I have been talking about goals and the importance of goal setting for approximately a billion fucking years… Let’s talk about: the fact that 80% of peeps don’t set goals (WTF?!) 16% think of their goals but don’t write them down 3% of people think of goals AND write them down only 1 fucking percent of people think of their goals, write them down and revisit them more than once Guess which group were the higher achievers? Hot tip: the 1% Don’t forget you can use tools to help create and set goals! If you haven’t already, make sure you check out the Goals Planners! I made them to serve myself as I transitioned into motherhood. I knew I needed to set some goals to get through that year, but there was nothing on the market back then. I love rainbows, and colour and glorious joy… So I CREATED it. Now they’ve been used over 400’000 people WORLD. WIDE. Fucking mind boggling. So if you’re a Goal Getter already, I wanna hear about the biggest blessings and miracles because of the workbooks! It’s never too late to get started on the workbooks, or your goals!

How to write a best selling book!!!! Yes! It’s totally possible! Buckle in! Write your book – this can be done super fast!

It’s time for people to hear your story! In this episode I mention: 40 Days to Finish Your Book
