How to makethe most ofa year

One of my mentors, Jim Rohnsaid you have to ‘finish your yearbefore you start it’ that’sprecisely what this is all about.helping you decide what you wantand what to do next to achieve it.

1. Take enough time to reflect and be specific when you answer the ‘most importantquestion’ remember, you gravitate towards your most dominant thoughts.

2. Utilise the Ideas page and the Mind Map to have no rules or boundaries - write whateveryou dream or desire on it.

3. When you do the Wheel of Life be very specific about the evaluation and be careful not justto ‘make every goal 10/10’. Be realistic but include a stretch for yourself. If there are anyareas not covered add them in at your discretion.

4. Pages 7 and 8 are designed to be written AS IF you have accomplished them already. An example might be: “I love the feeling of being 5kg lighter as aresult of my healthy eating choices and exercise disciplines, I feel better about myself, I havemore energy and am more confident in my new clothes”. Do this ‘as if’ statement for each ofyour 8 areas of focus.

5. Use the Annual Planning section to look at an overview of the entire year.You may want to include important dates, birthdays, anniversaries,school holidays, travel so that you get an overallfeel for the flow of your year.

TO GET THE MOST OUT OF THIS YEARLY PLANNER ISUGGEST YOU DO THE FOLLOWING:

Go on, finish your year beforeyou start it and make it great!

6. Use the 90 Day Planning to breakdown the big goals you have from your Wheel of Life toput weekly activities you must complete to achieve each of these goals. This is themost detailed planning tool you have.

7. You can further breakdown the 90 Days into each month ahead and plan the activity andfocus for the next calendar month. This allows you to be adaptable to external issues likefamily, work, travel etc. Use the month view in the same way you would use a year view.

8. Planning for the next year can begin as soon as you know what your priorities and big goalsare, begin to put the most important things in place and other important dates as you go.
