Question #54
“What are some of your goals for this year?”
Dear ML,
I love this question! Every year I set goals in a few different categories: health & wellness, financial, career, spiritual, relationships, etc. I’ll make 1-2 goals per category, to end up with a total of 10ish goals for the year.
Here are a few!
Hike 100 miles. I decided last year to become a hiking girlie, so this year I want to hike 100 miles over the entire year. I’m a bit behind on this goal, but I also knew that the winter months would have way fewer miles than the warmer months.
Call my parents once per week. I made this a goal because I wanted to be more intentional about talking to my parents regularly.
Increase my savings. I depleted my savings in 2023 when I was ballin outta control, and I haven’t made a concerted effort to beef them back up. I really want to do that this year, which helps me feel much more financially secure.
Make new church friends. I’m relatively new to my current church, and it’s been a little hard to make friends there. I’m trying to change that this year. We’ll see how it goes
As you can see, a lot of my goals are set based on being more intentional about things that I want to do, and they range in style in terms of how measurable they are.
