A year end review is an important part of reflecting on your past so you can grow in your future. It's a powerful exercise because it allows you to see how far you've really come, even if you didn't achieve all of your goals. Before you create any New Year's Resolutions, go through these exercises to see what you truly need to focus on!

As I mentioned last week, the process for this year end review and planning for 2022 is broken into 3 different parts:

Part 1 - Collecting the evidence
Part 2 - Putting Insights Into Action
Part 3 - Setting Up Your Processes and Systems

This blog outlines Part 2 - Putting Insights Into Action.

Part 2

Step 1

Thinking ahead to 2022, putting the insights into action. Grab your notebook and start to answer the following questions:

List out 10-20 goals, you’d like to achieve. (Don’t censor yourself, just create a rapid fire list)
Of the goals on the list, which three goals will you accomplish next year? What’s important about them?
Why do you want to achieve them? Knowing your ‘why’ will help you move faster towards your dreams.
What two or three skills / competencies will you acquire?
What is one superpower that you will utilize to achieve your goals?
How do you intend to be different by the end of next year?
What does success in 2022 mean for you? How will you measure success?

Step 2

Applying your Reflection

What do you need to start doing / stop doing?
What do you need to say no to / yes to?
What do you need to walk away from?
What are two or three habits or behaviors you will stop / start / continue?
How will you step out of your comfort zone and face your fears?
What obstacles will you face and how will you overcome them to accomplish your goals?

I hope you find these questions to be thought provoking, empowering and motivating. At any point in the process, feel free to email me at salima@unleashforward.com with any questions, comments or feedback. I would be delighted to hear from you. Good luck!
