We'll answer questions like:

• How might my goal act as a road block in actually achieving it?
  
• What should I be focusing on when I set goals?
  
• Why is it important to hone in on how I want to feel when setting goals?
  
• How do I build habits to support my goals?
  

"Who are you becoming?"

When setting goals, we often put most, if not all, of the emphasis on the thing we want to accomplish. When making habits, it's important to think more about who you are becoming than hitting your goal. Ask yourself what habits do you need to build in order to become the person you need to be to achieve your goal.

Remember that to get from point A (setting your goal) to point B (achieving your goal), there's a process. It doesn't just happen in an instance. There's a lot of personal growth involved and it's important to make sure you know who you're becoming in the process.

"What are you holding onto that you should be stepping away from?"

We all have things that we are afraid to let go of, even when we know that our lives would be better off without them. Whether it's a harmful habit, toxic person, or job you hate, it's important to leave it behind!

When setting goals, if you already have something holding you back from personal growth or even achieving your goal entirely, reaching your goals will be so much harder.

"I am loving the process because I'm becoming a better version of myself."

You won't achieve your goals if you don't love the process! Or you will but it'll leave you feeling MISERABLE, and no one wants that! The process of achieving your goals probably won't be easy and you're going to need to put in a lot of work. But find gratitude in the process and all of its challenges because of who you're becoming as a result.
