Making resolutions for the new year is extremely popular but I’m no longer a fan. Why? Because often they have to do with telling yourself that something is wrong with you and you need to change. This can be both intimidating and discouraging. Setting goals, on the other hand, are a different way of framing changes. They have a more attainable and encouraging feel. This is why I prefer goals over resolutions.

The other beautiful thing about goals is they don’t have to be huge. Resolutions can feel like they need to be bigger, more impactful and weighty in some way. Goals don’t have to be. They can be small changes, small adjustments. I like the idea of focusing on the three that are most important while still allowing myself the freedom to add others or subtract one. So let’s start this new year talking about your top three goals.

“Often when we have too many goals, or too many projects–too many ways that we are splitting our attention–it makes it much harder to actually focus and achieve whatever it is we are wanting to achieve.” – Dr. Sara DillWhat You’ll Learn
