Top Five Goals for 2023

Hey friends! Since this is the first blog post of 2023, I thought I would do something a little different and share with y’all my five goals for 2023. These goals are for both my business and personal life -

1. Have 2400 followers on Instagram

   Followers aren’t everything, but growing my social media presence successfully can turn my followers into paying clients.

2. Learn to crochet

   I have zero hobbies other than working out. This year, I’m determined to have a new hobby, and I’ve always wanted to learn how to crochet. If you have any tips for how to get started or accounts I should follow, please comment them below.

3. Read 24 books

   An average of 2 books/month. I have a running list of books that I want to read, and I’m always adding more. If you have any must-read books, leave them in the comments. Also, let’s be friends on Good Reads!

4. 60% profit margin

   I closed my 2022 books right under a 50% profit margin. I know that there are some areas that I can cut the fat, I just need to be more intentional i.e. buy less coffee 😬

5. Sabbath/Take a Day Off Weekly

   During my slower months (Jan, Feb, June, and July) I’m pretty good at this, but during the busy months this habit basically goes out the window. This past fall (Sept. 1 - Nov. 30) I had six days off. 6 DAYS! That’s not only terrible for my mental, emotional, and spiritual health, but also for my marriage. Cole is a rock and our marriage is great, but we hardly spent any quality time together. 2023 will be the year that I sabbath and have better work boundaries.

If you have any goals for this new year, comment them below, and THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for being here! I officially started business 6 years ago and none of it would be possible without your support.
