With Halloween behind us and the rest of the holiday season here, it’s time to start planning your creative work for next year. Though it’s been a challenging year in many ways, there’s a lot to be learned that we can carry into next year.
Part of this planning process includes asking some difficult questions associated with both your creative work and your responsibilities as a business owner.
Nathan and Barrett discuss the five questions you should be asking yourself as you plan for 2021, with a few follow-ups included, that will set you on the right path for the next year.
Main Questions
- What am I most proud of from 2020? You don’t have to think about this for too long, but it’s good to recognize and feel proud of things that you’ve accomplished.
- What habits or thought patterns held you back in 2020? Compounding habits can sneak up on you and have detrimental effects that hold you back. Look back, recognize them, and try to change course in 2021.
- What is the biggest obstacle you face right now? What advice would your future self give you to overcome it? It’s a hypothetical, but if you frame the problems as someone else's problem, the future becomes clearer.
- What drove revenue for you in business this year? Take a deep dive into the difference between revenue and income and which products are making you a lot of money. Do a financial audit and break it down into specifics.
- If we were to meet a year from today, with a bottle of champagne, what would we be celebrating? If you put yourself in the mindset of celebration, you can clarify which goals are worth pursuing and the things you’d be excited to celebrate.
