January 2025


About this meeting

We kicked off the new year with an incredible turnout for our first-ever goal-setting workshop. The room was filled with energy as members reflected on the year ahead and began shaping meaningful, actionable goals for 2025.

Agnes led an engaging and interactive workshop focused on helping members define goals that are both inspiring and achievable. She introduced several frameworks and guided everyone through hands-on exercises to build clarity and direction for the year.

Key Takeaways from Agnes’s talk:

  • Use multiple frameworks to gain clarity: Agnes introduced SMART goals, Ikigai, LifeBook categories, Start With Why, and principles from Atomic Habits to help members explore goals from different angles.
  • Anchor your goals in purpose: Understanding your deeper “why” makes goals more resilient and helps sustain motivation throughout the year.
  • Break goals down into small, repeatable actions: Drawing from Atomic Habits, Agnes emphasized the power of tiny steps and identity-based habits over big, inconsistent bursts of effort.
  • Design goals across the full spectrum of your life: Using LifeBook categories encouraged members to think beyond career—expanding into health, relationships, personal development, creativity, finances, and more.
  • Make goals specific and measurable: SMART goal criteria helped transform vague intentions into clear commitments with defined success markers.
  • Focus on what you can start doing now: Agnes guided attendees to identify immediate, practical actions they could take to begin building momentum right away.

The workshop set a strong foundation for 2025, giving everyone clarity, structure, and the confidence to pursue their goals with intention. A perfect way to start the year. 🚀
