your vision

  • Break it up into four categories; family, faith, finance, and fitness. Then brainstorm for each individually.
  • Remember that this is YOUR vision. It’s might not be what your family wants, or your spouse. At this moment this vision is only yours and it’s important to keep true to whatever you truly desire.
  • Once the brainstorming is done, summarize each category with a view vision statements. These will help keep you on track when you’re feeling overwhelmed by a goal.
  • Once you set a new goal that is in line with your vision, jot down 1-3 habits that will help you achieve the goal.
  • Remember that your visions for your life are constantly evolving. You are never locked into a previous vision. You just have to make the decision to change it.

I’ve got a free guide to help you navigate your vision and create goals that actually make sense! You’ll find it here.

Just do the dang thing already. This is OUR remi Just do the dang thing already. 

This is OUR reminder - because I need it just as much as you-  that now is the time to do the things you’ve been holding back on. 

Get out of your comfort zone and see what’s possible. 

One of my favourite things is to make a list of all the things I’d want to do if time, money and logic didn’t get in the way.  Don’t worry about the “How”. It’ll come. 

Trust me when I tell you, logic and I are TIGHT so it’s a bit of a struggle at times to break the bond and allow my mind to wander. But I’ve done things I didn’t think were possible and we’re just getting started. 

What’s something you’ve always wanted to do!?
I’m hella late posting this but as my birthday w I’m hella late posting this but as my birthday was last month I spent a lot of time reflecting on the year prior.  It was without a doubt one of the hardest years yet. 

Not many people know, but I spent most of last year sick and my natural instincts to work harder in times of crisis was actually making things worse. 

I had to take a step back, learn to rest ( still working on this really…) and the hardest thing of all… ask for help. 🙈🙈

I learned some valuable lessons, many that hurt but needed to be learned. I set boundaries, took time to work on healing and slowed down. 

There was a lot of low points but there was also a lot of really amazing moments too. 

Grateful for all the experiences on this wild journey of life and a few key people (you know who you are) who’ve supported me along the way! 🖤

Here’s to 31!
April 2023 // the month YOU go after what you want April 2023 // the month YOU go after what you want!!
I’m just looking for people looking for me! If t I’m just looking for people looking for me! If that’s not you, that’s totally cool! I’ll still cheer you on from the sidelines 🎉
