Your Best Year Yet 1

Over the next few days you will find that there will be a series of posts about resources you may be interested in, perhaps even belated Christmas presets to yourself 🙂

Today we begin with Your Best Year Yet by Jinny S. Ditzler.

Coaches often deal with goals so you may already have personally carried out your own goal setting exercises for the New Year. This book is one I was introduced to several years ago and one I have used myself practically every year since.

Your Best Year Yet is a book that is split into 3 parts:

  1. An introduction to the principals behind “Your Best Year Yet” and sharing experiences of those who have already played,
  2. Part two comprises of 10 chapters, with each chapter devoted to a particular question,
  3. The space in the book for you to answer your questions and complete your very own best year yet “workshop”.

How you use this book is is up to you, if you wanted you could jump straight to part 3 referring back only to part 2 for any clarity you need on any of the questions. You may want to read parts one and two in preparation for using the program yourself.

The workshop section comprises of 10 questions that look back over the last year, guides you through identifying what you want and then walks you through setting your own guidelines and focus. In my opinion, it’s beauty is in its simplicity. Its layout means that no matter if you are familiar with goal setting creating your own personal plan for the year ahead is very easy.

You can take as long as you like to complete this book but I would estimate that the final section would need 2-3 hours to answer fully.
