Wait I love this so much, and hell yeah to moving your body 300 days this year!!! Do you have a link to the Canva art you created? I might copy you in 2026 👀
Okay yes yes yes to all of this I LOVE a New Years Resolution! Every year I make a new years bingo board made of manageable goals that are still a challenge. My partner and our friends do it together as an accountability group. Once you get a row of accomplished goals, you get a prize. If you get blackout, you get a big prize (I have never gotten blackout lol, but I always almost get it! It makes me excited for the year that I finally accomplish blackout).
With us, the most important thing is that the goals have multiple chances to be achieved. My husband tried to put “PR in the marathon”, but we pointed out that he only does one marathon a year. If he got sick, or had an injury, or for whatever reason didn’t PR, there would be no second opportunity and his chances for bingo and blackout would be gone with months still left in the year.
I really love that you emphasize having multiple opportunities to achieve a goal - that's something I've never really considered but it makes perfect sense! I bet that reduces a lot of pressure.
I adore the bingo card idea but had a tough time doing it myself (I made one this year for the first time in addition to my central resolution). How do you go about tackling the things on your bingo card? I wonder if I would have had an easier/more successful time if I'd been more strategic about it, but I just ended up overwhelmed lmao
