The One Thing I Do at the Beginning of Each Year
By: Tim Elmore
Last week, I posted a ritual I perform at the end of each year. A second ritual I do is a natural follow-up. It enables me to enter a new year on purpose. After I invest a morning reviewing the previous year, I spend the second half of the day previewing the new year. I think, write, and reflect as I open a new chapter of my life.
I don’t simply create a list of goals, although some of the items I will list below feel a lot like goals. I like to view it as an action list and a standard list. What are the actions I plan to take and what are the standards I plan to live by over the next year?
Here are the issues I address to create the goals, actions, and standards for a new year:
- What are my greatest dreams for 2022? What projects will these dreams require of me? What daily actions must I engage in to fulfill them?
- What standards will I live by throughout the next year?
-
- Health Standards
- Family Standards
- Financial Standards
- Friendship Standards
- Personal/Spiritual Standards
- In what areas of my life do I most want to grow in 2022?
- What books will I read this next year to achieve these growth goals?
- What mentors will I seek out to achieve these growth goals?
- What magazines will I scan and file to achieve these growth goals?
- What events will I attend to achieve these growth goals?
- To what podcasts (audio recordings) will I listen to help me grow?
- What will I do Monday through Friday to be intentional about my growth?
I want to be better in January of 2022 than I was in January of 2021. To do this, I have found that my issue is not prioritizing my schedule but rather scheduling my priorities. This means I must put into my calendar those things I say are the most important habits and attitudes I can embrace.
Our character is simply made up of the habits and attitudes we possess daily. Especially in the aftermath of a pandemic, where a new normal has been established, it is wise to lay the tracks that enable us to stay on course in our lives. I hope this is helpful.
Thank for great ideas. Happy New Year everyone!
You’ve mentioned the investors here. And what I can recommend is to take it a bit back, to ease it down. You’ve probably had already seen what happened to the market in 2020-21. And the best niches for investment now are real estate and precious metals. The prices are constantly going up, and you can count on these.
