Goal-setting for 2025 ๐

My adhd brain can be a real pain in the butt going in all different directions (aka not knowing where or what I should be focused my energy on). Helloooo brain clutter. Lol. So letโs do a quick exercise diving into my ultimate goal-setting strategy designed for founders and future founders. This process is about taking every idea-dream-goal floating around your noggin, getting them all down on paper and streamlining it into a set of powerful, focused objectives. Easy!
Step 1: Dream Big Brain Dump ๐ง โจ
First up: give yourself permission to think big. Set a timer for 10 minutes and write down absolutely everything you might want to achieve (no matter how ambitious, outrageous, or small it might seem). Ask yourself:
What do I want to learn?
What do I want to have?
Who do I want to become?
What do I want to create or contribute to?
What do I want to experience or try?
What places do I want to go?
Think beyond this year, where do you see yourself in the next decade? Use prompts like:
โMy dream is to ___________.โ
โIn 10 years, I want to ___________.โ
Donโt overthink itโjust get every rough idea onto paper. This step might feel a little overwhelming (your list will be and should be LONG) but itโs the foundation for everything else.
Step 2: Timeframe Tagging ๐
Assign a numberโ1, 3, 5, or 10โto each dream based on the timeframe that you want to achieve it in. Whether it's seeing your biz right through to a successful exit (a solid 10-year dream) or learning how to master FB ads without an agency (a cool 1-year challenge), give each dream its time horizon. (The key here is to be realistic on how long things take.)
Step 3: Distill Your Focus ๐ฏ
Now comes the fun part: narrowing your list to the goals that will define your year. For each timeframe (1, 3, 5, and 10 years), pick 3-5 goals that feel the most meaningful and aligned with what you want. Aim for a mix of goals that span:
Work: Your business, career or creative projects
Health: Mental, physical or emotional well-being
Relationships: Connections with family, friends or community
Step 4: Stay Accountable โ
You've done all the hard work, now let's make sure you actually stay on track. Itโs easy to fall back into old habits. Hereโs how:
Get SMART about your goals: break them down into Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-Bound action plans.
Schedule check-ins to your cal: set quarterly reminders to revisit your list, track progress, and make adjustments as needed.
Celebrate wins: acknowledge every milestone, no matter how small, to keep yourself motivated throughout the year
By staying intentional and revisiting your goals regularly, youโll be in an amazing position to make 2025 the big year youโve been dreaming of.

1/ What would your โCalendar Wrappedโ teach you?
Basically; where are we wasting our timeโฆ. Jumping into Jan is our nudge to recalibrate. Less meetings that go nowhere. More work that feels aligned. Letโs make space for the things that matter in 2025 and get reeeeeeally good at saying no to the inbounds, so we can say yes to ourselves and whatโs aligned to our priorities.
