Severely underestimated how long it takes to plan and sew even a thrift flip. As a recap, this is what I wrote in my previous post:
Sewing Goals:
Crop 3 Tops – Only completed 2, one of which I was more ambitious and added drawstring features
Clone 1 Top – Done with tracing the patterns but I realised I didn't have enough fabric and would probably have to use 2 shirts. Might end up as a reversible top!
Anyway I realised these goals are not very well written because they don't follow the SMART format. Because what ended up happening was I got side tracked with other projects...
Projects that I've completed:
Mended a hole in denim overalls
Replaced a spoilt elastic in a dress
Started on an embroidery kit
Built a home for my scrunchies
Fixed curtain hooks
Changed a window UV filter
Assembled a new shoe cabinet
Completed a 72 Hour UX Challenge
In the perspective of the sewing goals it would look like I've failed but I still take it as a win though. In that time I've worked simultaneously on other projects that were also relevant and interesting to me.
SMART Goals Recap
Specific: clear and well-defined, leaving no room for ambiguity. It answers the questions of who, what, where, when, why, and how.
Measurable: quantifiable metrics that allow you to track progress and determine when the goal has been achieved.
Achievable: realistic and attainable given your current resources and constraints. It should be challenging but not impossible.
Relevant: aligns with your overall objectives and values. It should be meaningful and contribute to your broader success.
Time-bound: a specific deadline or timeframe for completion. This creates a sense of urgency and helps you stay focused.
