How to Make 2024 Your Best Year Yet

If you prepare yourself to succeed, you can make 2024 your best year yet. I want to help you make 2024 your best year mentally and spiritually. Why is it essential to prepare for your best year?

When you start any journey, you need a destination. Without a destination, getting off the path or being easily distracted is very easy. Without a destination, there is no end to the journey.

We will talk about setting goals, submitting your goals to God in prayer, and refining and implementing the plan. If you have a dream or goal that could dramatically change your life. I would advise you to read the rest of this post.  

Setting Goals for 2024: Your Best Year Yet

Your best year starts with clear goals. When you think about goals, you must cover all the bases. How would you rate your life on a scale of 1-10 in the following categories: Financial, physical, spiritual, relationships, business/career, or recreation? 

If you could plan your life, what would it look like? Once you have the categories, think about ways to improve the areas where you lack satisfaction. Next, you want to make smart goals. S.M.A.R.T. goals are Specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound.

Create goals you can easily measure and obtain. You can make yearly, monthly, weekly, and daily goals to track your progress. If you need motivation at the end of the week, evaluate yourself and see what you can do better for next week. 

Some key things to understand when creating these goals. The Bible says in Matthew 6:33, “But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.” This means that when you seek God and his kingdom first, God will add other things to you.

Other things can be your wants or your needs. The second thing we must know is this Bible verse about the desires of your heart: Psalms 37:4: “Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.”

God has the power and can give you the desires of your heart. As our Lord and Savior, he delights in seeing us happy and giving us gifts. Would you deny your child a gift you can easily give if you could? I think not; God is the same way.  This is why we should also keep God first and focus on him. 

Praying About The Vision

Prayer and aligning your vision with God will bring you your best year yet. Once you have all your goals gathered with specific measurements, you want to take them to God and pray about them. Why? Sometimes, we get in horrible and sticky situations because what we desire may not be best for us. 

Habakkuk 2:2-3 says,” And the Lord answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end, it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarries, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.” 

This means writing the vision down and making it clear.  Once you have done this, I want you to pray and believe these things will happen for you. Another reason we pray about it is so that God can align our vision and refine the ideas that may not work.

You may have to pray for weeks, months, or a year. Overall, Pray until something happens. Let God speak to you about your situation. Find an accountability partner to help you believe and pray over your goals and desires. You need to be consistent if you would like to see changes in your best year.

Execute your best year plan.

Lastly, you want to use your goals to help plan a daily or weekly schedule. You will see results if you stick to this schedule and stay consistent. When you see results in your life, you have changed your lifestyle and will meet your goals more quickly.

Once this happens, you can have the lifestyle you may have dreamed of. Remember to make time to rest and be easy on yourself. It is okay to fail to work on something or complete a task. Try again tomorrow; I promise it’s not the world's end.

I do the same sometimes. We can’t predict life or what will happen daily if we miss a goal or to-do item. I start over the next day. Life is unpredictable. We can’t always promise to complete our to-do list. I hope this post was beneficial to you.

Check out my YouTube videos to see some of the goals I am working on this year.  This year is everything you can hope for or wish for if you follow these simple steps.

 Finally, make sure to take time for self-care. This could include eating healthy, exercising, getting enough sleep, and scheduling time for relaxation and fun. Remember to ensure your cup is complete to help bless others without being tired or stressed.

With some planning and dedication, you can make 2023 your best year yet! If you enjoyed this article, try reading our others, such as “One Of My New Year’s Resolutions—Joining Weight Watchers In 2023 For Weight Loss Goal.”
