The Journal I'm Using to CRUSH My Goals 💜

[@JashiiCorrin]

Hi team! 💜 Hope you enjoyed the goals setup, and are getting excited to tackle your goals 💪 What something you're eager to work on next year? 🤔 Also, on the off chance you dropped into the comments to tell me I missed the 'C' in reflection 😛 I know, haha 💜 I was going to comment on it in the voice over, but sometimes when we try to correct mistakes, it just ends up drawing more attention to them so I left it 🤙 plus, if this journal is supposed to be a place where I can be a bit more messy, might as well start now 😋

[@xhaustedDancer]

Ooooh so the uncomfy section made me think of this thing that some of my old friends used to talk about which is Comfort Zone Expansion - which we shorten to "CoZE" (pronounced "cozy") and every once in a while we'd get together to do "CoZE activities" - basically we'd get together, talk about things that made us feel uncomfy and that we wanted to work on, and then go do the thing. It was anxiety-inducing but fun! because we always celebrated together afterwards :)

[@somberhoney]

I avoid name page for a completely different reason lol, I'm not scared of it looking ugly but I do go by two different names and I'm unsure which one I want on the page

[@JashiiCorrin]

That’s fair 👏 I used to do either Jess, or JashiiCorrin, but nowadays I mainly go with Jess 😊💜

The holiday vortex is one of the reasons I do my yearly reflection and goal setting at the December Solstice instead of on December 31 or January 1.

[@darke_master]

That last week of the year is definitely weird in terms of time. I call it the Holiday Time Anomaly 😅. A lot of my goals for 2024 revolve around starting my business, which I'm doing in January 😱. I used one of your goal videos from last year to set them up and it was super helpful. I really like this framework you have and I'm looking forward to your course. Thank you for great goal content!

[@JashiiCorrin]

Most welcome! 😄💜 awesome to hear you used it to set your goals 💪 exciting about your business!

[@zanderg7048]

I'm so happy to know that someone else understands the holiday time warp lol

[@shanyavirasinghe8591]

Not really a goal setter but found this interesting. Have been watching your pride and potion bottles themed setup on repeat, trying to figure out how to adapt it for my May 2024 theme ❤

[@JashiiCorrin]

Glad you found it interesting 😄 that was a great theme, and cool you’re going to do a version for yourself 🥳pub

[@chellesofbooks]

I admit, I get easily overwhelmed by goals. I'll make a list of goals I want to achieve and try to break it down into quarters, but then something in my life will happen, ie: my Nana had a stroke earlier this year and needed to move into a rest home, and I had to clean out her home to put on the market. Suddenly my goals have no room to breathe because I'm so busy doing for others and lost the time or energy to focus on myself. I have one goal for 2024 to ensure I don't let my commitment to others take away all my personal energy and time like it did this year, but again, I'm not sure how to appropriately prepare for this. SMART goals and I don't get along either, I find that being too specific with a goal makes me less inclined to do it in the time I set out for it and then it feels like I've failed. So long story short, I'm looking forward to learning more about your upcoming course, Jess. And as always, thanks so much for sharing your valuable content with us here on KZbin xx

[@JashiiCorrin]

Thanks Chelle 💜 it can be so tough when we have these intentions for ourselves and then "life happens". Maintaining your personal energy is a great goal for 2024 👏

[@Allthejournals]

HELP! First time journaler here! I've started bullet/scrapbook journaling and i can't seem to stop wanting to set up my bujo! Like, literally, I want to do something to/with it every day! I now have made a gratitude journal, a memory journal, a work journal, a personal journal, and I'm aiming to add a travel journal! I'm addicted to setting them up! How do I tame this need to use more journals?!?!

[@chelseawachholz5142]

I like that you point out that time is different in the merry time of Christmas. It's a vortex similar to what happens on weekends. 😂

[@emilielancour236]

I appreciate you doing the live where you worked through the planning of how you were going to set up your journal and then obviously this one where you set it up. I am using the same journal and starting a goal journal for the first time. I have set up six major areas that I would like to be consistent in activities or complete something new. One of the things I'm planning to do for my small business is start a podcast.

[@JashiiCorrin]

That’s exciting! 😄💜 I’ve been curious about podcast starting myself (but have enough going on that the moment that it’s for sure not the right time for that 😂) Hope yours goes well! 💪

[@sumonasengupta6464]

You should do lettering style videos as well I love all the lettering styles you use in your journals ❤

[@Lyssa.8824]

I was just coming to say something along these lines! I love that lettering in the videos.

[@corkspa]

I'm looking forward to your course! Love the setup. One of the things I am going to try to work on this year is KEEPING my office tidy. I'm taking inspiration from all your declutter videos and am going to go through my office (again) and try to actually get it fully set up and then keep it that way. Considering at the current moment the only space on my desk is where my arms go and everything else is just in various piles around me its going to be a long term goal, lol.

[@JashiiCorrin]

It’s a worthwhile project to tackle! 💜 keeping things tidy can be a real struggle 😝

[@liviacraftsandbooks]

I feel you! 😅

[@ChaiseDetective]

Ok so in order to prepare for the video came out today I had to come back to this one (along with the live workshop) to finally prepare my Goal Journal. I cannot wait for your course so that some of this can really come together for me. Thank you for all you are doing Jess.

[@marydoyle6254]

I have been a big fan of your goal setting set ups lovely, and trying to implement this into my life im finding challenging as i can easily be steered of coarse, so for me any teaching from you I would be 100% grateful for 😊👌 xxx

[@bleeharvey]

Love this video! I love goal setting and have tried so many different ways to set them. Looking forward to trying your course to learn something new!

I have visited different parts of this video and your other goal journal planning video multiple times

[@kariikosmos3005]

Im so looking forward to your course. Id volunteer to try it out to sure 😅😝 Id love to see a video from you reviewing all the non fiction goal and planning books you've read. Which you found helpful and which you didn't, etc. 😊🤩

[@JashiiCorrin]

That’d make for a fun series 💜😄

[@ChantelleArts]

this is an awesome idea! I'm only using one or two pages for goals currently, I think something like this might overwhelm me ❤❤

[@JashiiCorrin]

That's fair 💜 I find that I feel more connected to my goals if they've been thoroughly thought out before setting them, and planned out before actioning them 💪

[@sugarandhoneybujo]

i’m excited to do more art shows next year! i have some fun goals related to that

[@JashiiCorrin]

That sounds awesome! 😄💜

[@MEfromson]

Your free resource library is great, thank you! I love the braindump trigger list, though I would submit that 'trigger' is a bad word to use since it means something else in today's day and age... I would replace it with 'catalyst' because then I can be a dork and recommend your Braindump CataList. 🤪

[@JashiiCorrin]

I’m a bit the opposite on that one, because to me, it kind of means the same thing in both ways 😝 like triggering a negative emotion or response vs triggering a thought 🤔 term also isn’t mine though, it comes from David Allen’s book “Getting Things Done” 😛

[@JashiiCorrin]

Love the play on words though! 😂

[@ChaiseDetective]

Top Tier as always Jess, Thank you for dropping this!!!!!!! I am so excited for your upcoming course. I am more of these are the projects for the quarter that have come from all of this reflection & evaluation.. Also, I hope A&O aren't coating their pages... they don't play nice with my pens.

Yeah it’s only been those two journals that I’ve experienced it in 🤔 so I’m keeping tabs on it 👀

[@ajmaceywrites]

*shudders* smart goallllssssss bleh 😂 But yay course! I’ve been on the look out for any news you’ve had for it since you first mentioned you were developing one cause I’m so excited🎉

[@JashiiCorrin]

Haha thanks AJ! I’m hoping for a Q1 next year release 👏

[@AmbersJourney13]

as a left-handed person, the smudging would drive me crazy! but the cover is so cool. I love watching your videos that are like tutorial/idea videos. I always need help with goals and how to actually do them.

[@JashiiCorrin]

Yeah I can imagine the smudging would be way worse for our left-handed team 😅 glad you enjoy the videos! 💜

[@Laura-je2uw]

Great video. Regarding goal systems, what never vibed woth me were these level 10 life evaluating systems. I always think either i am satisfied with a certain aspect of my life and want to set goals to change it or not. When i give a value 3 or 5 to social interactions for example that does nothing emotionally for me. Either i am happy with the interactions or not and i want to change them. That was also one point that bothered me with the makselife goal system.

[@JashiiCorrin]

Fair 👏 If I were to pick my own scale, one that was more simplified, it’d probably be a 4 point system 😝 something like quite displeased, a little displeased, pleased, very pleased with 💜 a lot of the time, 10 points is too much of a range for me too

[@Cordelia0704p]

Its blue! 😂 I like these ideas. I usually buy a preprinted goal planner for each year, but I get very annoyed with them. Its a system on repeat that doesnt necessarily work for everything. Making one from scratch would be much easier to customize. Signed up for the course notification but the email confirmation never came. I'm not sure if its slow, a glitch or if its because I already have a login for your shop. If I'm not on the list let me know I'll try it again. I dont want to swamp your list if I dont have to! I need to work on being more consistent this year. Flying by the seat of your pants has a lot of flexibility, but there are too many ways to screw up a lot of things 😀

[@castorj.b.1257]

I find a lot of goals advice/systems, don't work particularly well with the ups and downs of life. I have a chronic illness that flares up from time to time. I end up getting really disheartened trying to set and keep to goals because a lot of advice involves setting deadlines... and then I get sick for a couple months and end up missing those deadlines and even though that's not my fault, I end up feeling like I've failed. I've yet to find any goals system that really addresses that. Last year I set myself 'directions' rather than goals, and simply outlined rough areas I wanted to focus on, without pinpointing any particular end goals... but then I don't get that achievement feeling/dopamine hit.

[@JashiiCorrin]

It’s certainly a tricky balancing act with that kind of situation, yeah 💜 We want that feeling of accomplishment from checking something off as achieved or completed, but need to be flexible enough so that when life does that life thing, it doesn’t derail and demotivate us because the vision of “success” was too rigid 😅

[@jude5673]

Hi, I also have a chronic illness that can wipe out a lot of my time. I love Jess’s approach to this for 2024- weeks and cycles and reset weeks because I’m thinking the resets can be used to recalibrate my goals and tasks if I’ve had a period of ill health. I’m going to give myself grace because it isn’t our fault we get sick. That was I can celebrate being well again and sit down and work out what I can still get done/ get to do. Hopefully the new system works for you and 2024 is a better health year.
