Gratitude & Goal Setting

Have you heard of the book Girl, Wash Your Face by Rachel Hollis?

I haven't read the book, but I've been listening to the Rachel Hollis podcast lately, and although I have my issues with Rachel (more on that later, her brand is kind of anti-intellectual and it drives me crazy), she does share some really valuable tips and tricks for improving your life and your business.

One of the practices Rachel talks a lot about is her journaling, which she does every morning. She says it's one of the things that helps her align her goals with her daily actions. She records 3 things she's grateful for, 10 big goals she has, and 1 thing she's going to do that day to get closer to one of her goals.

Rachel Hollis actually sells these journals through her company. I thought about buying one, but then I realized that I could make my own journaling pages for FREE (and, I knew I could design a cuter version than the one she has.

This is what my page looks like:




One thing I like about Rachel's practice is that she encourages you to write your goals in past tense, as if you've already achieved them. So instead of writing, "I want to save $60,000 for a downpayment on a house," you write, "I saved $60,000 for a downpayment on a house." Sometimes I write the same ten goals every day, and sometimes I just write whatever goals are on my mind. It's been a great way to put myself in a positive mindset every morning. I really love it!

Thanks for reading!
