005: Tammie Bennett talks about how pausing and taking time to reflect can help you move forward. 

Here's how reflecting can help you move forward with more direction and joy:

1. Reminds us what we are capable of.  Reflecting on the hard things you've done shuts down your inner mean voice.
2. Reminds us what we can do in the future.  You've done hard things in the past and you can do hard things again. 
3. Lifts our mood.  When you open up your "file of wins" you'll lift your mood and put yourself back in action.
4. Gives us an idea of what we need to tweak.  Looking back on what worked or didn't work helps us move forward in a clearer direction.
5. Looking back helps you spot trends in your thinking and can help you make better decisions
6. Closes out the year.  have a reflection party with friends or family and remember all the good things that happened.  and the things that might need work.
7. Helps you plan for the year ahead.  What do you want more of?  less of?
8. Reflect daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly or yearly.  Be honest, neutral and don't judge yourself on what has happened in the past. 
9. Keeps you on track for long term goals.  If you don't pause to see what you've done, how will you know what you still need to do?
