Listen on

Episode notes

As we approach the end of the year, it’s the perfect time to pause, reflect, and prepare for what’s ahead. In this episode of the PivotMe Podcast, April provides listeners with 10 transformative questions designed to help you process the lessons of 2024 and set a clear, intentional path for 2025. These questions go beyond traditional goal-setting—they’re a blueprint for self-awareness, growth, and purposeful action.

Whether you’ve had an amazing year, a challenging one, or a mix of both, these questions are your ticket to making 2025 extraordinary.

Key Takeaways:

  1. Celebrate Wins:

    • "What was your biggest win of 2024?" Identifying wins helps anchor you in progress and builds momentum for the new year.

  2. Recognize Influences:

    • "Who were the three people that impacted you the most this year?" Reflecting on these relationships brings gratitude and awareness.

  3. Track Relationship Growth:

    • Consider which relationships improved the most this year. Growth in personal connections often reflects growth in ourselves.

  4. Learn From Challenges:

    • "What was your biggest learning in 2024?" Extract the lessons from tough moments—they’re your stepping stones to future success.

  5. Identify Unfinished Business:

    • What goals or projects didn’t come to fruition? Acknowledge them and create a plan to address them in the new year.

  6. Break Bad Habits:

    • Pinpoint one habit you picked up this year that doesn’t serve you and commit to leaving it behind.

  7. Forgive Yourself:

    • "What do you need to forgive yourself for in 2024?" Letting go of guilt or regret is key to moving forward with freedom and clarity.

  8. Seek Future Wisdom:

    • Imagine yourself at 80, looking back on today—what advice would your wiser self give you?

  9. Focus on the One Thing:

    • Identify the single most important thing to achieve in 2025. Clarity brings focus, and focus brings results.

  10. Take Immediate Action:

    • Determine what specific steps you’ll take on January 1 to ensure success. Education without execution is just distraction.

Actionable Items:

  • Write down your answers to all 10 questions.
  • Reach out to one of the three people who impacted you the most and thank them.
  • Identify a single bad habit to leave behind in 2024 and create a plan to replace it with a better habit.
  • Share your 2025 goal with two people for accountability.
  • Take your first step on January 1—no matter how small.

Quotes:

  • “You have 365 lessons baked into 2024—you can’t just forget them. If you do, you’re bound to relive them.”
  • “New level, new devil. Each year brings new challenges, but also new tools to overcome them.”
  • “Education without execution is distraction.”

Reflection is one of the most powerful tools for growth, and these 10 questions offer a framework for learning from the past and creating a clear vision for the future. By identifying your wins, learning from challenges, and taking intentional action, you can set yourself up for an extraordinary 2025.

Take the time to write down your answers and revisit them throughout the year. When you prioritize personal growth, you not only transform your life but also positively impact your business, relationships, and health.
