As you look at 2022, let’s all take some time to review this year.
Set aside a few hours and grab a pen and piece of paper(s) or a journal and ask yourself some questions.
The year-end review we talk about in this post is no different than what a company does in a year-end review except that we are doing it ourselves. It’s a self-reflection process that allows us to learn from our achievements and mistakes.
Throughout the entire review, make sure that you are not judging your answers. The purpose of this self-interview is to evaluate how well you’ve done this year. The more transparent and specific your answers are, the more you will benefit from the process.
Here are some of the benefits of a personal year-end review:
Know more about your strength and weakness
Find ways to improve your performance and life
Maintain the balance among different aspects of life
Set better goals for the year to come
Track and celebrate your accomplishments
Ask yourself these questions:
How would you describe this year with a single word?
Take a look back at the goals you set for this year. How well have you accomplished them?
What is your biggest challenge this year? How do you handle it?
What is a good habit that you built this year? How has it influenced your life?
