2024 is upon us and you’re likely thinking about your New Year Resolutions and business plans. I wanted to take a slightly different approach this year and share 24 for ’24 New Year resolutions that are both unique AND empowering to give you some inspiration. We want to set goals that are going to grow and stretch you, without being so far off that they’re unrealistic within the set timeline. So, let’s get to these goals.
2024 New Year resolutions and goal planning for the female entrepreneur
As a female entrepreneur, goal setting whether it’s for the year, for the quarter… or both is necessary to stay on track for the year. Goal setting gives you a vision and direction of where you want to take your business and your life in the upcoming months and year. And as much as New Year resolutions may seem cliche, there is a reason that so man entrepreneurs and leaders take the time to set their intentions and goals for a New Year.
Why Set Goals and create a 24 for '24 new year resolutions list?
How often do you accidentally achieve a goal or reach a goal that you didn’t know you were pursuing? I’d be surprised if the answer was frequently.
Most people need goals and a vision to hold onto in order for them to be successful. Without goals and New Year resolutions, it would be so easy to get side tracked and miss out on a goal because you have no idea where you’re going.
A really good analogy for goal setting in business is considering going on a trip without a map or a destination. If you are traveling from Florida and you want to go to New York, you need to know up front that you are traveling TO New York. Otherwise, you might start taking a direction West instead of North.
It’s the same in goal setting. You need to KNOW where you’re going in order to take the correct actions.
what '24 new year resolutions should you set?
When it comes to goal setting and New Year resolutions for 2024, there are up to 7 different categories to use. Before we get into them, I want to remind you that as a female entrepreneur there is so much more to your success than your business.
