Having goals and believing that you can live by them, can sometimes give you a sense of freedom and accomplishment. Knowing that you have done what you have set out to do.

For example, if you have done at least 3 things you planned from your monthly budget that’s an accomplishment, you did it for yourself.

The small things you plan to do for yourself, taking yourself out, travel and do things that serve you

According to Better Up, One strategy for successfully setting self-improvement goals is to reframe them as personal growth. Both your personal and professional lives can benefit from embracing it.

ln addition, personal goals are about your values, growth and developing yourself according to rules set by you.
