This episode is coming to you on 31 December 2018, the last day of yet another year.

I know it’s cliche setting new year’s resolutions and I don’t really do those, but I do find that this time of the year is really great for taking the time out to reflect, reset and refocus for the year ahead.

It’s like that analogy - you’re too busy driving to stop and refuel...So at some point, you need to stop at that service station, get out and fuel up, and I find this time of the year is the best time to do that but hey, the lessons I’m sharing can apply at any time, so if you’re listening in the middle of April it’s all good!

If you’re like me, you may be spending this time away from work, and getting your brain all charged up and inspired by burning through podcast episodes and books. At the same time last year, 31 Dec 2017, I did a lot of work to set my 2018 up, and all I want to do on today’s episode is to share some of the cool tools, processes I used to do that, and really highlight some key podcasts and books that have helped me, and you may resonate with too!

I’m really excited to make it the best year ever.  If you work through this process, I’d love to hear how you go! Shoot me a DM on Instagram @leannehughes and tell me one of your goals, or simply one thing you learnt from this episode that you may use in future.

In this episode you’ll learn:

  • The tools I use to reflect on my year and how you can use these when you work on your projects for 2019

  • The questions I ask to recognise what I can build on in 2019

  • How to set up your theme of the year (and how this plays out in setting criteria for what to say yes/no)

  • Why you need to spend more time defining the right questions
