December 2019
We’ve reached the spot on the calendar where you start to reflect on your year, trying to figure out if it was successful. Usually when doing so, we default to the common—and often numerical—definitions of success, but there is more to "success" than the balance of a bank account, a letter grade, square footage of a house or numbers on a spreadsheet.
What about all the other “stuff” you did this year?
Did you try something new and scary, like taking a leap and starting a new business? Did you demonstrate self-discipline and pay off a debt or crush that fitness goal that seemed out of reach? Did you decide to
live life, instead of just
managing it, by buying that second home or deciding retirement might finally be calling?
Reflecting on
why those milestones feel so good to you can help you define what success looks like for
you.
