Personally, as a 'big picture thinker' I could spend all day long planning out my mid to long term goals. This is why I discipline myself by getting it all planned out into annual, quarterly and monthly chunks. Then implement through daily and weekly tasks.

Although I devote a page to each time period (for ease of reading) concenptually think of grouping Annual, Quarterly and Monthly routines together because I believe these are more like goals. With the daily and weekly routines acting more like tasks leading to completing your annual, quarterly or annual goals. In that, if you want to influence the outcome of your monthly, quarterly or annual goals then change your daily or weekly routines.

Annual Routine and Goals

Once a year I encourage you to spend some time reviewing the year that was by:

• Comparing what happened to what you intended
• Celebrating your successes
• Reviewing what didn't happen and decide if these goals are still relevant
• Compare to your 5, 10 and 20 year goals to check you're on track

This Annual review doesn't need to take a huge amount of time. I would recommend applying across the 4 areas of your life:

• health and well being
• work/career or business
• relationships, giving back and community and
• wealth creation

For the purposes of this tutorial we will focus on my own 2 areas health and business of practical examples:

• I wish to return to a 'ideal' weight, which I'm not focused on specifically because if I ended up my ideal shape and was a little heavier due to muscle gain then I feel I have achieved however a weight is easier to document when writing goals and
• transferring one of my businesses from predominantly live events to online events which means I need to learn more about the online world thus I have found WA

Therefore, Annually it is about setting your specific goals for the year ahead based upon your previous year and where you want to be in the future.
