Thanks so much for the Annual Business Reflection podcast and worksheet. I have four major goals for 2018 which nicely fall into sprints. But first, I am going to take a week setting up my weekly blocks, and mapping out the month of January. In building a business it is easy (especially as my business is in its infancy) to jump when a client calls or has needs rather than focusing on whether responding is 1) really helping the client, and 2) building practices that will grow my business over time.
Here’s to a great 2018!
This is great! Going to use this with my team!
