Planning for 2025

 On today show we are looking forward to this upcoming year 2025. Last month, our team took an entire week offsite on a cruise ship for our annual goal setting retreat.

The process of goal setting starts with gaining clarity on your values, and then bringing your goals into alignment with those values. If your goals are not in alignment with your values, you will experience a profound dissonance in your life.

One of the things I personally struggle with is finding the balance between planning versus doing. Some days it feels like there is so much to do that. There is no time left to plan.

Some days, no, many days, I experience what feels like a personal battle with the clock. It seems like there are never enough hours in the day to complete what I want to get done. So much so that it felt like the end of the year and the entire month of December was a sprint to the finish line to complete our goals for the year.

A goal without a plan is merely a hope. I hope without a plan is a recipe for failure. So after the champagne is on ice for tonight‘s new year celebration, I will be spending the bulk of the day translating those goals that are lacking a plan Into something far more concrete.
