If you’ve ever sat down in January, written out a big list of everything you want to achieve, felt really motivated for about two weeks, and then watched the whole thing collapse … you’d be forgiven for thinking that maybe goal-setting just isn’t for you.
But I don’t think that’s quite right.
I think goal-setting can work really well for makers. The problem is that we’re usually trying to do it against a massive headwind, and that headwind makes everything harder than it needs to be.
what do you do if your life and business hours are inconsistent, unpredictable or just unconventional and you still want to grow your creative business? Here’s how to set goals that actually work for the life you have — even when your working time is anything but consistent.
There are many reasons why so many of us fail to stick to the goals that we set ourselves.
But a really big one is that quite often, we set goals based on what we want to happen, as opposed to what we’re going to do.
And you might be thinking, isn’t that the way it’s supposed to be?
In January it can seem like the whole world is setting goals and feeling super productive. But if you’re a maker, January can actually be a really difficult time to set new goals and make changes in yourlife and business.
