Q2 2026: Setting up your business + personal goals for this quarter
I came up with this concept after I failed to set New Year’s resolutions at the beginning of 2023 and was disappointed that I didn’t achieve much.
Since 2024, I’ve been practising quarterly goal-setting.
Here’s my next list for Q2 (April, May, June) 2026.
Work goals:
👉 Publish 30 YouTube videos – one every day, right after the video editors deliver them to me.
👉 Finish the first LinkedIn-related MVP that I decided to build (and not be blocked on LinkedIn until then).
👉 Help a client reach 10k followers on LinkedIn and maintain this collaboration.
👉 If the collaboration above holds, maybe resume shooting videos on YT (1-long form per month + 2 short)
Personal goals:
👉 Continue exercising every day.
👉 As soon as the weather improves, start running with a local club again.
👉 Read a book every day / possibly use foreign language exercise books.
👉 Travel. (But it's not a priority right now.)
Can you please outline your career and personal goals for this quarter?
Be bold and outline at least 3 for each category. :)

@nuel23 Cool. Which countries do you wanna visit? :) BTW, feel free to drop link to your social media :)
Here are my Q2 2026 goals:
Work:
🚀 Scale Vetly and Spoilr to 1,000+ AppStore users through community-led growth.
🛠️ Shipping one major "surprise" feature for each app based purely on user feedback.
📈 Secure 2-3 strategic partnerships to expand our niche reach.
Personal:
🏃♂️ Consistency is key: Hitting that 5km run 3x a week (my playlist is ready!).
✈️ Quality time: Taking 2 family trips to recharge and get away from the screens.
🎸 Fun goal: Finally learning to play 3 of my favorite songs on the guitar—or at least failing gracefully!
Setting quarterly goals feels so much more manageable than yearly ones. Good luck with the 30 YouTube videos, Nika! That's a massive commitment.

@kevin_xu01 Good luck with that App Store scaling. BTW, today I read this post, may be helpful for you – about App growth :) https://x.com/maubaron/status/2027551137768083619
@busmark_w_nika That’s incredibly kind of you to share, Nika! I’m heading over to check that out right now—fresh growth tactics are exactly what I need for the Q2 push. 🚀 Wishing you a smooth run with your LinkedIn MVP launch!

@kevin_xu01 Thank you so much :) Hopefully, you will get as many users as possible :)
Love this! My Q2 goals:
Work: Get first 10 beta users for ParcelPing, launch on Shopify App Store, reach 100 X followers
Personal: Ship something every day, take a walk outside daily, read one book
Building in public keeps me accountable. Good luck with your 30 videos! 🙌

@michelle_parcelping Do you have any specific plan how to hit those 10 beta users? :)
@busmark_w_nika Yes! Main plan is launching on Shopify App Store in 2 weeks. Until then — building in public on X, connecting with Shopify sellers, and getting feedback wherever I can. How do you usually find your first users? 😊

@michelle_parcelping Not gonna lie, I do not have any product to promote, but people usually found me through my personal brand and social media presence :)
@busmark_w_nika That makes total sense! Personal brand is so powerful. I'm trying to build that with #buildinpublic on X right now — still early days but loving the process. Thanks for the insight! 😊
