Anti-Goals : 7 Mistakes to Avoid in New Year:

Looking forward to the New Year, the year end reflections -Past Year Review (PYR) - are  much better than New year resolutions merely because its more personal and actionable! 

@AdiVerma has written a fantastic post in Twitter  on his 2022 reflections:

Here is my summary of it: 

• Mistake 1: Try to do too much – Quantity over Quality
• Lesson : Do Less , Do better

• Mistake 2 : Focus on repetition , and not iteration – not following on feedback
• Lesson : Iterate more through- Listening, Reflecting and Correcting
•  Mistake 3 : Jumping around a lot- Shifting projects / investments midway!
• Lesson : Shut up and Be Patient! (@MorganHousel – The Psychology of Money)
•  Mistake 4 : Procrastinating – not converting the ‘spark’ quick enough – that they got doused by Time
• Lesson : Increase speed!
•  Mistake 5 : Comparing myself to others!
• Lesson : Rather learn from others who are better than me! – How do they do create this magic?
•  Mistake 6 : Avoid Failure – to avoid looking stupid!
• Lesson  : Messy action is better than none!
•  Mistake 7 : Focusing too much on outcomes – Success, rewards and other tangibles!
• Lesson : Focus on the outputs (Iterate) that you produce – Outcomes shall follow if you do it right!

What are your PYRs?
