There’s something powerful about a fresh year, and I’m kicking off 2026 with a simple plan and big intentions for my online selling journey. I've decided it's time to set clear goals, and take real steps toward growing my online selling journey.
Welcome to 2026 – Setting Goals for My Online Selling Journey
Welcome, everyone, and welcome to 2026! I’m starting this year with intention, focus, and a clear plan for what I want to achieve over the next 12 months. Last year taught me so much about consistency, learning as I go, and taking small steps toward success. Now it’s time to put that into action.
Here are the main goals I’m setting for myself this year:
1. Gain Financial Freedom by Clearing Debt
Financial freedom has always been my top priority. Through my online selling journey — on platforms like eBay, Vinted, Depop, and Whatnot — I’ve discovered how even small sales can add up over time. This year, I want to focus on using that income to clear debt and take control of my finances. It’s not about instant wealth; it’s about creating security, independence, and the freedom to make choices that matter.
2. Finally Finish the DIY on My House
Home is where the heart is — and in 2026, I want our house to truly feel like ours. Completing DIY projects isn’t just about improving the space; it’s about creating a home I’m proud of, one that reflects my family and lifestyle. This year, I’m committed to making steady progress and finally finishing the projects I’ve been working on for years.
3. Become More Proactive in Achieving Goals
One lesson from my online selling journey is that having goals is only half the battle — consistent action is what makes the difference. In 2026, I’m committing to being proactive: breaking larger goals into smaller, weekly steps, tracking progress, and celebrating wins along the way. Whether it’s listing more items online, learning new selling strategies, or tackling personal projects, staying consistent will be key to success.
