Get ready for the new year with this
to-do list built to help you make your life more productive and positive.
1. Set
goals. Take a good look at what you want
in life. Have you committed to these goals by purposefully taking steps toward
reaching them?
2. Get a mentor.
Seek out people with knowledge you desire. Ask about mentorship possibilities.
3. Read. Create a personal reading program by determining how many
books of different kinds (personal development,
business, nonfiction) you’ll read this year. Don’t skip literary fiction; a
recent study shows it improves social skills!
4. Improve
productivity. Log your
activities for a week to assess time-wasters. Make sure you aren’t spending
chunks of the day on activities that don’t drive
your business forward or improve your life.
5. Wake up early. Get
up before your household to contemplate what you want to accomplish—then seize
the day!
6. Get
an accountability partner.
Check in regularly to review accomplishments, areas for improvement and next
steps.
7. Do something you’ve always wanted. Life’s short; don’t wait to get started on that bucket
list.
8. Take
small steps. Whatever
it is you seek, just get started. Commit to some easy, feasible activity to
move you closer to those goals every day.
9. Journal.Whether
it’s ideas, problems you want to solve or inspiring quotes, write it down!
10. Practice
mindfulness. Improve
your effectiveness, well-being and longevity, research shows, by learning how
to stop needless ruminating in order to focus on the here and now.
11. Expand your capabilities. Learn a language, take a public speaking course, take up
chess or skydiving or rock climbing.
12. Seek wonder. Ditch the been-there-done-that mindset. Instead, see the world through a child’s eyes; experience
awe.
