Seth Kahan on Leadership // Monday Morning Mojo
Time for a Year-end Review
2013 to 2014Every December this is what I do:
  1. I review my personal calendar.
    Because I keep every appointment electronically, it's as simple as opening up my laptop. I take an hour and I scan every month, and make notes in my journal about
    • what went really well
    • what I loved the most
    • what I would like to do better with in the year ahead.

  2. I review my work engagements.
    I take a look at two email folders: Events and Clients. These two give me a great high-level overview of my work for the year. I go through them quickly, but take the time to dive down and read more thoroughly where I want to. Again, I take notes. I jot down:
    • what I am especially proud of
    • who I love working with
    • ideas I have for making next year an even better one.
These two activities take me only 2-3 hours and they give me a great review of the year. Then I am both inspired and ready to set goals for 2014. These are not New Year's resolutions. They are aspirations: what I hope for, shooting for the moon!

Celebrate what you want to see more of.
