It’s the beginning of a new year! Time to get moving on any goals you’ve set for yourself.
I know that you can start working toward any goal at any time, but personally, I like the set timeframe I have with the beginning and end of a year. It’s not an arbitrary time frame, it’s one that everyone recognizes and I don’t have to look too hard to figure out how far into my goals I am or how far I need to go.
With that said, and my list of 100 Sunshine Goals for the New Year, I’m giving you writing prompts related to goal setting this month.
Have fun and happy writing!

Hi! I love the writing prompts. I will definitely be using them for some inspiration for my blog. So far my blog is mainly healthy recipes and food related, but I am hoping to make it a little bit more personable this year.
That’s wonderful! That’s why I share them. If you want to go with a different theme, check out some of my other writing prompts, I’m always coming up with new things to write about, lol. Have fun with them and be creative!
