Tips On How To Set Goals As a Couple

#couplegoals not talking about couple goals but about goal-setting couples, see what I did there!?

 

 

My hubby and I setting goals together is one of my most favorite ingredients of our relationship secret.

 

 

What once started as only setting travel-related goals together (a decade ago) has now evolved into us both thoroughly auditing the previous year(s) and coming up with not just better goals year after year but also a better vision (and mission) across all aspects of our lives.

 

 

 

 

 

Setting and achieving goals as a couple has certainly brought us closer and closer allowing us to go through different seasons of life and grow and evolve together.

 

It’s made way for us to deeply understand what truly matters to the other as well as oneself – sharing our hopes and wishes, talking through our fears and struggles,  laughing at our silliest imaginations, and daring to dream our wildest dreams!

 

Challenge, encourage, inspire, and support each other.

Call each other out on our limiting beliefs aka bullshit. 

Push each other outside our comfort zones.

Appreciate the differences and use those to our advantage.

Show up for each other and support one other.

Share each other’s mistakes and insights.

Learn from each other, teach/mentor/coach one another.

Don’t drain energy but enliven and recharge each other.

Sync up and review progress as needed – daily/weekly/quarterly/yearly.

Reflect and celebrate successes and failures together.

 

 

 

We are each other’s safe space and dumping ground, and there isn’t any judgment.

 

When one of us slips the other is always there to keep a check, a prompt reminder – an in-house accountability partner.

 

We dream together and intentionally design and co-create our present and future, and have built/building a life that we both love.

 

 

 

 

 

Your turn, do you and your partner set goals together?

 

If yes, then would love to know what you do and how it has helped your relationship?

 

If not, then this year is as good as any to start. Nothing is more rewarding than crushing those goals, together!
