Did you know…. 

A study by psychology professor Dr. Gail Matthews found that people who wrote down their goals* showed an increase in goal achievements, compared with those who did not.

“The positive effect of written goals was supported: Those who wrote their goals accomplished significantly more than those who did not write their goals.”

* goals used for this study noted here.

Thoughts

Writing down a vision of your goals and your best version of self, could bring aspirations into focus.

  • What do you value most and want in life?

  • What are your goals? What steps could you take to help achieve them?

  • What would your future self thank you for, starting today?
