Why You Should Make a Goal for Yourself Every Month
NO MORE waiting for New Years to create a goal for yourself.
Goals are what keep you going, what keeps you striving to improve your life, and what keeps you mentally strong.
Goals are super important for our personal development, and yet so hard to sustain.
So many of us set goals for our selves that are close to impossible. We set ourselves up for failure and then feel guilty for not accomplishing that which we set out to do.
By creating a monthly goal for yourself, you can stick to it, and with every passing month, keep the habit or learn from your strength it took to stick it out for 30 days.
Anyone can do anything for 30 days!
You can learn to ride a bike, drink more water, or give up coffee for 30 days.
By having a different goal for each month, you can change your life in just 12 months.
