This year has been anything but ordinary – but we know that didn’t stop you. Whether you caught your first wave on a new board, moved cross country, upcycled old gear, or cleared some space to make room for a home office, we’re just stoked you made StorQuest part of your journey. But you’re only getting started! StorQuest is here to help you make next year your best one yet. Check out our ultimate goal planning guide for 2022.

Reflect

Stop. Before you move forward, take a moment to reflect on everything you accomplished this year. Look at old photos. Chat it up with adventure buddies. Take a mindful hike. What were your biggest moments? What challenges did you overcome? Give yourself credit for pushing yourself to do more. You made it happen.

Set New Goals

Now’s the fun part! Think about everything you want to accomplish in 2022. Was there something you didn’t get to this year? If you’re still passionate about it, now’s the time to refocus. Or maybe 2022 is all about creating opportunities to explore new hobbies. Whatever it is you’re after, keep a running list and lay out what you’ll need to do to find success.

Think Small, Dream Big

While it may be hard to set definite timelines, especially if you’re tackling something totally new and unfamiliar to you, sketch a rough outline of what the path will look like to take you wherever you want to go. Conceive smaller, realistic objectives within those larger, long-term goals. Achieving smaller victories will make bigger dreams seem less daunting and will motivate you to stay on track. If you miss a self-imposed deadline, that’s OK. Reset expectations and keep going. Before you know it, you’ll be blazing past former goalposts and setting the bar even higher.

Stay in the Moment

Do what you need to do to focus on the task at hand. Keep a running list for the day; scratching an item off the list just feels good. Play music that helps you zero in. Encourage yourself with verbal reminders. Don’t forget to take breaks, too. Go for a rejuvenating jog, stay hydrated, just chill – experiment with what works for you.

Make Space for the New Year

If your home is feeling cluttered, you might find it hard to focus. Clearing out your working space is a great way to get a fresh new start, and we can help you there. StorQuest Self Storage facilities are conveniently located near life’s big adventures. Find a location near you and make your 2022 all the more awesome.
