How a goals bingo card works
Write 24 goals for the year on a 5x5 card, one to a square, with the free space in the middle. Put the card where you see it every day. Each time you reach a goal, mark its square and write the date. Lines are milestones along the way: a first line by spring keeps you going, and a blackout by December is the stretch. It works because small goals count too, so the card fills up faster than a list of three big resolutions.
Make your own card
Delete the ideas in the form below and type your own 24 goals, one per line, then set the number of cards to 1 and download the PDF. With exactly 24 goals your card has room for all of them; with more, each card gets a different 24. A 4x4 card needs 16 goals, a 3x3 card with a free space only 8, which suits a first try or a child's card.
A good mix of goals
Make about a third of the squares quick wins you can mark in January, such as a museum visit or a new recipe, a third goals that take a few months, and a few big ones for the whole year. Spread them over health, money, people, learning and fun, so one bad month in one area does not stop the whole card. Write each goal so you know when it is done: "read 12 books" can be marked, "read more" cannot.
For a family, a class or a team
Print the ready set of 30 different cards and let everyone pick one, or cross out the goals that do not fit and write in their own. Check the cards together once a month, and give a small prize for the first line. Teachers use a class version with goals like "read a chapter book" or "learn a times table"; edit the list to fit your grade.
