We are nearing the end of 2018. It’s time to do an annual review.
In this episode I discuss several tools that help us to do an annual review. I focus time on the Best Year Yet! method as outlined by Jinny Ditzler in her book. I also discuss some valuable tools that I use from the Momentum Planner folks at Productive Flourishing (Momentum Planner).
Here is a link to Jinny Ditzler’s terrific and timeless book about creating your best year yet:
How can we use our time wisely right now to finish 2018 with style and prepare room for expansion for 2019. I propose several questions that I find useful to help me clear out some sticky spots in my life that will hamper my progress in the coming year.
I will podcast soon about engaging in a purposeful annual review that will have a very positive impact on the next year. Today’s episode will suggest the kinds of questions and topics that will help you focus on using the end of the year to leave a positive impact.
