Halfway There: Reviewing Your 2024 Goals Like a Real Flexxer

Halfway There: Reviewing Your 2024 Goals Like a Real Flexxer

Hey fam! June is packing its bags, and with it comes a question that hits harder than that first taste of smoky jollof: how are you doing on those New Year resolutions?

We get it. Life for the young Nigerian is a non-stop hustle. Between chasing that bag, dodging traffic jams, and catching up on the latest Naija jams and internet gist, who has time to reflect? But hold on, before you close this tab because “self-review” sounds dry, hear us out. Taking stock of your progress halfway through the year is like checking your account balance before going shopping in Eko market – essential for financial finesse!

I know you’re wondering “Who Mid-Year Performance Help”?

Think of yourself as a top entrepreneur running YOU Plc – you run the show and so you’ve got to be strategic! Reviewing your goals is like taking inventory. Did you hit your savings target? Are you on track for that business idea? How’s that TikTok account or YouTube channel performing so far? A mid-year check-in helps you course-correct. Maybe you need to adjust your budget for that  Asoebi or double down on that online hustle so that your goals will be accomplished.

That being said, Here’s How to Slay Your Mid-Year Review:

• Grab Your Jollof Meter (a.k.a. Progress Tracker): Did you write down your goals in January? Perfect! Dust them off and see how much “jollof” (achievement) you’ve served yourself. Did you plan to learn a new skill? Have you smashed that Duolingo streak? What’s the update on that school application?

• Be Honest (But Kind) to Yourself: We all have those days where the snooze button wins. Don’t beat yourself up if you haven’t conquered everything. Instead, be honest about what’s working and what isn’t.

• Adjust Your Hustle Strategy: Life throws curveballs – that dream job application might still be “under review” or your side hustle needs a marketing boost. Don’t be afraid to adapt! Research new opportunities, tweak your budget, or seek help from a mentor (we have some financial gurus at FCMB that can help you, you know ).

Bonus Tip: Turn Your Review into a Flexx Session!

Celebrating your wins, big or small, is key. Hit that savings goal? Treat yourself to some shawarma or a designer bag, depending on what your pocket admits 😁! Finally mastered that killer dance move? Show it off on TikTok/Instagram! Sharing your progress with friends (who are hopefully cheering you on, not hating) keeps you motivated.

Remember, it’s your bank and you: We’re your partners for life!

We at FCMB are here to support your financial journey, from budgeting to investment options. So, if your mid-year review reveals a need to boost your savings or plan for the future, we’re just a click away! Talk to us here

Now go forth, Flexxers, and dominate the rest of 2024! And don’t forget, abeg, review your progress again in December – because we know you’ll have a success story to tell!
