Now that Christmas is over, most of us start looking to the new year. Let me share a really simple planning tool that I use with some of my clients to help them think through what their next year will look like:

In one year |
By the end of Q1 |
| Finance | ||
| Faith | ||
| Fitness | ||
| Friends | ||
| Family | ||
| Business |
Spare me the emails, I know business doesn`t start with an `F`, but stay with me here.
These are the key drivers for most of us; the areas of life that we most care about at the end of the day.
Spend an hour alone with this chart. Give each area a rating out of 10. Choose where you want to improve. Talk it over with your spouse or significant other. Decide on one initiative you`d like to see accomplished in any relevant area(s) in 2015.
Once you`re done, put it where you can look at it daily to help to keep your eye on the ball. Good luck and good planning!
