How to Set Your Goals

Growing Healthier, Wealthier

Hello, dear reader! Welcome to Hop of Hope, a space where I document my real-time adventure of self-improvement, focusing on enhancing my health and financial well-being. It’s been a bumpy ride, but the challenges I face are the very foundation of my mission: to gradually enhance my quality of life and inspire you to do the same. Together, we can motivate each other to live our best lives. Let’s become better versions of ourselves, day by day, hop by hop.

What is "Hop of Hope"?

For too long, I've dreamed of becoming a better version of myself, but life, as it often does, threw its curveballs. Battling severe headaches caused by neck tension and feeling the financial pinch after my last dollar went to taxes, I realized it was time for a change. Starting this blog feels like a promise I can't break, and it keeps my motivation soaring. If my journey also motivates even one of you, then it’s a win-win situation.

Progress Updates

I'll be sharing updates regularly, capturing the strides I've made toward my goals, the obstacles I've encountered, and the lessons learned along the way. This isn’t about having all the answers or pretending everything’s perfect. It’s about my real, messy, step-by-step journey to get a little healthier and a bit more financially secure. These updates will come as significant changes occur, when I find valuable insights to share, or even when I just want to chat. They might be about the process of change itself, the emotional journey of self-improvement, or practical tips I’ve found useful.

A Community of Support and Sharing

I want Hop of Hope to be a platform for all of us to share, learn, and grow together. Your stories, your struggles, and your successes are incredibly valuable. I warmly invite you to share your experiences, offer advice, and connect with me and others here. Together, we can create a supportive community that inspires and uplifts.

Our Plan of Action

We're starting with a three-month challenge, aiming for the 10th of June (as our initial checkpoint).

Who says new beginnings have to wait for the start of a year, month, or a week? I strongly believe that the best time to start is the moment inspiration strikes, while the motivation is fresh.

Setting Our Goals

The first step will be to identify the areas of our lives we're eager to improve. I’ve drawn up this handy life balance wheel to help us see things more clearly:
