Mid-year check-in

Excerpt from The Friday Chaser

Let’s be real, January you had some big plans for 2025.

But here we are nearly half way through the year — you’ve hit some unexpected challenges, you found some new opportunities, and technology has already changed about a hundred times.

That’s why a mid-year check-in matters.

If you don’t pause to reflect, you run the risk of running full speed in the wrong direction. So, now is a great time to take a quick breather and review, reassess, and plan out how you’re going to tackle what’s left of 2025.

Here’s a few of the things I’m asking myself:

  • What worked? Where did I get traction, what things have been selling, what types of projects went right?
  • What flopped? Which ideas turned out to be a dead end? Which project or initiative was a waste of time?
  • Are 2025’s goals still relevant? Do they still spark excitement? Are you on track, off track, or sidetracked?
  • What are the most important things to focus on for the remainder of the year?
  • What would make this year a success?
  • What do I need to support those goals?

Sure, half of the year is gone, but the other half is still yet to be written, and you’ve you the pen.
