326 December 31st Isn't the Report Card for Your Entire Year
When did we all collectively decide that December 31st gets to define whether we succeeded or failed this year? December 31st is just a day. It's not a final exam, it's not a measure of your worth, and it definitely doesn't get to be the weapon that determines if you had a good year or not.
Right now, your inbox and social feeds are probably flooding with "finish strong" messaging. And if you're like most women I work with, you're looking at your goals, trying to enjoy the holidays, and feeling behind. But what if the problem isn't you? In this episode, I'm breaking down exactly what's happening with this toxic messaging and what you can do instead to actually feel good about your year.
In This Episode, I'll Cover:
- Why December 31st isn't actually a report card for your year
- The problem with "finish strong" messaging and why I refuse to participate
- What steady state planning is and how it's different from sprinting to deadlines
- Why moving a goal date doesn't make you a failure
- How to look at your year without tying everything to one arbitrary date
