Q1 Reflection Challenge - Let’s Elevate Together!

Michael Creed • April 3, 2024

Today’s Tuesday Mind Vitamin is more of an exercise than a pill to take. You’ll see what I mean in a minute. 😊


As we pivot from Q1 to Q2, I challenge you to join me in a reflective exercise that promises to sharpen your focus and amplify your success.


Here’s what we need to tackle:

  • Victories: Identify your wins in Q1.
  • Stumbles: Recognize where you fell short.
  • Insights: Share key learnings.
  • Next Steps: Propose adjustments for Q2.


As you move through this, it’s OK to identify market-related items, but also be sure to reflect on things that are within your control.



I’d love to see your responses to this. If you’re interested in seeing my answers, just ask. I’ll have them all dialed in by EOD on Friday.


You in?


Be the some! 👊🏼
