VLOG | Freelance Life & 12-Week Year: A Month of Challenges & Small Wins
Title: VLOG | Freelance Life & 12-Week Year: A Month of Challenges & Small Wins
#GoalSetting #productivity #vlog #12weekyear
Sub Count: 101
September was all about starting the 12-Week Year, dealing with unexpected knee pain, and managing freelance work while navigating fitness setbacks. I’m sharing how I’ve adjusted my goals, kept up with client projects, and found a balance (or something kind of like it) as I move into the next month.

    I have been thinking a lot about the 12 week year lately, which is why I clicked on your video. I have a goal to make $5000 worth of products to sell. One thing I've learned from another youtuber is to make your goals entirely within your control. I can't control how much people buy, but I can do research on my target market and offer the type of products they like to buy. I'm entering several local craft fairs before Christmas so I'm making things that would be good for gifts and whatnot. I have only that one goal for the next 12 weeks, that's making things that will profit me $60/day on average.

      Yasss, I'm so glad! I feel like maybe I'll get better the more I do it. My first two weeks have been... a struggle, but as I see progress, I'm more motivated. Hopefully, the same for you too. Also - no shame in making gentle goals (is that a thing?) so they're easier to achieve

    Wishing you all the best. If you wouldn't mind some unsolicited feedback, I think leveling up your audio will really increase the number of subscribers. I find what you're saying very interesting, but it is really hard on the ears. Kind of scratchy and with a metallic echo.

    The idea of a personal contract as a way to bridge the gap between reality and our goals really resonated with me. It's made me think about how I approach productivity and personal growth. Has anyone else been inspired to create their own personal contract, or do you have other strategies that work for you?
