Why Most Goal Lists Die by February
Most goal lists get written in a burst of January energy and never read again. The ones that survive have a plan for the days the energy is gone.
- You write twelve goals and cannot say which one matters most.
- The goals are wishes: get fit, save money, be happier.
- Nobody wrote down what will get in the way.
- There is no page for March, when the plan needs adjusting.
- You wanted a plan, and the kit handed you scissors and a glue stick.

Why the Workbook Makes You Cut Twelve Goals to Three
Twelve possible goals is a feature. The workbook asks you to write all twelve, then cut them with three questions, so you end with three you chose and not three you defaulted to. Two is plenty if that is what you have.
Each priority then gets an obstacle and an if-then plan. In 2006, Peter Gollwitzer and Paschal Sheeran reviewed 94 tests of if-then planning and found a medium-to-large effect on reaching goals (d = 0.65). That is an average across many kinds of goals, not a promise for yours, but it is the reason the obstacle page comes before the first week.
The workbook text was drafted with AI assistance. Ink and Index directed it, then edited, checked and laid out every page. The listing says so, and this page does too.

The PDF is made to print and write on. It is not an editable template.

More questions
How is it different from the Vision Board Kit?
The kit has a 26-page workbook plus six ready-made boards, blank layouts, word cards and photographs. This workbook has 40 pages and no pictures, and goes deeper on planning, with a page for each priority, four quarter pages and a midyear review.
Can I print only some pages?
Yes. Print the sections you want. The weekly reset, monthly check-in and quarterly review are made to be printed again.
Is it a good New Year resolution planner?
Yes. It starts with a look back at the year, then helps you pick three goals and plan the first thirty days, which is where most resolutions fall apart.
Can I print it more than once?
Print as many copies as you need for yourself. Please do not share, resell or redistribute the files.
Was AI used to make it?
Yes. The workbook text was drafted with AI assistance. Ink and Index directed it, then edited, checked and laid out every page.
Is this financial, legal or mental health advice?
No. It is a goal-setting and planning book. It is not financial, medical, legal or mental health advice.
What size does it print?
Print at 100%, not 'fit to page'. The PDFs come in US Letter and A4.
What if a file will not open?
Email the address on the contact page. If a file will not open or is not what the listing describes, it gets fixed or replaced.
