When do you start setting goals for the upcoming year? Do you wait until the new year or start ahead of time. I try to use the holiday time to reflect.

I use the break to reflect on the current year and how I acted on my past goals and set new ones.

Me too

I used the break as well

Nice

I’ve also been using the time off for this. Spending some time just thinking and then sometime this week I’d love to get my goals and resolutions on paper, with some clear steps to take to get me started on a lot of them. Think it is also important to check in a lot throughout the year.

Getting them on paper is so important

At the beginning of Q4 I start formulating my goals and then by the time it ends I have concise goals with a plan on how to achieve what I want to achieve.

Good approach
