2019 in Review & Goal Burning

We had a fantastic meeting this morning, where most of the Cobblers graded themselves well on achieving their goals for 2019. Many of the goals were bold ones, so this is exceptionally wonderful.

Some of us learned that the goal we set was more significant than we imagined; there were some hidden pot-holes in our knowledge that we didn't discover until we got in deep. But we still pushed forward and amended our goals and kept driving.

Once we reviewed the year, we took our goals that needed to be left behind and set them on fire! For some of us, it was a goal that didn't fit, and some wanted to release last year's goal to make room for this year's. The whole process is incredibly cathartic! (And fire is fun. Some of us may have just burned some paper just because.)

Next week we'll be setting our goals for 2020. Rebecca Reimers Cristol created a worksheet for us to kick-start the process. You can find it here!

Whether you've been to a goals meeting or not, the next seven days are a great time to reflect on 2019 and set your intentions for 2020. Having a group to keep you accountable will help you push yourself to make your business hopes and dreams a reality.

If you can't make the next meeting, but would like to be in the accountability circle, email us at cobblerscollective@gmail.com and we'll add you to the roster.

And don't worry if it's a personal goal or one you're not comfortable sharing, give it a code word that only you know, and we'll follow up about how "watermelon" is doing.
