Self Assessment

At the start of a New Year, many people make resolutions, goals that represent some aspect of themselves they think should be different or improved. But in order to bring about the results you seek in your life, the initial and most important work is on envisioning what you want (often a very challenging task) and then identifying and closing the gap between who you are now and who you need to become in order to achieve that result.

As the year comes to a close, now is the perfect time to assess where you are and how far you've come. Year-end is a wonderful time to take a wider view of your life to see if you are progressing the way you want: learning, growing, evolving, and enjoying. Are you meeting the goals you intended this year? Where are you today as compared to last year at this time? Are you focusing your energies on the right things, the things that matter the most in your life?

Has the anxiety over your holiday plans started yet? Have you got a knot in your stomach at the thought of your mother-in-law's cooking? Do you feel the pain in your pocket at the thought of all of the money you'll be spending?
