Thank you for making this video I did not have a clue how to fill it out xx

[@BridgettEdwards]

Thank you for this! You broke it down so clearly that I’m now excited to do mine! Love to see how everything’s transferred into your planner now

Thank you! That spread can be a little intimidating at first, so I’m glad I could help

This is such a great video. Very helpful walkthrough of how to set up goals!

Thank you so much for this! I often get intimidated by goal setting (especially the "someday" goals) and I love how you made this spread work for you. You have some awesome ideas in here that I'll definitely be using :) Happy New Year!

Thanks for sharing this 😊. I use a similar approach but don’t use a title/topics as I use the first column for the vision and the someday column to say how I will know I have achieved my goal or what having reached the goal look like (the why you want to reach the goal, if you like). The rest of the columns I use as you do. I hope you don’t mind a suggestion - it helped me quite a bit when I started doing this - when writing your vision don’t write it as another to-do eg become debt free, instead write it as if you are there, so in this case it would be I am debt free. My next column would then be something like … Instead of paying off debts I can save to retire early, I travel, I can work part time, I can buy a new car etc. Thanks again - I’d be interested in following you through the trackers and quarterly pages as you follow through in 2024.

Hi Dorothy! I LOVE the approach you suggested. I believe in the power of the tongue, so stating the vision as if you’re already there is a great way to stay motivated and manifest your new reality. Thank you for sharing!

It was good to see the breakdown more clearly with this planner so thanks for sharing. I've created my own pages since I couldn't fit what I wanted into the planner but I've taken some notes from this to incorporate. I easily have more than one goal per category and I'm working to define what is actually a goal compared to projects or tasks. Being a blatant creative my little nudge question for you is where's your category for creativity/fun/recreation? 😉

[@papermemia]

I love that question! I have always had a passion for creativity (I sketch). However, I know that since having kids, I haven’t prioritized my passions as much, so thank you for being the mirror I needed. I’m excited to figure out what that goal will be 😊

Debt Free! Praise God!
