Final Words

Addressing What Has Not Worked Makes It Easier to Let Go of Things

If something has not worked this year, instead of holding on to it, let it go after you have extracted what you need so you can have a better year.

If you don't address what has not worked, which can include reasons you did not reach your goals or mistakes you made, you're likely to keep doing the same things, which will produce the same results.

While looking at what did not work or what you did wrong can feel uncomfortable, it's a powerful way to learn and avoid repeating the same things next year.

MAKE IT COUNT

An action step you can take this week is to block out an hour or two before the end of the year to do a full review of your year. Use the article on completing a comprehensive year review to capture what you did well and what you will do differently next year.

Have a wonderful festive season and best wishes for the new year.
