#16 Aligning Your Goals with Your Incredible Potential
Have you ever set goals, only to feel like you keep falling short? Do you sometimes wonder if it’s even worth trying, or if success is possible for you?
In today’s episode, I’m diving into the idea that goals are so much more than reaching a destination. They’re about the person you become in the process—and the powerful habits that shape your life in ways you may not even expect. As homeschool moms, we know that it’s not just the “schoolwork” we’re teaching our kids—it’s about character, growth, and learning to rely on the Savior’s strength.
Here’s what you’ll find in today’s episode:
- Understanding the 50/50 Principle: We all have a natural desire for comfort and security, but our spirits yearn to grow and become more like Christ. I’ll explain how understanding this tension can help us shift our mindset and make real progress in achieving our goals—without the guilt or frustration.
- The Power of Honest Self-Reflection: The new year is right around the corner—let’s talk about why being 100% honest with yourself is the key to success in 2025. As you plan your goals (both personal and for your homeschool).
- The Role of Compassion in Goal-Setting: We’re usually harder on ourselves than anyone else would be. I’ll share why compassion is a crucial part of goal-setting and how embracing this principle can help you become the person the Lord knows you can be.
If you’ve ever felt like your goals are out of reach or like you’re just spinning your wheels, this episode will give you a new perspective and the encouragement you need to keep moving forward, one step at a time.
