Our 2020 Goals in Review
Happy New Year!! It’s that time of the year – you know, the goal setting time. Actually, scratch that. Let’s use another word other than “goal”. Goals tend to be forgotten about 3 months into the year. They become more so “dreams” and less tangible. Let’s create some VISIONS for 2021! What do you visualize when you think of your optimal self? For us, it’s better to create a visualization for where we want to be in 12 months rather than just a list of bucket list items (although these are also fun to cross off when you can, so we do include a few). It’s about seeing a direct path and planning accordingly so that you purposefully get where you want to be, not because you just happened to stumble there after putting in some effort every couple of months. But before we get to our 2021 visions, let’s go over our 2020 goals see what we made possible (despite the pandemic), what did not make possible (because.. pandemic), what changed in our priorities and what we need to really focus on if we want it to happen in 2021.

Even if you don’t complete the “goals” that you first planned for yourself, it doesn’t mean you didn’t accomplish other super awesome stuff that may have been even bigger and better than your actual goals! Obviously, for us with the pandemic, this put a lot of our plans on the back burner, or they were postponed to 2021. For us, 2020 was a huge year of putting our mental and physical health first over things like followers, travel, etc. Now, on to next year…

Phew! I know our list is a little shorter this year than last, but that’s because our vision #1 on the list will be taking up a lot of our time, and we’re perfectly okay with that. 🙂 That may sound like a lot but we’re dreamers and doers and 2021 is going to be the best year yet! Can’t wait to be back at this same seat 365 days from now, crossing off all 10!
