Mindful New Year Business Planning
Welcome to episode 15 of Growth Addicts. This episode airs at the start of December 2024, a time when a lot of small business owners are starting to reflect on the year gone past and think about the new year ahead.
In this episode I talk about when I consider my new year to be (I am not a January new year gal!) and the strategy I use to reflect, digest and review the year that’s gone. I share with you my journaling prompts to ensure we consider how the year felt, as well as the nuts and bolts of the numbers etc, and of course, how to dream big and set goals for the new year that are realistic and achievable - and not just about work!
So as always, pull up a chair with a cuppa, grab a pen and paper and let’s go.
Thanks as always to our season 2 sponsor Kirsty of @km.accountancy
