Bring your year end to a definite conclusion and start 2012 with a clear direction. (Why wouldn’t you?)

Myself and Mrs. Fox sit down every year about this time with a glass of sherry and a mince pie and run through the following ‘completion exercise’. In doing so we have tied up and reflected on our last year, giving consideration to accomplishments and setting the tone for what lies ahead. It’s actually really rewarding and quite pleasant!:

  • What did I accomplish both personally and professionally? (Everything counts from landing business deals to surviving another year as a parent with everyone intact!)
  • What difficulties did I have to overcome to realise those accomplishments?
  • What qualities and strengths did I evoke to handle those difficulties?
  • Given all the above what is now possible for me this next year? (Your 12 month personal and professional goals)

 

All the very best for an extra-ordinary 2012.

Procrastination is mostly frowned on by the ‘hyped up think later’ mindset as the enemy of the people. OK, so spontaneity is a powerful thing, even planned spontaneity serves a purpose.

Sometimes though we procrastinate just because instinctively we know something is not right and our gut feel is stopping us getting into trouble.

Are you really procrastinating? Or, are you just not thinking this idea through enough to iron out a few more kinks?

For heavens sake don’t just do something, stand there!
