Right way to begin the year?

Before we dive head first into a new year, willy-nilly, let’s begin by being grateful to be able to do so! Then, it might be helpful to ask ourselves the question, “how to make it a good year?” or better yet “a very good year…” 

Since I don’t consider myself an expert in this particular field, I’ve done some research in an effort to help us all discover the perfect answer for a magic formula, if there’s one. Experts say to begin by reviewing the past year, including victories, challenges, and lessons learned. in an effort to understand what has worked well for us. 

After doing it, we should be ready to set some meaningful goals after defining what "good" means to us and making sure whichever objective we choose to pursue, they align with our values and aspirations. We should make them specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound. I could add more advice, but let’s keep this light and simple to just get us thinking, if not going hard and fast into 2024. 

Happy New Year!
