I find the end of the year a good time to take stock of my personal history business. I set aside a day and look at my successes and the things that didn’t work. I make a point of writing this all down. It’s an important exercise that holds me accountable and keeps me growing as a professional. Why not take some time and do your own year-end review? A word of caution. Don’t beat yourself up for perceived failures but at the same time don’t sweep them under the rug. Here are the questions I ask myself. What questions would you add? Let me know. I’d like to hear from you.
- What has worked this year?
- Why has it worked?
- What have I learned from my successes?
- How will I apply this learning to next year?
- What hasn’t worked this year?
- Why hasn’t it worked?
- What have I learned from my failures?
- How will I apply this learning to next year?
- What do I need to do more of?
- What do I need to do less of?
- On a scale of 1 to 10, how satisfied am I with my performance this year?
- What do I need to do to push my satisfaction level higher?
- Where do I want to be at this time next year?
- What do I have to do to get there?
