As we wrap up 2019 and move toward 2020, it’s time to reflect and consider what we would like     to accomplish in the new year. As I think over the past year here are some questions I am asking myself-

• Who am I? And what do I want people to know about me? We all have a story to share, and when we share it, we can connect with other people in new ways. What is the story I want to share in 2020?
• How will I share my story? Will I invest more time face to face with the people I most want to connect with? Will I do a better job connecting by phone with those who may not live close by? Do I use social media to share my story?
• What have I done well in the past year? Where have I seen growth and positive change?
• What have I struggled with? Where are the big opportunities for change in my life? What or who have I been avoiding?
• Where did 2019 go? How have I been spending my time in productive ways? And maybe some ways that are less productive? Does my time reflect my priorities?
• Do I have healthy margin in my life? Unplanned time to just “be”?
• A year from now what changes do I want to see in my life? What steps do I take to get there?

There is so much to think about and consider, don’t you think? I find myself clearly seeing a need to take a step back and carve out some open time just to think, and perhaps journal some of my thoughts.

I think that is for me probably the biggest change I need to make in the new year- taking time to work on me, rather than being so busy all the time.

What about you?
