As we close out Q1 2025, it’s time for our “15-Minute Reset” – a quick but powerful process to reflect on our progress and set ourselves up for an even stronger Q2.
Looking Back: The Quick Q1 Review
Take 5 minutes to celebrate what worked. What goals did we hit? What unexpected wins came our way? Acknowledging these successes builds momentum and reinforces what’s working.
Now for the reality check – what didn’t go as planned? No need to dwell here; just identify the key lessons to carry forward.
The Three-Question Compass
Spend the next 5 minutes with these three essential questions:
- What one achievement from Q1 created the most impact? (This highlights where your true value lies)
- Which activity consumed time but delivered minimal results? (Your opportunity to eliminate or delegate)
- What single focus, if prioritized in Q2, would create the greatest advancement? (Your North Star for the next 90 days)
The 5-Minute Action Plan
For your final 5 minutes, create just three priorities for Q2. Not ten. Not seven. Three. This constraint forces clarity and prevents the scattered approach that kills progress.
For each priority:
- Define what “done” looks like
- Identify the first tangible step
- Schedule that first step in your calendar this week
Remember
The power of the 15-Minute Reset isn’t in elaborate planning – it’s in the ruthless clarity that comes from asking the right questions and committing to focused action.
Here’s to your Q2 success!
