How To Make 2020 Work For You
If you want 2020 to be a year which works for you, rather than you working for it, then now may be the time to set yourself some goals.
Now is a good time for all of us to also reflect on the year which has just past, and ask yourself a few important questions, the answers to which will have a major impact on the year to come.
1. Did I achieve the goals I set for myself last year?
Did I achieve my financial goals for 2019?
Did I achieve my personal goals in 2019?
2. Did I have specifically defined written goals for 2019 for both my professional and my personal life?
The average person did not, which is why they will always be average!
3. Did I have a written delivery schedule for the achievement of my goals?
The average person did not. Goals without a written delivery schedule are only wishful thinking and will rarely be achieved.
4. If I didn’t achieve my goals in 2019, what will I do differently in 2020 to ensure that I do achieve my goals?
This is true that if you always do what you’ve always done, then you’ll always get what you’ve always got!
In other words if you don’t do something different in 2020 than what you did in 2019, then it’s likely that you will not achieve a better result this year than you did last year. This applies equally in our personal lives as much as it does in our professional lives.
5. What did I learn from my experiences and results in 2019 that I can apply in 2020 to achieve the results that I really want?
Sadly most people do not learn from their “mistakes”. Use any mistakes you made as an opportunity to have a “learning experience”, however they will not be learning experiences if we do not look for the lesson in each experience.
