An unexamined life is not worth living.
Socrates. This year, like the trend of economic growth, the mentality has become slower, and I have begun to like to listen to some soothing, melodious tunes, not so rock and punk. So this year, I was fascinated by Ren Suxi, and heard "Big Dream" from "Years Sui" and "Wang Zhaojun" in "Hometown, Don't Come to Harm" starring her.
After listening to "Big Dream", I feel that my review is also like a big dream.
In the past, there was always a summary at the end of the year, and then I looked forward to next year, the whole plan.
I have also used the Nine Fields of Life and the Flower of Life before, but without exception, the summary is still shriveled and not so rounded, and the plan is a grand mirage, which completely collapses when it is reviewed.
So this year, I plan to seek change, do a review, take stock of what I really did, what I did right, and what important things didn't accomplish for what reason
In fact, the real effect of the review is to avoid repeating the mistakes made in the past, or some unfulfilled goals.
So how do you do a good annual review?
After studying the seven-day review course, I learned that a good annual review looks like this:
The first is to review the goal, because all the review revolves around the goal.
What was the goal you set at the beginning of the year, was it clear or broadly general?
Many people find themselves at this time when they don't have any goals, or they are vague.
For example, at the beginning of 2023, I set goals to improve my writing and reading skills, as well as fitness, but now when I look at the original goals, I find that these goals are very general, and there are no clear, specific, and measurable goals.
So, for my 2023, the improvement in writing ability should be zero so far.
The number of reading should be more than 12 million words, but only five paper books have been read.
The rest of the books are read on WeChat, There are other apps to read, miscellaneous, by the way, or soap bubbles** mostly.
Fitness is even more pitiful, except for the three months of aerobics at the beginning of the year, that is, less than five times of swimming in the middle of the year, plus two months of morning walks with my mother at the end of the year.
As a direct result, the body weight is 2 kg overweight compared to the same period last year.
So, after thinking about it for a long time, I found outWhen setting annual goals, be specific, measurable, challenging but achievable, controllable, and of course, most importantly, time-bound.
Otherwise, the annual goals I set will slowly fade with the passage of time, just like the goals I set in 2023.
What's next?Will you be able to achieve your goals?
Definitely,The target must also be undisturbed by the outside world.
Many times, our goals are always halfway, and the reason is that most of them are that we are not sure enough to stick to them when we are disturbed by the outside world.
For example, many Friday and Saturday nights are reserved for self-study, but these times also happen to be a good time to party, so when a friend invites you to turn down, you can't refuse and give your limited study time to Huanju, then the goals you set will inevitably be affected.
Therefore, in the process of achieving the goal, we must constantly clear the external interference and grasp the rhythm by ourselves.
The second is the evaluation result, and the result that is not evaluated is not a good result.
After we review our goals, we evaluate our results against each goal.
First of all, we must make sure that our goals are correct, because some goals can be discarded when we look at them at the end of the year.
Just like the time I decided to accompany my children at the beginning of the year, I found that simple companionship does not do us any good, but rather mutual companionship can warm up the parent-child relationship.
For example, when I aimed to read at the beginning of the year, I probably felt that I should read 50 paper books, and although the number of words read reached 2 million in the end, I only read five paper books, so I still didn't achieve my goal.
Because many of them are**, this year, because of the holiday with the children chasing the drama "Sauvignon Blanc", all of Tonghua's ** have been passed again, and the number of reading and reading words has gone up, but the actual effect on personal growth is still minimal.
The third is to analyze the reasons and find the good and poor places for analysis.
What is the good part, and what are the subjective and objective reasons?What really plays a key role?
What are the areas that are not doing well, what are the reasons for the shortcomings, and what are the main root causes from a personal perspective and other perspectives?
Just like I traveled twice this year, once at the beginning of the year and once on National Day, I reached the travel plan I made at the beginning of the year, but now I analyze, in fact, I can travel again during the holiday, because I don't insist on it and my children are unwilling to go out because the weather is too hot, resulting in a great opportunity to waste the holiday.
The reason for analysis is one of the most important aspects of the review, which plays a supporting role in our overall review, and also directly affects how much we learn and what we gain from it.
Fourth, summing up experience will help to better set targets for the next year.
We are for ourselvesOutput reproducible casesWhat are the good goals to be completed this year, and if you want to stick to it next year, you must better play its role.
Measures for improvementSome, like my goal of waking up early this year was almost nullified during the summer vacation, and I relaxed my requirements for myself.
What measures need to be implemented,Daily, weekly, and monthly reviews are quite important when doing annual reviews, and if these have been accumulated before, the annual review will be easy to make.
And because I was missing these, when I was doing the annual review, fortunately there was still a daily planner available, otherwise a lot of things worth remembering would have been thrown out of the clouds.
What measures should be continued, what actions should be stopped, and what mistakes should be avoided again?
You need to find a quiet time period and think deeply about these things before you can really figure it out.
Fifth, we should put the lessons learned into action, and only by putting the lessons learned into practice, translating them into future actions, and improving them, can we count as a complete review.
Otherwise, what to do is a review show for others to see.
Therefore, when reviewing, it is necessary to make a learning transformation and follow-up application plan, although these seem tedious to think about, but when you really work hard, you will be pleasantly surprised by growth and change.
When considering follow-up, consider these three aspects together.
Based on the lessons learned from the review,What can be started.
Start learning time management and make good use of your time outside of 8 hours.
Start a real workout and run at least twice a week to boost your energy.
What to continue to do?
Find areas that have been good this year, such as waking up early, so that success can be repeated or strengthened.
What to stop doing?
Just like because the party affects the study on Saturday and Sunday, next year will be a moderate consideration of rejecting most of the party.
Stop brainless shopping, and give priority to the books you bought back that you haven't read before you buy new books.
To sum up, if you want to do a good annual review, you need to go through the above five steps.
1.Review the goal.
2.Evaluate the results.
3.Analyze the causes.
4.Experience.
5.Put it into action.
It is easier said than done", mastering the above methods, the most important thing is to use the remaining days in 2023 to practice and strive for landing.
