Set Goals for 2022 and start the new year on a positive note. How to set achievable and manageable goals so that you have a great year and some ideas and examples for goals that you could set.
After the year that was 2021, we are all eager to start 2022 off on the right foot. Whilst we may not be able to control outside circumstances or what might be happening around the world, what we can control is our attitude and our own actions. I’m a firm believer in setting some goals for myself to work towards. Some of the most successful people in the world attribute their success to the fact they set themselves goals and work towards making them happen. The trick to achieving to your goals is once you’ve set them, is to break them down into smaller more achievable steps.
My 2022 Daily and Weekly planners include goal pages that have been specifically designed to help you to break down your goals into achievable targets. There is a yearly goal plan and also monthly goal pages, and pages devoted to your bigger yearly goals where you can break them down into a step by step plan.
