If you're like me, you're looking over last year's business and numbers and trying to make sense of it all. Where did you do well, where can you improve, what's next?
Unlike most business owners, I actually take the time to write my business plan annually and often refer to it throughout the year. The plan becomes tactical as I use it to build my business. Sometimes I stay the course, other times I take advantages of opportunities that come my way and something else, that was planned, gets dropped.
But what I enjoy most from checking out what happened over the past year is to see what worked and what didn't work as well as I would have wanted or expected. Intuition and intentions are one thing, hard numbers don't lie.
As 2008 ends, I have many things for which to be thankful. I have a wonderful and loving family, a warm home, great clients and the best friends anyone could ask for. As 2009 is about to enter our lives, I'm looking forward to the possibilities. I have just over 24 hours left to finish my game plan for my business and it will get done (at least for the first quarter!).
Happy new year, everyone! Stay warm and safe - I'm looking forward to working with you in 2009!
