Having a tool to measure your progress on this journey is as important as having a mapping app when you head out on a road trip.

That’s where personal Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) come in.

What Are Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)?

These indicators are used to evaluate the success of a particular project, initiative, or overall performance.

By setting and monitoring KPIs, a team or individual can assess their performance against strategic goals, identify areas for improvement, and make data-driven decisions to optimize operations.

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) are not Just for Businesses

Establishing your own personal KPIs can help you evaluate how effectively you’re meeting your objectives and guide you in developing improvement plans.

They can cover various areas like health, productivity, relationships, or learning.
