Online ‘fun generator’ assigns you ‘bonkers’ goal to achieve in 2023

This “fun generator” will help set you a mad, silly goal for 2023 – from dancing the Macarena, to learning to juggle.

It comes as a study of 2,000 adults found that two-thirds (67%) have set themselves goals to change something in their lives this year – such as losing weight or drinking more water.

The top target for 2023 was to exercise more – while saving money, travelling more, and keeping a tidy home also ranked highly.

But 64% believe there’s too much of a tendency to set overly serious goals – and believe greater emphasis should be on having fun.

As a result, 888 Online Casino, which commissioned the research, has revealed its randomised fun generator – which will assign you a completely bananas goal for 2023.



Learning to juggle is another fun target for this year

The study, via OnePoll, also found most adults (59%) have set themselves a goal of some sort in the past.

And 33% of those who have done so tend to write a list of things they want to improve about themselves, and then pick one.

Success, however, seems to be relatively low – as just three out of 10 goals set are achieved.

But if you have hopes of doing something special this year, don’t let this revelation put you off – as almost half (46%) are optimistic over their aims for the next 10 months or so.

And even more reassuringly, 28% have set themselves a goal that has led to permanent positive changes in their lives.
