Imagine standing on the edge of a serene lake, pebbles in hand. With each stone you toss, ripples form, spreading across the tranquil surface. Just like these ripples, every goal you set in motion impacts your life, creating waves of change. This blog is your guide to setting sail on a journey of purpose and achievement.

Discovering Your ‘Why’

Before you dive into the mechanics of goal-setting, it’s crucial to anchor your aspirations in a solid foundation: your ‘why statement.’ This is not just a sentence; it’s the heartbeat of your ambitions, the driving force that propels you forward even when the going gets tough. But how do you distill the essence of your dreams into a few words?

Start by reflecting on what truly moves you. Is it the desire to create, to help others, or perhaps to achieve personal growth? PlanPlus Online acts as your personal guide, helping you craft a compelling ‘why statement’ through introspective questioning. Here is a step-by-step guide to get started…

1. Start by navigating to the planning tab after logging in to PlanPlus Online.
2. Create a “My Why Statement” by selecting the arrow in the right hand corner of the “My Why Statements” block.
3. You can create a why statement for yourself, your family, or your team. Check out some of examples below.
   1. My Why is to lead a life of purpose and impact, where every action and decision aligns with my core values of integrity, compassion, and lifelong learning. I strive to inspire others, contribute positively to my community, and pursue personal growth and excellence in all areas of my life.
   2. Our Family’s Why is to create a nurturing and supportive environment where each member is valued and encouraged to achieve their full potential. We are committed to fostering love, understanding, and respect in all our relationships, promoting a legacy of unity and positive values for generations to come.
   3. Our Team’s Why is to innovate and excel in our field, driving success through collaboration, creativity, and a steadfast commitment to our shared goals. We aim to build a culture of trust, accountability, and continuous improvement, where every team member feels empowered to contribute and grow.
4. Depending on your selection, PlanPlus will guide you through a series of questions to identify your core values.
5. Once you have answered all of the questions, it will summarize your answers into actionable insights you can then apply to the goals section of the planning tab.

The Power of Vision Boards

A vision board is more than just a collection of images and quotes; it’s a visual representation of your goals and dreams. It serves as a constant reminder of where you want to go and what you want to achieve. But in our digital age, a physical board may not be the most efficient way to keep your vision front and center. Enter PlanPlus Online, where you can create a digital vision board that integrates seamlessly with your goals, tasks, and schedule.

Imagine having a personalized dashboard that not only displays your ‘why statement’ but also aligns your daily tasks and long-term goals with your core values and aspirations. This is what PlanPlus Online offers—a comprehensive tool that allows you to visualize your success and track your progress.
