Goal Series- An Emma Grede Roadmap Pt.1

I had an idea about what my 2026 goals should be, but if I'm being honest, I haven't put enough time into thinking, praying, and writing them down. I only knew that I would spend most of my time this year focusing on things I wanted instead of things my job wanted from me.

I stumbled across this video while scrolling on YouTube, "Roadmap Your Goals: A Business Plan for Your Life," by Emma Grede, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_2UP23Rfh0 and it was exactly what I needed. She says that in order to properly set goals, you need to start with these five questions:

1. What goals have you had that you didn't achieve and why?

2. What are 3 things you wish you did more of last year?

3. What are you avoiding and what are you scared of doing?

4. What do you want to learn in the year to come?

5. What habits do you want to create and what boundaries should you establish?

   
   

In this series, I will create a post for each question and then conclude the series with my goals. Emma mentioned the list should include personal and professional goals and that you shouldn't have more then ten written.

If you haven't set goals yet for 2026, don't worry. It's better to wait and align properly than create goals that just sounds good.

See you for Part 2!
