2018 was a great year for me personally. As with any other year, I had my highs and my lows. There were some great experiences and goals that I did reach. However, there were opportunities that I can improve in 2019.
2018 was the first year that I actually written down my goals and declared them publicly. I am happy that I reached a few of them. However, there was some valuable lessons. One of the lessons that I learned is to build a foundation and bring it up slowly at first. Last year, I set too many goals. As a result, I got overwhelmed and frustrated. I realized that when it comes to goal setting, we cannot go from 0 to 120 miles per hour in 2 seconds.
This year I am setting more short term goals and fewer of them. Thus, I can focus on a couple of them while I gain momentum. I can then take on more goals and missions once I build momentum. For the first part of January, I will focus on my health and time management. I am not even going to focus on my business, emotions, and other areas. I feel that my health is a priority and being able to manage my time will enable me to be able to prioritize on the other areas of my life.
I will re-evaluate my goals at the end of January and make any readjustments. Once the first quarter ends, I will make some goal changes for the remainder of the year because my yearly goals are not fixed. They are flexible. For example, I set a goal of making only 40 YouTube videos. Yet, I know that I will likely make more than 40. I want to make this goal achievable then stretch it out once I know I have the habit to be able to create more videos. In other words, I am building a habit muscle to be more productive.
