Happy New Year! It is time to challenge ourselves and set goals for sewing in 2023. In this episode we share 10 questions to answer that help you reflect and prepare your mindset for setting goals in the new year. Answering these 10 questions helps put your priorities into perspective of things you want to do better or accomplish this year. We talk about using the S.M.A.R.T. steps to help set achievable goals. S.M.A.R.T. stands for: Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant & Time Bound. Once you have a SMART goal, write it down and find a friend to hold you accountable. 76% of people who write down their goals and provided weekly progress to a friend successfully achieved their goals. This result is 33% higher than those with unwritten goals. Use a word doc, spreadsheet or calendar to keep track of your goals and the activities you need to complete to reach your end goal. I LOVE using Artful Agenda to keep track of everything going on in my life in one pretty place accessible anytime on my phone, computer or tablet.
