Who's already start thinking about your goals? Let me know if any of this resonated with you today!!! (And if my videos have helped you, please share with a friend!)

I did not follow my plans this quarter at all. I got into a funk and am finally coming out the other side. I am thinking about my goals for 2023 as it is also the year I turn 40. 🎉

I've been following you and this channel for over a year now. I've never felt more confident that I will 1) set REASONABLE goals and, 2) that I'm on the right path to achieving them.

Me❤️

On another channel, I saw a method of goal setting, that reminded me of another thing I had come across and that all gelled in my mind. And it is just another way of saying what you are saying. But, sometimes people learn things in different ways, so I thought I could type it up here, in case it resonates with someone else. First a tiny back story. The previous thing I had come across was "but first..." syndrome (Thanks FlyLady!). Which means that you see something or think of something that needs to be done, but first...you need to do this other thing, but to do that thing, but first you need to do this third thing...And so on, a "not so good" habit, because the first thing never gets done, because of perfectionism. The goal thing was to work backwards from your goal in steps in order to figure out what steps you need to fulfill your goal. Combining the two, it finally clicked for me, that I could use that to break down my goals into ever smaller steps. (I've always just thought of GOAL!, but not how to get there, as you said above). So, my new method: Take a goal - and write it at the top of a sheet of paper, or preferred note taking place. Then under it, write the "but first". you need to finally get that goal Then under it, write the "but first" you need to get to the above step Then under it, write the "but first" you need to get to the previous step And so on, till you get to something that you can start today. A single step you can take right now with no "But first". Then you now know every step you need to do to the goal, it can help you see in a visual manner how long it might take to get there, and with each step on the ladder, you are preparing yourself climbing to the next rung (like you said, start with the person you are today, take each step to get to the new you!). So, that worked for my brain. I hope it helps someone else to "click".

You did it! 60.3k and one more day to go ❤️ I can relate with sacrificing everything and it not paying off. I am so in debt over working for a college degree as a single mom of two only to reach my childhood dream of being a teacher and not being able to support my family and society telling me (and every other teacher) that we are nothing but complete trash.

For me, my mom always told me that no matter how far or fast you run you will always run into yourself. I think it has been healthier to recognize what I am willing to put the effort toward rather than jumping into who I think I should be. I love seeing people that are put together with hair and nail and makeup and accessories all done.... probably never going to be me. But I can start with getting my hair done quarterly.

Doggone it, I want to be the Pinterest board me right now!! Seriously, though, this was hugely helpful! Thank you for the wonderful reality check and helping to pick my goals for this year.

My favorite part... You reminding us that we set goals because of how we think achieving that goal will make us feel, but that we shouldn't lose track of how we feel along the way. It's such an important thing to remember, and yet, so easy to forget about.

I love the fact that you should be realistic about your self, your habits set realistic goals!

I've rewatched this a few times since you published it. It's really helpful for me whenever I watch a video on rapid releasing or '50k in 3 days' writathons. I start trying to set insane goals, and I have to tell myself to chill out and 'meet myself where I am.' When I get ahead of myself, I don't just burn my candle at both ends... I toss my candle straight into the fire and melt it into a blob. 😂

These are the words of wisdom I needed to hear while planning for 2023. Thank you so much, from the bottom of my heart.

Slow and steady! I think that is what makes success attainable and sustainable.

I'm watching this Jan 2, and the channel's at over 60K! So yay! You're being extra loud for me in this new year, and I've missed it. I'm excited for 2023 even more than ever now!

I never set goals that are dependent on other people's actions. I set goals on my own production activities and then results that involve other people just takes care of themselves.

I always set goals that are outside of my control, because I find it a better metric for determining whether my actions are inspiring the right outcome. But that being said, I also don't give myself a hard time if I don't hit the exact goal. It's a mix for me!

Whenever I start to get sidetracked, you motivate me back on track! Thank you so much for all the effort you put into your videos and showing up.

This was maybe the best video I've seen on your channel (and I always enjoy your content )-- and one of those times that make you wish there was a way to hit "Like" twice (or even subscribe twice!). Here's to a stellar 2023!

Loved this so much, thank you! In particular 'not at the cost of my mental health'

Yessssss!!! My gawd I’ve been struggling with this for the past couple years! Thank you for putting it into words and giving us a solution. I wish I could like this video 1,000 times!

Something about this struck a chord so strongly for me. Thank you.

So glad to hear this!!

I spent the better part of last night trying to set my goals and choose my planners it was like you heard my struggles LOL thanks for your content I appreciate it

I was just thinking how i should change my goal setting because none of my goals end up making me happy and seem kind of flat. Thank you so much for this amazing video!

Thank you. This is why I sing your praises. Because I need this and so many other creatives need. You can’t be an artist and not get grace. Again thank you.

I really wish I could go back and hug my past self who set goals for the year in January and beat myself up when March came and I was already behind. There there, it's okay. "Setting goals is like setting your location on your mental GPS..." I think I heard my brain explode when you said that, Sarra. Plus I can set goals in 90 day increments? Another brain blast. I really needed to hear this right now. And perfect timing for me to join the HB90 as my birthday is next week (it'll be my gift to myself). I also feel excited about 2023. It's gonna be my year! Thanks, Sarra :-)

Aaaaaaahhh Sarra, I have so been feeling this! I have been beating myself up this fall, so thank you for giving me permission to be who I am!

I can’t wait for December 11th - HB90 Q1 launch day!! If anyone happens to see this comment, you should consider HB90. Next quarter will be my second using the system. I didn’t achieve more this quarter than I would have - quite possibly the opposite. But what I wanted to achieve would have left me massively burned out and wasn’t even aligned with my vision for my life, so in the long run it is much better this way. The self kindness of this system is really something. HB90 takes toxic productivity and flips it on it’s head. I have a feeling next quarter I will get more done than I have in a long time AND it will be in the right direction.

Such relevant statements about starting where we actually are and not where we wish we were. But 2023 is for me! I know it in my bones (that or it's the 65 years catching up with me! lol). I am doing things I enjoy and putting less pressure on myself. I know I have to build in more 'down' time. I am also at the age where I can audit 1 class a semester at UNC-Charlotte (your old stomping grounds). And since gardening is a big part of me, I am enrolled, starting in February, to become a Master Gardener in my county. There are several 'new' pulls on my time, while there are old goals which have been hanging around for 20 years now. But I am approaching them much more realistically now. Can't wait!

I don’t know what kind of magic you use but somehow you say exactly what I need to hear. Resonate really isn’t a strong enough word. I moved into my own house this past September. I think I had hoped it would fix everything. It did make my life so much better but my mental illness is still with me. I empathised so hard when you said that you got there into the house and then were pissed that you weren’t happy as that is me right now. It’s frustrating and disappointing and I am sad. This is my fresh start and I feel like I am ruining it. But what you said about goals being a compass point, not a thing of themselves is something I need to take to heart. I have still made progress and I need to not dismiss that like I always do. Nothing matters if I don’t meet the target but then I just constantly disappoint myself so like you said negative momentum. Honestly I could quote your whole video. You are so relatable with this. Changing my mental feelings seems impossible but I may just watch this on repeat until it drums into my head 😂 thank you!

I just had to switch this off and come back to it. Holy what the heck. A goal is just a moment in time and it won’t set you up for life. There will always be another goal. I’ve lived this a thousand times why did that hit me right between the eyes …. Thank you for making this NOW before I start another year with too much effort for zero to little reward. 13:18 We plan as if we’re going to show up differently than where we are now. Again - picks jaw up from floor

EVERYONE needs to hear this. Gold! 🥇

I’m watching this first week of January, and you’re over that 60K ❤ congratulations 🍾🎊

Grats on the 60k! Have a wonderful new year.

Thank you, a lot of this really resonated with me. I have a chronic illness (rheumatoid arthritis) and I’ve been trying to make my work from home dreams come true for 10 years now. My vision of what I want has changed often (following what others say I should do or wanting to be like someone else’s) and I just don’t have the energy some days to show up for myself let alone a community who depends on me. I still struggle with which direction to head in, I have so many ideas. I feel like encouraging other moms with RA is the greatest thing I could do but it is also the hardest because I don’t want to fail at it and it takes a toll on me to share my story. There are plenty of things I’m passionate about (planning and reading among them). I tried your hb90 planner today. It is a cloudy and rainy day so of the 20 blocks I had thought I could do, I only got done 10. I think one of my rewards if I achieve the best level of my goals for q1 is to join the hb90 course for q2. 😊

Great tips. Glad I watched this video before I work on my business plan for 2023 this weekend. Glad your life is happier, more fulfilling and safer now.

I think I was in the second HB90 class and I still use it it’s principles. I love it. Thank you Sarra for being such an inspiration to so many.

The way I felt seen watching this video... In a good way most of the time haha. I'm very glad I watched this before starting HB90 bootcamp again on Sunday. This really resonated with me across the board, especially given what I want to focus on for next year. Thank you for such an amazing video and content!

I'm going to get there while taking care of myself resonates with me so so much.

Thank you so much! I was waiting for this. It reminded me to keep my goals aligned with who I want to be rather than what I want to achieve .Thanks again and God Bless!

I work towards my goals. But sometimes I find that while working towards it, I don't actually want it as much as I thought.

I recommended the 12 week year by Brian P. Moran and Michael Lennington (they also have a 12 week year for writers that I haven't read but it is on Kindel unlimited)

I love these videos. I think the thing that resonated most was "set goals from where you are today, not who you want to be.

This was an aha moment...We act like we can "plan for the next year as if we are going to show up differently," what we need to do is, "set goals that allow us to create the habits" needed to become the person we want to be and achieve the goals we want to achieve. Love it--thank you!

Hi Sarra. I'm so ready to set up new planners. I think the thing that resonated most is that we have to make the changes incremental - which is where both HB90 and 6m4l come in to play. I have to step into the habits... not try to ride the escalator all the way to the top in one fell swoop. Thanks for the reminder. Creative Blessings!

I am excited to do you 2023 manifestation class! I hope you are still doing it.

Wonderful video! I really resonated with what you said about the 2D/3D person. I already know that 2023 will be challenging goal wise as I'm going back to a job this Jan that takes all my energy, dare I say soul sucking lol. As a creative I definitely need a way to plan so I don't let it override my creative dreams.

I wasnt financial free until my 40’s and I’m still in my 40’s, bought my second house already, earn on a monthly through passive income and got 4 out of 5 goals, just hope it encourages someone that it doesn’t matter if you don’t have any of them right now, you can start TODAY regardless your age INVEST and change your future!
