Time for a Personal Review of Your Performance

“Plans are noth­ing; plan­ning is every­thing” — Dwight D. Eisenhower

Con­grat­u­la­tions! You made it through the 1^st quar­ter of 2018 – and, if your expe­ri­ence is any­thing like mine, it went by in a flash.

Hope­ful­ly you are hav­ing a spec­tac­u­lar year, so far, and have achieved every­thing you want­ed to – at work, in your life, and for yourself.

Per­son­al Review

One of the most pow­er­ful habits of the most suc­cess­ful lead­ers I work with, is their abil­i­ty to look into the mir­ror, to self-reflect, and to fig­ure out how to ensure they become an even bet­ter ver­sion of them­selves – tomor­row, next week, next month and next year.

The end of the Quar­ter is the per­fect time to prac­tice this habit.

In my new book Your Oxy­gen Mask First — Chap­ter 17 Plan, Plan and Plan Again — are two main tools:

1. The Mas­ter Plan (which is the reflec­tion and reset­ting of your goals on an annu­al basis) and
2. The Quar­ter­ly Reset (which enables you to do the same every 90 days.)

For a quick refresh­er of the work­sheet ter­mi­nol­o­gy please check out this Mas­ter Plan post.
