 Defining YourWHYand GOAL SETTING worksheet

Being crystal clear about your ‘why’ for starting (and succeeding with!) your VA business
will help you to create your goals from a place of motivation and focus.

Think of your ‘why’ as the foundation for your business and the reason for doing what
you do! Not only will being clear on your ‘why’ help you create meaningful goals, but it
will encourage and motivate you during the challenging times (they will come!).

Spend the next ~30 minutes thinking about your ‘why.’ Perhaps it’s your family, the
time-freedom you crave, the lifestyle you want to live...

Your ‘why’ is personal, so really take some time to give this exercise some thought – it
will not only be the foundation of your efforts, but the reason you press forward on those
challenging days ahead.

My Why for my Business and Success:

___________________________________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________________________________

Bonus Action Step #1:

Write out your ‘why’ on a separate piece of paper or note card and put it somewhere
you’ll see it all of the time!

GOAL SETTING 101

Now that you’ve spent some time getting clear on your ‘why,’ it’s time to create goals
for yourself and your business.

Remember to create goals that are S.M.A.R.T. – specific, measurable, achievable, re-
sults-oriented and time-sensitive. These goals are how you’ll measure your progress and
keep yourself on track!

Write down 3 goals for your business:

1. ________________________________________________________________________________________
2. ________________________________________________________________________________________
3. ________________________________________________________________________________________

Bonus Action Step #2:

Break down each of your goals into time increments of 90 days, 6 months, 1 year and 2
years. What do you want to have accomplished with each goal at those points in time?

6 months: ____________________________________________________________________________
