Happy 2009!  Here’s the fourth question I’m asking myself as I reflect on 2008 and prepare for a great 2009:

Year End Question #4
What do I want to do ‘more of’ in 2009?

As I reflect back on my good, my bad and my contribution in 2008 I find myself asking: what do I want to do more of in 2009?  (Note: I can only ask this question after I’ve answered the ‘less of’ question from two days ago).

In years past, this question has led to greater focus as I’ve decided to do ‘more’ delegation or spend ‘more’ time with my message research team or to take ‘more’ time off than I did in the previous year.

As a wrap up to this mini-series of posts, here’s all four year-end questions:

– What was my best day at work in 2008?

– What was my worst day at work in 2008?

– What do I want to do ‘less of’ in 2009?

– What do I want to do ‘more of’ in 2009?

I hope you’ve found this helpful – decide now to make 2009 greater than 2008!
