Goal Check-in :: Quarter 2 of 2021
Anna Osgoodby Life & Biz | Goal Check-in :: Quarter 2 of 2021

My quarter 2 goal check-in is here! 🎉🎉🎉

I have to say... what I sought out to do vs what I actually accomplished ended up being TOTALLY different. That's the beauty of goals and life though... you can change them and sometimes things not going to plan is the best gift. One of the biggest shifts being my business.

At the beginning of the year, I had mapped out working on a lot of internal projects and a few different offerings for this quarter but those quickly got pushed back because my business exploded 💥 In the best kind of way. I chat more about that in this post if you’re interested too. So things definitely shifted a lot but it also ended up being one of the biggest months of growth not only for Going Bold, but for my entire 6+ years as an entrepreneur. 😱 Yes really. It was a big quarter for me both professionally and personally! Here’s a peek at some of the highlights.

Going Bold Studio had a business explosion

Like I mentioned, things blew up over at Going Bold Studio! Huge thank you to everyone who has supported my biz in one way or another — it seriously means SO much! This quarter, I got to work with 17 of my dream clients this quarter, booked my services out 2 months in advance, and surpassed my quarterly income target by 28%

Won an Award for being a top Squarespace Web Design

Being named a top Squarespace designer was such a HUGE honor! All of the happy tears! I chat more about that over here too.

Hit 50 rides on the Peloton

Working on my fitness goals has been a priority this year and I’ve been putting in the work! So thankful for all of my friends who have them too who have been such great accountability partners as well!

Got Going Bold Studio up and running

I can’t even name how many things have gone into making this happen. Holy hell, it’s been a lot. Launching my new website, creating new proposal/social media reports/client templates, overhauling my onboarding and a whole lot of other things!

Made some moves on wedding planning

We set our wedding date, booked out venue and hired our photographer! So things are definitely moving on the wedding planning side of things!

Joined the century club on Peloton

I hit 100 rides on my Peloton and truthfully am so dang proud of myself for sticking with my workouts. Working out is not my favorite and to keep up with it during such an insanely busy quarter… proud of myself! 💪 I have a long ways to go on those goals but I’ve been keeping it consistent!

Made some money moves

This quarter, I hit my savings goal I made for the entire year — a whopping 6 months early and I also increased my investments!

Finished a business course

I’ve been dreaming up a new offering at my business for a while and signed up for a course and this quarter I finished it! Some very exciting things coming later this year or early 2022!

My theme of my yearly goals is to make bold moves that will set me up for the long term and I definitely didn’t waste any time getting down to business. It was a quarter of making a lot decisions and a lot of growth!

This quarter was a big one! One that had a lot of unexpected shifts and growth and I’m going into Q3 really dang proud of all of the progress I’ve made. It just goes to show how much can change in a month… in 3 months… and 6 months. Keep at it friends!


Why do I do goal check-ins?

I started doing goal check-ins publically as a personal accountability challenge. Working on my goals and strategies to accomplish them have always been really important and by sharing them I felt an extra weight of commitment. Plus, I wanted a way to try and encourage others to have their own check-ins and keep working on their own goals. Helping others reach their dreams has always felt like my purpose and by being vulnerable and sharing the journey of my own I hope to inspire others as well.

Goal Check-in :: Quarter 1 of 2021

My goal check-ins are backkkk! You may have noticed I took a break from sharing them publicly (after 2+ years😱) but real talk, I’ve had to step back from my personal account and blog while I’ve been focused on getting the new biz up and running.

That being said, you know how much I love chatting about goals and doing these check-ins so I wanted to do a quarterly recap. Because while I may have been quiet on the topic, I’ve been making some MOVES behind the scenes. Here are a few of the highlights from this quarter:

Refinanced our house

I’ve definitely been making some moneyyy moves this year and I kicked it off with refinancing the house to take advantage of some long-term savings.

Bought a new car

Another big move was buying a new car. We decided we could really use a SUV for our lifestyle and adventures so I traded my Honda in.

Grew the new biz Insta account to over 500 followers

More important than the numbers though, I’ve made some of the most amazing connections with other biz owners on the new account!

Made my first freelance hire

I definitely needed to call in some help this quarter and luckily this was one of my easiest decisions. It was also a big one because I’d never done it before!

My theme of my yearly goals is to make bold moves that will set me up for the long term and I definitely didn’t waste any time getting down to business. It was a quarter of making a lot decisions and a lot of growth!

I hope you’ve enjoyed the return of my check-ins and that it inspires you to do one for yourself. Progress is progress and you deserve to celebrate your wins both big and small! 🙌🎉

Monthly Goal Check-in :: Wins, Milestones and Progress from October

October was definitely a wildddd ride over here. I’ve found myself smack dab in the middle of a season of change and while I’ve been trying to keep up with everything I’ve debated if I wanted to pause my updates for a bit. Let’s be real, I’ve thought about that quite a few times this year because… 2020!

I keep on showing up though because each month I remember that life is NEVER linear. Whether we’re living through the shitstorm that is this year or it’s another, we are ALWAYS going through ups and downs. That’s life for you! And if you wait to do things until life has calmed down… or only acknowledge your progress during the good times then you’re going to miss out on a hell of a lot.

Every month we have a new opportunity for growth and I love doing my check-ins because they remind me of just how much can happen in a month and help me realign for the next. Even more important, especially during this chapter, they remind me of just how strong and truly capable I am to accomplish big things even when life is a little cray cray!

So let’s get down to my highlights (both big and small) this month!

  1. I hit 80% of my yearly website traffic goal for my blog and had my top month of the year! That, even despite coming in short on my goal for new posts this month.

  2. Signed project contracts worth 20% of our annual business this year in one week’s time 😳 You could say it’s been a busy month for new business

  3. Invested in a course to learn a new skill I’ve been wanting to learn for awhile

  4. Started (and actually stuck) to a new skincare routine. Yes, quite the contrast to the others but… self-care

  5. Set limits on social media during my off hours and have cut back on my daily usage which was so necessary this month

I hope this update will encourage you to take a few minutes to reflect on your month as well! As always, if you want a little help through the process too, I have free downloads at the Get Your Goals section of my blog too! 🙌
