🌱 Introduction
The One Goal for This Year SpinzyWheel is a powerful, inspiring activity designed to encourage long-term thinking, positive planning, and meaningful reflection. Unlike short weekly goals, this version helps participants look at the bigger picture—what they truly want to achieve, improve, or experience over the course of the year. By turning goal-setting into a game-like activity, the SpinzyWheel makes this reflection approachable, motivating, and full of joy.
💡 Why It’s Important
Yearly goals provide direction and purpose. They remind us that growth is a journey, not a race. However, many people—children and adults alike—find long-term planning overwhelming. The SpinzyWheel solves this by guiding participants with fun, bite-sized prompts. Instead of staring at a blank page, they spin and receive an area of focus: school, kindness, health, creativity, family, or gratitude. This structure makes the goal-setting process exciting, interactive, and achievable.
🌟 Connection to Gratitude
This SpinzyWheel is not just about ambition; it’s also about appreciation. By reflecting on what’s already good in their lives, participants can set goals that build on gratitude. For example, a child who appreciates friends may set a goal to make one new friend this year. An adult who values health may aim to maintain consistency in exercise. Gratitude keeps the focus balanced—striving for growth while cherishing the present.
