Do you have a process for reflecting on the year that was - and for setting yourself up for an amazing year to come?

Joining me today is successful ABC broadcaster and host of Radio National’s ‘This Working Life’, Lisa Leong.

I sat down with Lisa for a chat about her annual tradition of reflecting on the year and setting goals for 2025.

Many of us do this, but how many of us are happy with the result? This episode covers a range of strategies you can use to reflect and set goals for a more successful 2025.

Lisa shares:

-          📓 Some unique strategies for using a diary to reflect on the past year

-          🔮 Why you should do a "pre-mortem" for the incoming year if you want to succeed

-          ✂️ The importance of reflecting on what to remove from your life each year instead of what to add

-          🎯 What you should be doing instead of a traditional New Year’s resolution

Key Quotes:

“For me, discipline is freeing. I see a lot of freedom in discipline.”

“Don't worry too much about ‘how is that going to happen’, but just have the vision there - and the magic happens.”

Quick Win: Kayla Itsines's simple hack to stay mentally strong

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/fa326977-3de5-4283-9b8b-af3500c58607/clips/18a31ba8-9c0f-43f3-9698-b1c7003b0f71/transcript

Most of us worry about what others think of us at some point. But have you ever considered how that might negatively impact your ability to achieve your goals?

Shelley Johnson is a renowned leadership coach, columnist for The Age and Sydney Morning Herald and the host of top-ranking podcast This Is Work.

I sat down with Shelley for a chat around how we let people’s perceptions of us dictate our actions, and in some worst-case scenarios, stifle our growth.



In this episode, Shelley and I share:

-         The damage that can be done to your development by fearing what other people think

-         Strategies you can use to overcome the fear of other’s judgment

-         What you should be doing instead of oversharing at work if you want to have a positive impact.

-         Why "bringing your whole self to work" might not be the best idea and what you should do instead

-         Some techniques for handling stress and stopping it from overflowing at work



Key Quotes:

“Oversharing doesn't build trust, it actually undermines trust."

“Bring your whole self to work is different to bring your best self to work."

“Every time you get feedback you have a choice. Is this someone A) that I value their opinion. Is this B) useful and C) what do I then do with it?"
