One of my goals this year is to read the bible for one hour daily, and to write scriptures in prayer form. I'm doing this because with everything that's going on, God doesn't respond to our emotions, He responds only to His Word, so I have to begin doing this for me.
is it normal for us to now feel overwhelmed as we are watching these trying to figure out what we need and how to get organized.. I am now feeling totally overwhelmed with the process when I was sure before...
I would encourage you to stay on your path of what you were sure about 😇 she creates these videos for us to have a sense of what organizing looks like. You don’t have to adopt every tip as your own. I like to use her tips along with what systems I already have in place and it really works out.
It would, especially if you have less goals you want to work on. WHICH IS TOTALLY OKAY! You only have so much you can do in an hour, day, year and lifetime. This is just to help you focus in on what’s important to YOU. She has worked super hard to get where she is and you can be there too! Just start!
These days everybody is trying to be the teacher when in fact they're not even experts in their fields. If you want proper planning, learn from Tony Robbins.
I read many books about personal development, i have seen si many vidéos about organising time and life, but i never seen à coach explaining how to organize and prioritize in life like you do it , you are just amazing 🤩🤩 The way how you explain thé organisation with détails is just woooow !
Imagine being so organized you divided your life into 12 categories 😭 I aspire to be like you Elena. You've inspired me so much in 2021 and I've changed/developed so many good habits thanks to your videos. Thank you and God bless ❤️
I’m so glad I decided to watch this a second time because I missed the rubber ball-glass ball metaphor. Such a good explanation & a huge relief! Thank you!
This was great. Helped me choose my 4 top categories for my goals and taught me to keep my financial goals separate. Especially since they will get broken down into their own categories. Thanks
I'm an anxious perfectionist and it's hard for me to set a goal for the entire year. Is it too specific? Is it too broad? If I don't get it just right or quit will I be a failure? I'm really thinking about setting up my 2022 planner in 4 month sections and implementing many of the ideas you've shared in this series. I'm hoping that time frame will feel more manageable for me ... so I can organize my life and achieve my dreams! Love that part!
I am really enjoying this series and learning quite a bit. I watch a few other TH-cam videos on the same topic. This causes TH-cam to kindly suggest more of the same. Lately, TH-cam is suggesting videos on goals vs. systems. Do you have any input on this? Some time over the new year I would like to hear your take on whether there is a difference and whether the systems are better than goals.
I love your series and your planner system! I did want to make you aware, in case no one else has, that the juggling balls came from a James Patterson book from 2002. I’m looking forward to seeing more of your videos! I spent years using the Eisenhower Matrix on a daily basis to map out what was critical.
Took a full page of notes. I have been confusing life categories with goals. Do you have a video on the difference between life categories and goals? The balls analogy was great!
I noticed that all your goals are process goals, which is intriguing. Can you talk about why you set up your goals that way? It seems like it would be so much easier to ensure success because the steps are basically in the goal. Thank you so much for this series.
Rewatching the video as i finally think i have my goals figured out. Im curious where you would put your business goals? I have 3 different businnes i will build next year and wondering where i should add them
How many hours a day are you writing in your planners? Seems like an awful lot of page designing and writing. I don't have the patience for that, for sure.
Hey... what would be a great planner pages for health planner if a person wanted to eat plant based and have recipes they would use and plant out what to eat.....like daily menus?
ok..im sorry for all my questions...I have given up on digital planning...so im going for the old fashioned paper and pen... I need to know what I need to order that it looks just like your planner the big one I already have the TUL planner and a BIG dashboard part so just tell me what I need to order so It will look just like yours I know I need it all and will use it....thanks!
While these are lovely reminders of what is important to you, they are not truly goals. Goals require ambition and effort beyond what you are currently doing. If you are already doing those things (and you admit doing the same goals every year), there isn’t much effort to accomplish them. The purpose of setting goals is to push you outside your comfort zone a bit to accomplish new and different things. This is a great way to remind yourself of what is important to you and to keep focused on that - but it is just a reminder, not a true goal.
I don't think there is one correct way to write the goals that are important to you. I find Alaina 's method the first that actually made sense and doable, which leads to the more expensive goals. I don't believe there is one way to write goals as there is no one way to plan
@@blanchesplace-vintageinspi505I understand what you are staying - and maybe if this video had been titled “Goal exploration” or “Goal preparation” I wouldn’t have felt the need to speak up. But the video is entitled “Creating goals”, so I wanted to point out that these are not goals. Written well, goals are SMART (specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and time bound). And the definition of a goal is something that pushes you to reach for something you don’t have/aren’t doing. Alaina wrote lovely reminders to do what is important to her and nothing is wrong” with that at all. But this is not a video about how to write goals.
@@loriallred4727 As a business teacher I concur…you are politically correct. I DO however think that for the purposes of her business and her target audience this video and it’s title will suffice for what she wishes to accomplish.
@@JessicaSmith-ie7cm I am technical in my definition of a goal, not sure how that’s “politically correct.” You may be right about the title being sufficient for her “target audience,” but i thought by watching her videos, I would be considered part of her target audience. To me it was almost clickbait - which i am sure was NOT Alaina’s intention. But I was anticipating her teaching how to integrate her life categories and habits into measurable annual goals. That was not this video. I was just suggesting a more appropriate title - that’s all. I really enjoy her videos!

The glass balls and rubber balls example was so enlightening! Thank you so much for providing the clarity!
This was perfect I now have my first three sheets filled out in my planner!!!
Awesome!
Love the idea of putting the goals sheet first and there only being four!
I’m so glad I decided to watch this a second time because I missed the rubber ball-glass ball metaphor. Such a good explanation & a huge relief! Thank you!
I really like the concept of glass balls. Excellent way of looking at priorities!

I absolutely LOVED this! Such an amazing idea and planner 💜💜

I prefer to plan quarterly - 3 month periods. That may work for you!
Yep. I have the same issue. Recently discovered planning quarterly, or by season even, is a better fit for how my brain works. And less anxiety. 😊
