Part One: How to Get Started on your 2019 Goals

Have you ever set a goal in January and completely forgotten about it a few weeks later? It's so defeating, isn't it? Feeling like you fell off the bandwagon. Feeling like you didn't follow through again.

There's a better way! Instead of rushing to set goals you're going to forget about on January 1, we’re going to do things differently.

PowerSheets Prep Week is here, and these next few days will help you feel prepared for the new year, ready to take action on PowerSheets goals that matter deeply to you. 

No more doing the same things you’ve always done and getting the same results you've always gotten. You're about to get clear about the right goals for your unique life and season!

Cultivated goals are about growing what you’ve been given–what you already have: your relationships, your money, your possessions, your work, your children, your home, your health, and your time. A little intentional forethought goes a long way!

We’re starting now so that you’ll have everything you need when it comes time to dig in! Whether you’re jumping into the Prep Work today with us, have already gotten started, or know your PowerSheets will be waiting under the Christmas tree for you, everything you need will be right here on the Cultivate blog (yes, including Instagram stories!).

Over the next week, our team will be breaking down our proven goal setting process to help you uncover goals that matter to you. This isn't a one-sided conversation, though! We want to hear from YOU! Use the hashtags #PowerSheets and #PowerSheetsPrepWeek to share your progress throughout the week. 

Here's a breakdown of what to expect and where we'll be:

• Daily blog posts every morning at 9 am ET
• Instagram story shares from Team Cultivate all week long (these will be saved in our Highlights, too!)
• Facebook Live kickoff on Monday, December 3rd at noon ET
• Goal Coaching with Lara on Cultivate What Matters Instagram on Tuesday, December 4th at 3 pm ET
• A free live workshop on Thursday, December 6th at 3 pm ET
• Facebook Live with next steps on Friday, December 7th at noon ET

Ready to know the first step? Write your name on page 5. Add a few stickers, too! Yes, that's it! Writing your name and today's date signals a turning point. It is the day that everything changes—the day you've decided to do things differently. You are saying no to the fear of failing, comparison, and overnight results. You are embracing goals connected to your why, little by little progress, and celebrating every step of the way!
