We all seek a balance between growth and sustainable effort.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">It\u2019s not helpful to overcommit, then under perform, and feel like a failure\u2026then repeat that each year. Ouch. It\u2019s a familiar cycle for so many people but a repetition that diminishes self confidence and halts long term progress. We don\u2019t want to burn out, nor do we want to stagnate. A re-considered approach can be the difference between more set backs and the breakthroughs you know are possible.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">\u00a0By being intentional in balancing reflection and well paced intervals of action and rest, we can do this!<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">\u00a0Here is how I like to approach this with myself and my clients:<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>#1 Celebrate the last year\u2019s growth<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nBegin by reflecting on the past year. Write out a list of accomplishments, breakthroughs, and shifts. It&#8217;s always amazing how much can transform in a year!<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>#2 Connect to God\u2019s plan for the upcoming year as you journal<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Take time to\u00a0 journal about what God is putting on your heart for the next year: a mix of hopes, travels, projects, and areas of desired growth and transformation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>#3 Revisit your notes weekly to refine them<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"\">This allows you to let things settle and see what holds weight over time. I suggest taking a month to do this; using each week as an opportunity to clarify what is in your heart for the year.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>#4 Organize it all into categories and pick the top goals to focus on (3-5 goals you are going all in on)<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Now is the time to organize the ideas into categories (health, relationships, home, spiritual, intellectual\/education, etc). You can choose your top 3-5 to focus on (allowing the rest to be present but secondary).<br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>\u00a0#5\u00a0 Look at your daily\/weekly\/monthly routines to see how you need to live differently, add or subtract, bring in outside support\/collaboration, etc to LIVE those changes and priorities.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Allow several weeks to\u00a0 experiment, refine, and clarify what is doable and in what time frames. Understand what you can do alone and where you need to enlist assistance to get results.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Growth and transformation are some of the best parts of life. But, taking our heart\u2019s budding dreams from ideation to reality can feel frustrating. Working your way through a system like this can make all the difference.\u00a0 I hope this serves you as an inspiration for whenever you are moved to do your annual vision refresh.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Cheering you on!<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Rachel<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">ps.
