At least that’s been true for me.
I am trying something new this year. I plan to plan better. Accomplish more with less effort by being more efficient and organized.
The reason we all get into this cycle is the new year really affects most people deeply. It is a new fresh start in many ways.
It represents opportunity to reflect on the past year and address problems and habits that formed that were not in our plan this time last year.
It gives us an excuse to do major housekeeping and cleaning out the clutter in our businesses and daily lives.
The problem is keeping the focus on what you want to accomplish for a whole year. This is why new years resolutions are broken.
Or why we end up wondering what happened to some of those goals we had last year.
Yep, we need a plan. At least I do. Something has to change because I don’t want a single regret next year at this time. My big resolution is to plan out my goals and see each one through as efficiently and practically as possible so I can reflect, for the first time in my life, on a year that went according to plan.
(Of course you have to allow for “life” to happen. I am not expecting the impossible here!)
This might help if you are in the same frame of mind as me.
Have a Happy New Year!
