Listen "046: Year-End Planning"
Episode Synopsis
As this episode is being originally released, it’s less than two weeks before Christmas 2023. In another four days, my husband, Arturo, will be off from work in his corporate job for the rest of the year. Yay for holiday vacations! And all over the world right now, people are making plans for the holidays and thinking about their New Year’s resolutions. Because being less than two weeks from Christmas means we’re also less than three weeks from the new year. What are you going to do in your creative work next year? What New Years resolutions do you have around your artistic business? What are you going to do to make your coming year one of creative joy and excitement? Let’s discuss.
In this episode, you will learn:
Why knowing your personal definition of success is a vital part of crafting a plan for your business in 2024.
What three questions to ask yourself as you review 2023 so that you can move in a positive direction of change for 2024.
Why paying attention to how you receive personal, creative, and financial fulfillment from your creative work will help you plan an effective strategy for the coming year.
How to use SMART goals to craft goals that you will actually achieve.
What one exercise you can use to figure out the business strategy that is right for you.
How your community of creative friends, colleagues, and mentors can help you achieve your goals.
