My Personal Goals For 2023

As teenagers, we tend to dream big and set personal goals which, for the most part, motives and gives us something to strive for. Top performers, celebrities and athletes all set goals. Nsikayesizwe David Junior Ngcobo, professional known as Nasty C (South African rapper whose goal is to become a billionaire at the age of thirty), and Pieter Coetze (South African swimmer who set himself the goal of joining the Tokyo Olympic Games at the age of sixteen) are some of the big names who set personal goals for themselves.

That’s because when you set goals, you have a vision to work towards.

I have set myself personal goals which I would like to achieve before the end of 2023. Some of these goals are educational, while others are finance related.

Once you have completed your degree, your mind is often overwhelmed with the question “where to next?” and with today’s competitive job market, it can be incredibly difficult for some to secure employment with just a degree. That’s why furthering one’s studies is a sensible choice for many.

One of the personal goals I have set for myself is to obtain a postgraduate qualification so as to put myself in a far better position to secure employment.

Even though the amount of love we have for money may vary in sizes, it is nevertheless a doted-on item. Some are fond of money because of the things it allows them to do, others like to save every cent as a way to feel more secure.

Another one of my personal goals is to be more prudent with money so that I can live a stress-free life knowing that I will not struggle when things take an unexpected turn.

Of course, it goes without saying that we all want to be happy in life. Otherwise, how are you going to achieve your goals while in a bad mood?

Engaging in activities that are as simple as meeting up with friends to watch sports can improve your wellbeing and can lead to a stress-free life.

Hopefully, the idea of setting personal goals will help you realise that one who sets goals tends to know where they are going and why they are going there. And although you may have countless goals, there’s always a few to prioritise.
