Lets start with some self reflection. Given you are here reading this, I am guessing you have been doing some of this a lot recently.

Section 1: Where Am I Now?

It is important to be honest with yourself here and do not try to rush this part. People completing this can do so in haste and think this is the easy bit. Try not to be vague; write some specific details about your current habits, routines, people and any wins or loses than come to mind. Ultimately this can be as short or as long as you want it to be, but try to spend time focused on this and split it into two sections.

1. What is currently working in my life?
2. What isn’t working and how do I know? (cues can come from behaviours, feelings, recent outcomes and/or feedback)

Section 2: Focus now on clarity and direction

3. What does “growth” look like for me in the next 6 – 12 months?

This can be a short statement about your vision for yourself; reminder that honesty is key here, do not just fill a few paragraphs with buzzwords. This does not have to be exclusive to your career or your private life.

4. What areas do I want to focus on first?

here, you can start to refine your thoughts and set your own priorities now you have some clarity over what you have defined as important to yourself. Do not use the below list as exhaustive, it has to be personal to you.

• Career Progress
• Relationships
• Wellness
• Overall energy
• Mindset & Confidence
• Diet and Exercise
• Other

Section 3: Goal Setting

Depending on how deep you want to get, goal setting can be an art and debate in and of itself. For this exercise, follow the SMART system. Go one at a time.

Specific | Measurable | Actionable | Relevant | Time-bound

Goal Name:

What does success look like?

Why is this important to me right now?

How will I measure my progress against this goal?

When will I check in on myself?

Section 4: Blockers! What is in my way?

There is strong academic research that shows writing your obstacles down makes your plan more resilient.

Identify your main mental roadblocks or patterns that you are noticing

Do you recognise any external friction or any practical constraints preventing you from achieving?

How can I now manage or plan around these?
