How Will I Apply My Most Valuable Lessons From Last Year?

This is the fifth post in a continuing series designed to help you create a great 2008 - using questions to reflect on last year, and project into the future. All of the questions and additional information can be found in this tool, available for you to download now.

The fifth question is:

How will I apply my most valuable lessons of last year in the New Year?

To answer this question, you must know your most valuable lessons from last year.

Duh.

The best (and perhaps only if you haven't already thought about it) way to answer this question is by doing the reflecting questions earlier in this series. If you missed them, click the links in the paragraph above. :)

For me the way I will apply my biggest lessons will be to make decisions consistent with those lessons. For me this includes, asking for help, deciding on what is most important, planning my time more effectively and being more focused. My biggest lessons from last year require me to make different choices.

On most counts (though not all) I am doing much better than I had in the past. This shouldn't be a surprise - success is, after all a journey.

While it is a journey, it does begin with decisions - decisions that play a big role applying my lessons from last year.

As with all of these questions, I welcome your comments and answers.
