How-to reflect on your goals and dreams in three steps

3 Steps for an End of the Year Goal Review

Happy December! We only have a few more weeks of the year. I would like to ask you. “How did you do on last year’s goals, resolutions and adventures?” It’s that time. Time to reflect on your goals and dreams – let’s take a moment for an end of the year goal review. Here are three easy steps for your review

It’s the end of the year, let’s reflect on the goals and dreams we wanted to achieve this year.

Firstly, envision, reflect and revisit what these goals/dreams were in the beginning of the year.

• What goals/dreams were achieved? 
• Is the reason for the goal/dream still relevant?
• What just plain outright did not work? 

Secondly, consider these questions.

• Can you still see yourself achieving them? Should you take them into the new year?
• Do you need to extend a time frame?
• What new next step or sidestep has shown itself?
• Can you ask for help? Or find a class?

Lastly, go to the *** note and consider if you should take it off the list.

***Now before you go any further down this path.

*** You should take a look at your list and see if any items just need to be gone. If they do cross them off, delete them or write in red “this was not for me!” Often, we add things we think we should be doing or are pressured to do. If that is the case, take it off. Maybe you thought you wanted this goal and now are not so sure about it. Take-It-Off-the-List!!!

This is an action we need to do a little more of, I believe. If something does not call to us, serve us, lights a fire in us or gives us butterflies (even the little-bit-scary ones) it should not stay on our list. It can come back on the list if it does one of those things. But we do not need them on our list if they are only adding stress or negative emotions.

Finally after you’ve reflected on your goals and dreams, here is a reminder.

Most important to remember, this is our one and only life. What do you envision for it? What are your dreams, goals and adventures? Resolutions don’t need to be heavy dreaded changes. Maybe it is better self-care. Or adding more fun, exploring and adventure to your year. You’ve got this, you can hear those inner rumblings. 

Bring those rumblings, bring them to reality and add them to this year’s list. Join me the last week of December for creating your dream of 2023. It is a week of daily journal prompts, activities and 2 live zoom meetings. Sign up here for this webinar. Please make time to envision your dream and create a plan. Above all it releases overwhelm and stress and, most importantly, gets us to achieving our dreams. Meanwhile, if you want to know about me, one of my big goals is this business. Here is my very first blog explaining my ‘Why?’.
