The Last Quarter of 2020: Review and Reset

September 20, 2020

Review and Reset What’s Most Important

It’s hard to believe this crazy, his­toric year is almost over. An incred­i­ble amount has changed around us – and per­haps so have some of your priorities.

After the ini­tial shock of COVID-19, most com­pa­nies found a way to nav­i­gate and to func­tion as they had in the past. Oth­ers (like those in the tourism sec­tor) have been dra­mat­i­cal­ly impact­ed and have had a much hard­er time.

No mat­ter what’s going on, take the oppor­tu­ni­ty to set aside time to reflect on what’s most impor­tant to you, what’s hap­pened so far this year; and to reset and plan. Make your 4th quar­ter bet­ter than the last, using our Quar­ter­ly Reset tem­plate to review this quar­ter and plan the next Quar­ter. It takes less than an hour. Some peo­ple find this a great activ­i­ty to do on their own, some with their spouse, part­ner or fam­i­ly; and oth­ers with a coach or mentor.

And if you find peo­ple are reluc­tant to plan for the next quar­ter because things in their world are still up in the air, goals can still be set for the day, the week or the month.

No mat­ter what your expe­ri­ence, the key is to have a plan and be ready to adapt, as needed.

The Chal­lenge

  • Block 54 min­utes get your Quar­ter­ly Reset done in what­ev­er way suits you.
  • Build your plan for the last 90 days of the year.

And, if you don’t have your full Mas­ter Plan for your Work, Self and Life, you can find the tem­plate here.
