_As we wrap up another year, I’m compelled to look at several areas that I want to be sure I have battened down before the clock strikes twelve on midnight.

Where am I with my marketing projects and promotions?  What have I started that I can finish by 12/31?  What promos and offers can I get out there over the holiday season?

What about people?  Who do I want to connect with before the new year?  Who have I neglected to enter into my database?  Who have I been hoping to JV with this past year?  I still have time to make it happen!

Of course there are always problems that creep up through the weeks and months.  What do I want to be sure to resolve before I head into another year?  Are there situations that will continue to be problems in 2012 if I just leave them unattended?  It’s time for resolution!

And what about my potential?  It’s too easy for me to let things go because its the holidays.  What did I want to tap within myself this year that kept getting put on the shelf?  Can I make a big push and get it done before the new year begins?

And lastly, what are my plans and projections?   Am I starting the year with the end of 2012  in mind?  What are my plans for the next 90 days from January to March?  What do I want to accomplish by mid-year and how do I want the year to end?

Taking time to ask myself these crucial questions will help me with direction in the everyday and vision for the future.

The end of 2011 is just a couple of weeks away.  How will I wrap up the year?  How will you?  Let’s make the BIG PUSH and finish well.
