Set better goals with this FREE guide
03/31/25 - Monday

Sometimes we set goals with the best intentions, but they don’t always stick.
Maybe they start strong and then fade or they sound great at first but we lose momentum along the way.
The thing is, goals don’t fizzle out because we’re lazy or bad at follow-through. They fade away when we don’t have a strong enough reason to stick with them.
💭 Think about this.
If your goal is to save more money, is it to stop living paycheck to paycheck, take that dream trip, buy a house, or finally pay off debt for some peace of mind?
Or if you want to work out more, is it about feeling stronger, having more energy for your kids, or simply dancing without running out of breath?
When your “why” is clear, taking action becomes way easier. Instead of relying on motivation (which comes and goes), you’re building a habit around something that truly matters to you.
So before you set another goal, take a second to ask yourself: Why do I actually want this?
