Use Reflective Writing to Distill the Lessons of the Past Year
Year-end is an ideal time to reflect on what we have learned and achieved during the past year. In addition to your quantitative review of profits, conversions, and sales trends, take time to reflect on your professional and personal life.
Consider where your business has been and your vision for the new year. Writing reflectively – a form of journaling – enables you to pause, ponder, and process the work of the past year as part of your year-end review. Reflective writing involves critically analyzing or exploring an experience you’ve had, noting how it affected you, and what you plan to do with your new knowledge.
