Do you have a process for reflecting on the year that was - and for setting yourself up for an amazing year to come?

Joining me today is successful ABC broadcaster and host of Radio National’s ‘This Working Life’, Lisa Leong.

I sat down with Lisa for a chat about her annual tradition of reflecting on the year and setting goals for 2025.

Many of us do this, but how many of us are happy with the result? This episode covers a range of strategies you can use to reflect and set goals for a more successful 2025.

Lisa shares:

- 📓 Some unique strategies for using a diary to reflect on the past year

- 🔮 Why you should do a "pre-mortem" for the incoming year if you want to succeed

- ✂️ The importance of reflecting on what to remove from your life each year instead of what to add

- 🎯 What you should be doing instead of a traditional New Year’s resolution

Key Quotes:

“For me, discipline is freeing. I see a lot of freedom in discipline.”

“Don't worry too much about ‘how is that going to happen’, but just have the vision there - and the magic happens.”
