I have a confession to make. I have not made my 2018 plan. I know it's terrible, but I'm sharing with you all because I have small hunch that I may not be alone. It's January 29th and here I stand with a barely started vision board and some notebooks with some scribbled ideas and a lot of ideas, dreams, goals and wishes in my head.
I think the reason I had such a hard time planning is because I had to be very clear on what I want to do which all aspects of my life, relationships, personal development and businesses.
They key to the best planning is reflecting on your current state and progress so you can reassesand make realistic gols that align with your true purpose. So if you are still trying to plan your 2018, I want to share with you a list questions I'm using to get clear on my wants and my goals.
