Summary

I love setting goals for the new year. It usually happens for me in December, but better late than never! If you haven't set goals for the year yet, don't despair, let's jump in together! Listen in to my 12 goals for 2022: Listen to the Podcast: You can find all the links and notes for this episode below! Right click here and save-as to download this episode to your computer. For the first time ever, I've picked a theme for my year instead of a word. My theme this year is: The Year of Transition. It's shaping my intentionality as I approach some new projects and things this year. You can listen to my podcast episode on the topic above, but my goals for this year are coming out of this theme for the year. I've got 3 main areas that I'm setting goals in this year: Transition in my Personal goals Transition in our family goals Transition in our business & ministry Transition in my Personal Goals: I love setting personal goals for myself. I know for some people it stresses them out, but for me, it helps motivate me. My biggest part of my personal theme this year, is working on transitioning into more solid routines. In 2021, we survived working in the margins of a busy year. This year, I'm working on making more solid routines all around for more transitions to come. Read 104 books this year (I transitioned this down from 130 books) Establish a solid morning routine that becomes easy to stick to Read the Bible twice this year (A big part of better morning routines) As a result of better routines, take nights and weekends off Transition in our Family Goals: Teach the older boys 20 recipes they can cook entirely on their own (cook 20 recipes with the middle 3 kids) Play more board games (together and as a family) Read more fiction series with the kids (better routines to find the time for this) Take the children out on one on one dates monthly Transition in Business & Ministry: THIS is the area, that if we can really solidify, will help us in the other areas of goals. We are so thankful for a small business that we run with just an internet connection, but it's also easy to take over all corners and margins. I want to transition from a soloprenuer idea to a small business owner over seeing a team. It's a BIG transition for us. I'm both nervous and excited about it.

Welcome to the Finding Joy in Your Home Podcast. I am your host, Jamie Valmay, and this is the podcast where we blend to deeply theological topics with thoroughly practical application, all for God's glory.

0:12.2

Hey, friends, welcome back. We are just blowing through January. I feel like every January we hit that, where you're like, where has the year gone already?

0:21.8

But especially when we have our online conference at the beginning of January, I really can't believe that it's already almost February.

0:29.0

So we're going to talk about goals today.

0:31.5

And this is a conversation that usually happens for me in my head and then here on the podcast, sometime in December.

0:39.4

But that is how this year is going. And so I realized I've been thinking about goals. I had

0:45.0

written a couple of them down. I had some, I had a reading goal. I had my Bible reading goal also.

0:49.9

But I realized I hadn't done my full goal setting yet. And in fact, Jason and I still have some more

0:55.6

meetings we need to do about this year in general. And so I thought, you know what? Better late than

1:01.2

never. I need to still do this. I'm a big fan of goal setting. So if you haven't set goals yet for

1:06.9

the year, let's do it together. So I just want to give you that encouragement if you're thinking,

1:10.7

I haven't done it either. And I know not everybody is a goal setter. I was talking to some friends

1:17.3

recently and they're like, you said 12 goals? Like that sounds like more work. And so I think for

1:23.7

some personalities, setting goals and setting 12 goals and breaking them down into different

1:28.2

categories might actually make your brain feel more chaotic. And so if this method of goal setting

1:33.5

doesn't work for you, that's fine. You can sit back. You can listen to what I have set for my year.

1:38.2

But as someone who is definitely a go-getter, I don't sit still very well. And my brain actually needs to categorize things

1:46.6

like this. So it actually helps me. So do goal setting approach your year in whatever way

1:53.5

makes the most sense to you. Okay. That's the biggest thing. So do it in whatever works well for you.

1:58.3

Maybe experiment. Try setting 12 goals or 10 goals or six

2:02.2

goals. Set some different goals and see what works well. And then if that doesn't work,

2:07.6

go simple or go more complicated. For me, 12 is about my sweet spot. I can't really get above 12
