The Importance of Reflection

November 23, 2021

We recent­ly lost a good friend – a young guy who was a mem­ber at our race­track. I just loved the guy — one of the hap­pi­est peo­ple you’d ever meet.

These big events — the birth of a new child in the fam­i­ly, a mar­riage, a loss or tragedy — cause us to stop and reflect and, per­haps, reset and make changes that bet­ter serve our Work, Self and Life.

Some­times we reflect by talk­ing to fam­i­ly dur­ing din­ner, when catch­ing up with friends, meet­ing with our finan­cial plan­ner, or the doc­tor for a checkup.

I reflect almost dai­ly when I write.

I don’t think you can under­es­ti­mate the impor­tance of reflec­tion. So, maybe we need to reflect and reset on a reg­u­lar basis as a dis­ci­pline — such as on a quar­ter­ly basis, when we review how we’re doing in our world.

The Chal­lenge

  • What are your mech­a­nisms to reflect and reset your plans?
  • If you haven’t done a quar­ter­ly reset for your goals, here’s a tool to help you through the process.
  • How can you make the next week, month, quar­ter year bet­ter, more ful­fill­ing and more rewarding?

Hear more about the impor­tance of reg­u­lar reflec­tion and reset in this episode of The Growth Whis­per­ers podcast.
