In the world of business, setting goals has been a game-changer for me. I’m a business owner, a busy mum of 3 children, one with special needs. So I know firsthand the unique challenges we face. That’s why I want to share my journey and some tips on how to set achievable business goals that are tailored to your unique circumstances.

Start with Your Vision and Values

First things first, take a moment to think about where you see your business in the long run and what truly matters to you. Your goals should be in sync with your vision and values because that’s what makes them meaningful.

It’s about ensuring that our goals align with our vision,  embrace our unique strengths and perspectives when we set our goals. Consider how your business goals can fit into your family life and help you maintain a healthy work-life balance. For example I have 3 children and they all have very different needs and I work in order to be able to provide for them but also I love working for myself. 

My clients come from all walks of life and industries and being able to help a wide range of clients is something I love as I can bring my 20+ years of experience and best practice across the industries to my clients.

The Power of 90-Day Cycles

I’ve found that planning in 90-day cycles has been a game-changer for me as a business owner. It breaks down those big, intimidating goals into manageable chunks. Plus, it gives you the flexibility to adjust your plan if needed. Also please remember these are your goals if life happens and you can change them – you can! You are in charge. I have seen many clients worry about changing their strategy or goals because that is what they agreed with their coach and didn’t want to seem like they failed etc. It really does not matter – for my clients of course I will work with you to keep you on track but if your heart’s not in it or something changes you need to adjust your plan. 

SMART Goals – Keep it Simple

Setting SMART goals is a no-brainer. Make sure your goals are:

• Specific: Clearly state what you want to achieve.
• Measurable: Use KPIs to track your progress.
• Achievable: Be ambitious but realistic, considering your resources.
• Relevant: Ensure your goals align with your vision and values. 
• Time-bound: Set deadlines to keep yourself accountable, but again make them realistic – if you know you have family time/ holidays booked don’t set your deadline then.

Break it Down, Bit by Bit

Now, let’s talk about breaking down your goals into smaller tasks. Trust me; it’s a game-changer! This approach makes it easier to track your progress and stay motivated, especially when life gets busy.

Lean on Your Support System

Never be afraid to ask for help or support. Connect with people who get your unique challenges and can offer guidance and encouragement. Joining networking groups or finding a mentor in your industry can be a game-changer.

Remember, You’re in Charge

The best part of being a business owner? You’re in control! If your plan needs tweaking or a complete overhaul, that’s okay! You have the power to adapt and change your strategy as needed.
