2018 Goals

It’s that time of the year. The dust has started to settle on 2017 and people are reflecting on their year, what they have achieved & the ups and down that come with.

2017 has been a crazy year for me. If you’ve been following along my journey you probably know what I’ve been up to. In case you haven’t, this year I launched Australia’s first sneaker brand (Athletikan), continued scaling Uncle Jack, launched Uncle Jack’s active watch brand (AKTIK) & have been developing my personal profile.

Now is the best time to not only reflect on the year that’s been but also start planning for the next 12 months. I’m absolutely a believer in goal-setting, because otherwise we are just working aimlessly towards nothing in particular. I’m sharing my 2018 goals publicly to hold myself accountable. This time next year, I’ll post again publicly on whether I’ve achieved my goals and why/not.
(See my 2017 year in review here.)

I’ve broken my goals down into categories. A set of goals for each business, a set for my personal business ambitions & also personal goals. This combination gives me a really well-rounded approach to the year and certainly doesn’t neglect what I want to do outside of work.
