Your family is important to you, which is why you should consider it an entire goal category. It may feel weird that you will take the time to set goals around your family, but sometimes we need to be intentional about some of the actions we do each day and that is true not just of work and our finances, but also for our family as well. You can choose how important these goals are, but it is still important to set them up.

 

Think about how much better your life would be if you were able to spend more time with the kids. Whether you start with time reading before bed with the kids or looking into game night or family meals around the table, there are so many things that you are able to do here that allows you to create a deeper bond with your kids than before.

 

The good news is that there are a lot of different options that you choose when it comes to setting goals that come with your family goals. Some of these goals include:

 

# Keep the relationship that you have with your parents strong. You can make it a goal to call them once a week to catch up, rather than letting time get away from you so that you go months without talking to them.

# Find a class that you can take with your spouse. This allows you to spend some time together while also working on some of your intellectual goals at the same time.

# Be involved in the lives of your siblings. You can set up a coffee date with them once a month ordo something else with them as often as possible. If they live too far away to get together, then set up a video chat or phone call to catch up.

# Make it a goal to sit at the table a few times a week. Do not have any phones when you do this so that everyone is able to sit together, talk, and connect over a good meal. You can even cook the meal together.
