The Productivity Show

Here’s A Quick Way To Stay On Track With Your Goals All Year (TPS254)


Listen Later

At the beginning of the year, we set personal goals, family goals and for some even business goals. At the end of the year, we evaluate our achievements and weed out what didn’t work versus what did work. You don’t need to wait 12 months to evaluate your goals. A mid-year check-in is as equally important as an annual review. In this episode, we’ll give you 5 important things to look out for when you’re doing your mid-year check-in.
