“October is a fallen leaf, but it is also the wider horizon more clearly seen. It is the distant hill once more in sight, and the enduring constellations above that hill once again.” — Hal Borland
Whilst everyone is getting excited about the arrival of Autumn 🍂 Bonfire Night 🔥 or Diwali 🪔, our team are all thinking of... New Year Resolutions.*
Yes, we step into January mode in October! 📆
Being a proactive entrepreneur means always being ahead of the game! So, I ensure that the team and I are mentally preparing ourselves for starting quarter one of 2024 with a bang!
We make it a priority to meet up, putting aside the thoughts of fireworks season and completing processes in time for Christmas, and we put together a formal plan for what we’d like to achieve in 2024.
⭐️ Sales targets
⭐️ Growth of the business
⭐️ Personal goals and how our careers can support those
❓Are we putting the client and their needs first in the process?
❓Are we making time for our health?
❓Are we consistently working towards personal development to bring the best version of ourselves each day?
❓Are we still at the top of our game in our market? Are we making the time to stay up to date on our local market trends?
All of these elements are crucial to me. We pride ourselves on being ahead of the game, attentive and able to deliver results.
But it's also paramount to me that as a team, we are there for each other, supporting each other's personal goals too. That late-October get-together is crucial for the success to come in 2024.
When do you plan for the year ahead? Let me know if you have just begun your planning too.
All the best,
*Disclaimer: yes, we are still excited about all of these events too! 🎇
