Real Talk: I have no idea what my goals for 2023 are this year. I have not come up with any New Year’s Resolutions. Can you complete 23 Challenges for 2023?
I know they aren’t for everyone but I love setting goals each year and resetting my life with new challenges. The problem is, I had some health challenges in November and I spent December scrambling to catch up on my life and get ready for all things holidays. Then the Sunday before Christmas, my husband blew out his knee and sent us back to square one.
I feel so far in the weeds, that I can’t even think of goals because I still have a million and one tasks that I’m behind on doing. BUT I bought a new planner. I love paper planners and calendars to get my life organized and I just bought the Commit30 Planner and it comes with access to their group. I’ve been looking in it for inspiration and so I thought I’d share the inspiration with you by coming up with a list of 23 challenges that you can do this year! Some of these are pretty simple – some require more planning.
