MOVE FWD 2025 Goal Planning Guide Introduction More people than ever are ditching goal planning, and honestly, it's for good reasons. New Year's resolutions often feel like January resolutions--great at the start but rarely finished. If that resonates with you, this guide is for you. We've all been there--starting new ideas, goals, and plans feels like opening a big present on Christmas morning--exciting at first but often fleeting. What if you could shift from being a chronic starter to a chronic finisher? Imagine finishing every goal you start. What would that mean for your life? Would you be healthier, write that book, or grow your company? Take a moment to picture what success looks like for you. This guide is designed to set you up for success in achieving your goals. It focuses on three essential phases: Phase One: The Big Picture - Your Year at 30,000 Phase Two: Your Month - Lead Goals That Set Your Direction Phase Three: Daily Actions Each phase includes three simple steps to take you from starting strong to finishing even stronger. Let's get started! Vision -- Understanding your "why." Alignment -- Defining your "how." Execution -- Taking action with purpose. www.movefwd.co Copyright © 2024.

This guide is a great starting point, but the most successful clients combine it with monthly accountability through our coaching program. When goals fall short, it's usually for one of these reasons: 1. The goal wasn't right or at least not "right for you". One year, I set a goal to wake up at 5:00 am because I heard it was what "successful people" do. But I hate early mornings and love staying up late. I failed until I adjusted it to 5:45 am Monday through Friday. A good goal fits you. 2. You didn't really care. Sometimes, we set goals we think we should want but don't truly care about. For example, I once aimed to color-coordinate my shirts in my closet. It looked great for a week, but I realized I didn't care enough to maintain it. Your "why" matters. 3. Poor planning. Often, I've failed because I didn't follow through on planning and execution. Success demands strategy and consistency. This is where coaching is helpful. To identify gaps in your plan, make necessary adjustments, and maintain accountability to stay on track. Courage is being scared, but choosing to move forward anyway. www.movefwd.co Copyright © 2024.

It can take 1-2 days to complete. It's about clarifying what you want to achieve and envisioning your life 12, 24, or 48 months from now. Who do you want to be? Where do you want to be? Invest time here--it will pay off all year long. Step 2: Alignment Reflect on what you want to achieve by exploring five key areas of your life. Dream big and reflect deeply. Here are the five areas to focus on: Faith: What beliefs ground and inspire you? How can you grow spiritually or reflect more on your purpose? Family: What kind of parent, sibling, or partner do you want to be? How can you strengthen your relationships? Finances: Where do you want to be professionally and financially? What milestones do you want to reach? Fitness: How will you prioritize your health--physically, mentally, and emotionally? Friends: Who supports your success? How can you build or deepen connections? Start with 3-4 big goals for each area. As you proceed, narrow it down to 2-3. Step 3: Execution Share your goals with a coach or trusted friend who provides constructive feedback. Be selective about who you share with--not everyone will understand or support your ambitions. Choose 2-3 goals per area that excite you the most, and write them down. You're ready for Phase 2. www.movefwd.co Fear is a feeling not a fact. Copyright © 2024.

Annual goals are lag goals--you see results later. Monthly goals, or lead goals, focus on actions that drive progress toward those results. Step 2: Alignment Plan your monthly steps 2-4 days before the start of each month. Look at your schedule and adjust for commitments like vacations or seasonal challenges. For example, if your goal is to run 40 miles in February, plan for bad weather by splitting the distance between outdoor and indoor runs. Adaptability is key. Step 3: Execution Document your monthly goals in a format you'll see daily, such as a spreadsheet or planner. The biggest obstacle to achieving goals isn't inability--it's forgetting them amid daily distractions. www.movefwd.co Copyright © 2024.

If the big-picture dreaming of Phase 1 felt abstract, this phase will ground you in tangible progress. Step 2: Alignment Plan your daily actions the night before. Identify 2-3 critical tasks that will have the most significant impact on your goals. Focus your energy there. Step 3: Execution Use a daily planner to track your top tasks, notes, action steps, and other important metrics. Consistency in small, focused actions leads to big results.
