Countless “thoughtful thinkers” know the importance of asking the right questions.

What I would like to do is get you to finish a few sentences that are posed as questions but could end up becoming powerful personal statements.
Here are a few insightful starter statements that you can complete as we approach the last month of the year:
- The main reason I am where I am in my career/business right now is that I chose to…
- The key areas of my career/business where I seem to be succeeding are…
- The main areas in my career/business where I seem to be stalling are…
- If I’m totally honest, what’s held me back from being my best is…
- The thing I’m most proud of at this moment in my career/business is…
- What I want to achieve more than anything else in my career/business is…
- If I continue what I’m doing, five years from now I’ll feel…
- I will personally commit to accomplishing (the following…) before the end of this year.
This is not an exhaustive list of starter statements but I’m sure they are enough to get your energy moving in the right direction.
