About this template

Goals set in January are usually forgotten by March, because nothing in an ordinary week points at them.

Each goal is a section with its reason, milestones on dates and the first small step due this week. A monthly check-in keeps them in view.

Tips from the template

  • Pick no more than three goals.
  • Write the reason in the first task: you will need it in month four.
  • At the monthly check-in, keep the goal and change the plan if it is not working.
