Embracing the transition from one year to the next fills me with a sense of joy and anticipation. For me, it offers a golden opportunity for introspection. While I recognize that time is ever-flowing and a mere calendar shift doesn't encapsulate our essence, it serves as a valuable juncture to delve deep and reflect.

It gives us a moment to discern what brought us fulfillment, what left us wanting, and be really thoughtful about what we want in the next year of our lives. 

This year, I spent a lot of time crafting a personalized reflection and goal-setting template, experimenting with various iterations until I discovered the process, outline, and structure that resonated most with my journey. 

While sharing my process, a number of you expressed your desire to use the same document, so I am extending an open invitation for you to use this same framework.

Here you’ll find the blank template. You can use it as it stands or make it your own.

Here you’ll find my filled-out version of the template. My 2023 reflections, alongside my aspiration for the year to come.

I know my journey is different from yours, and that’s a beautiful thing. But if I can provide one ounce of inspiration as you look forward to your upcoming year, then my work here is done.

Here’s to success in 2024, whatever that looks like for you.

Cheers! 

Samantha
