What are Daily Goals?

Our daily goals are targets that we'd like to achieve by the end of each day.

A goal is anything we direct our efforts toward achieving. Daily goals can be as ambitious as you want.

They’re probably part of your larger, long-term goals, or they could be something you want to accomplish each day, like forming good habits.


Why is setting daily goals important?

Some of our goals will take a long time to accomplish, and that's perfectly fine.

They force us to look at our situation today, not tomorrow or next week, but today.

When we set daily goals, we're productive each day.

We're constantly creating action plans, and they teach us the importance of planning. Our daily goals also help us feel productive to stay motivated.
