With the end of 2021 around the corner, many of the most successful people go through a ritual where they check in with themselves to see all the things they have accomplished the past year and which goals they did and did not accomplish. They also set their intentions and goals for the coming year.
Some have elaborate rituals where they collect evidence of everything they’ve done and use whiteboards to divide their lives into categories like fitness/health, romance, wealth etc and set at least one goal in each while determining if they’ve focused too much on one.
Other people simply mark things off on a todo-list or journal.
I am still figuring out my own ritual. So I am curious if some of you would share yours here. How do you close off the year and clear your mind for the next? How do you keep track of your accomplishments and growth? What is your ritual?
If I do manage to find something which harmonizes with me, I might share my actual goals here as well.
So far, one thing I have noticed is that even though I really really want to focus on wealth as the year starts, my most important goal for the coming year (at least the start) is fitness and health. Not the “good intentions” idea of using the energy to exercise more, but actually going the full Paragon/Emperor Fitness route, which is something I didn’t think I would be doing.
I have also noticed that I’ve accomplished a few things which have been on my someday/maybe list for years now. Maybe the subs finally made the stars align?
I would really personally appreciate some input from the users. I think with enough response we can all walk away with something useful and this can be a valuable thread. We might even revisit in 3 or 6 months.
So, any volunteers?
