With this year ending in a new year beginning, we should be starting to think about planning for the upcoming year. What are some of your tools you use for planning for the year to come and also daily planning. Do you have any cool tricks that you use to help you in setting goals, and breaking down, goals into smaller action items, and taking those action items and making them happen. Please share your tips, tricks and or traps things that have worked and have not worked.
I used to get crazy with this stuff every year, but when I looked back, only really got a few things done each year.
Now I only set 1-2 personal & 1-2 business goals and dedicate the year to working on them.
I think we tend to make lists and lists of stuff to do in order to feel busy, but being able to focus on 1-2 things is harder enough besides all of the other stuff we have to take care of.

We finally started Jobber and got our system working great over the past few months. Now we are putting more of our focus on marketing. Learning to reflect and see where your holes are in business is so important, and humbling. As we all plan to grow and scale our business just remember, it's easier to fix holes in a smaller business than it is in a large business. Vision and goals are so important. As they say, "if you aim at nothing, you'll hit it every time". Not the greatest strategy if you plan on going anywhere. Lol
We just started jobber a couple months ago and love it so much for our business. It has really been helpful keeping things organized. Which is something we are always trying to do just about everywhere in our lives. This wasn't the greatest of years, so we are looking forward to 2025 being a better one. We want to come into the year with some goals in mind and how we are going to accomplish them. I do feel like we make lists of things to do and never actually get to the list. Life gets in the way and then those things just get tossed aside. I think the biggest thing when trying to achieve a goal is having a positive outlook. If you give positive vibes to the world the world will return them to you. Setting yourself up for success is the easiest thing to do to accomplish goals. Good luck this year everyone! 2025 will be your year, I know it will be ours!
