Happy New Year!!!   In this episode, I'm sharing the framework I use and that we implement at the Launch Pad Mastermind to blast into the new year with purpose and direction.   The three main pieces of the framework are:

1. Reflecting on the past year
2. Setting goals for the upcoming year
3. Creating a Launch Plan (action plan) to accomplish those goals

  Here are a few questions and concepts that are discussed in the episode:   Reflecting on the past year Questions to ask yourself:

1. What went well this year?
2. • What did you accomplish over the past year?
   • What were your biggest wins?
   • What contributed to those wins?
   • How can you make those results repeatable?
   • What didn't you accomplish?
   • Why not?
   • Did you set goals at the beginning of last year? What were they?
3. What didn’t go so well this year?
   • How could you have overcome last year's challenges?
   • What could have made the year better?
   • How do you repeat the positives?
4. What did I learn?

  Write your "old story" of who you were in the last year.   Setting goals for the upcoming year Before setting goals, need to think about what areas/buckets in your life you want to set goals. For example, the main buckets I focus on are:

• Family and Relationships
• Business
• Finances
• Fitness
• Faith

  Make sure you are setting SMART goals:

• Specific
• Measurable
• Attainable 
• Relevant
• Time-bound

  Creating a Launch Plan to accomplish those goals Nice goals! Are you feeling some resistance? That's totally normal. You just need a plan because action is the best remedy for resistance.   Here are some tips:

• Start with the end in mind 
• Break each goal down into smaller steps
• Take one step at a time, but always towards the goal
• Key to reaching your goal is CONSISTENT ACTION
