Click here for more info. 1 - Reflect Reflecting on 2024 so far… � Key Events: What actually happened in 2023? Take a look through your calendar (and your Weekly Reflection Log, if you have one) and note down the key moments from each month. Work Life Jan Feb Mar Apr � Milestones: What were the 1-3 most significant events or achievements so far in 2024 for you? How did these impact your life? � Challenges: What were the biggest challenges or obstacles you’ve faced in 2024 so far? How did you overcome them, and what did you learn from these experiences? Remember to be kind towards yourself here - it’s totally okay that you might’ve “missed” some goals. The key is to learn from that and enjoy the journey, which is all that matters at the end of the day anyway � � Relationships: Reflect on your relationships in 2024 so far. How have they evolved? Were there new relationships that had a significant impact on you? � Professional Growth: How have you progressed in your career or studies in 2024? What were the key learnings and how have they shaped your future aspirations (if at all)? � Looking Forward: Based on your experiences in the first few months of 2024, what would you like to do differently for the next 3 months? Are there new areas you’d like to explore or changes you want to make? 2 - Align ⛳ The Life Vision and Annual Goals we’re referring to in this section are based on the Annual Planning Workshop I hosted on 6th Jan 2024. If you missed it, this playlist of 3 videos runs through most of it so you can go through it on your own if you like. If you prefer to do stuff like this in a live group, I’m hosting our next Life Vision & Goal-Setting Workshop on Sunday 12th May 2024 for the students in the founding cohort of Productivity Lab. ⭐ Align to your Life Vision If you don’t yet have your “Life Vision” drafted, that’s okay - this playlist (or joining Productivity Lab �) will help you figure that out later. In the meantime, please just give these questions below your best shot. This doc is just a rough first draft after all, purely an experiment, a pencilsketch, no need to overthink it. ❓ Looking Back: How closely have your actions over the past few months aligned with your overarching life vision? Consider areas where you’ve excelled and areas where you might be a little misaligned. � Looking Ahead What specific actions could you take in the next 9 weeks to get more aligned with your life vision? � Align to your Annual Goals � Annual Goal Review: Review each of your annual goals. Which have you made progress on, and which are lagging behind? Do any of them need updating or removing? For each goal that’s still on the list, what 1-3 specific steps could you take to realign, make progress or accelerate your progress in the next 9 weeks? If you don’t yet have your annual goals defined, that’s okay - this playlist (or joining Productivity Lab �) will help you figure that out later. In the meantime, please just take a stab at it: What are 3-5 goals you’d like to achieve by the end of 2024? Goal #1 - Goal #2 Goal #3 Goal #4 - 3 - Plan your Quarterly Quests There are around 9 weeks left in the first half of 2024, and until our next Alignment Workshop (Sunday 30th June), which will be free-for-all As such, I’d recommend spending the rest of this session planning your next 9 weeks, and we’ll get back to a quarterly cadence (12 weeks) for Q3 of 2024. al �Plan ⚙️System ’s the goal you’re aiming for?
