Why Setting Personal Goals Matters for Your Success

“ We have to make commitments to ourselves because we cannot succeed if we are alone, unfulfilled, and not pouring back into ourselves.” – Kelsea Koenreich

Do you have goals outside of your career? 
Are you finding yourself running on autopilot and never fully not fully in the present? 
Do you feel you’re living outside your true purpose and potential? 

Once upon a time, I was addicted to the party lifestyle. When that way of life no longer served me, I moved on to being obsessed with fitness and nutrition. 
 
Not too long after, my business became my next obsession and my attempt to feel fulfilled in life… but I was still empty.
 
After a lot of inner work, I finally realized my emptiness came from a lack of investment in myself. I wasn’t giving any thought or attention to my goals or desires and it was leaving me feeling hollow - something had to change.
 
While success looks different to all of us, goal setting remains to be a major part of its foundation. Setting goals outside of your work nurtures balance, purpose, and fulfillment in your everyday life. 

If you notice you’re unhappy and unfulfilled in your life, despite your best efforts, then listen up because this episode is for you!

In this episode, you will learn:

• How to appreciate the success you’ve already achieved
• The importance of having a clear goals and expectations
• How to be uncomfortable while growing
  
  

The most productive self-development is born during struggles, so I encourage you to embrace your current struggle and reflect on your life goals.
 
Draw these goals out, and if you find you cannot reach these goals alone, it is OKAY to ask for help until you can.
 
Remember, you are deserving and can be successful and happy at the same time.

P.S. If you found value in this, I would absolutely love it if you would screenshot
