As a child growing up in a small village in the West of Scotland I remember the celebration of New Year going on for a week at the very least. Starting to think about what you might want to achieve in the following year often didn’t get any energy or attention until at least the second week of January. Given the date it is time to get on with it then!

In order to create what you want this year in your career I’d like to ask just one question.

If you could achieve just one thing this year in your career what would it be?

Get clear about that and then take 5 minutes of really focused action on your goal at least four times a week and you’ll get a great result.

Have your best year yet in 2012. Best wishes from Hilary
