Setting Goals That Actually Stick in 2026

from Building a Business: Grit & Grace · host Leficomp

In this first episode of 2026, Anna Angelova and Jores Minasvand kick off the year with a grounded, honest conversation about goal setting and why most goals fail long before February. This isn’t about ambitious resolutions or pressure-filled plans. It’s about setting goals that actually support the business and life you want to live and knowing how to adjust them as the year unfolds. In this episode, Anna and Jores break down: Why setting goals is easy, but sticking to them is the real work How to set one meaningful business goal that matches your stage of growth Why every business owner needs a personal well-being goal, not as a “nice to have,” but as a foundation How to approach growth differently if you’re just starting vs. already generating revenue The difference between dreams and realistic, achievable goals Why belief, emotions, and intuition matter just as much as logic when setting goals How to review and recalibrate your goals regularly instead of setting and forgetting them Whether you’re an aspiring entrepreneur, a solopreneur, or running a small or mid-sized business, this episode will help you start 2026 with clarity, intention, and momentum without burning out by March. Because the goal isn’t to set more goals. It’s to set the right ones and build the habits to support them.
