More about Goals

 So I'm trying something a little bit different this year - a whole notebook for the year filled with lists.

But also filled with accomplishments.

I've tried this in the past and it hasn't work too well, but I am making some changes this year. I talked a little bit about it on TikTok yesterday.

@yabooknerdlibrarian Question: how do you keep going back to your goals for the year and mark progress or new goals??? #goals #newyear #resolutions #journal #lists #notebook ♬ original sound - Jennifer @YA Book Nerd 📚📚📚

I'm hopeful that these changes will help me make it through the year with the notebook and not forget about it halfway through. 

Maybe I should set aside time each month for a recap/revision.

Do you journal your year? How does it work for you?

Happy New Year!

Sure I have areas about myself that I want to work on. But then I read a tweet

Already seeing a lot of wild 2020 goals and pressure and not so great stuff. So here's what I say you should do in 2020: be you. Unapologetically. Relentlessly. Wholly.

And I changed my mind. I can still work on ways to improve myself, but I'm also going to use my strengths to make this year amazing for me and the people in my life.

Thanks Hafsah for these words of wisdom!
