🎄 Merry Christmas from HiveThink! 🎄

As festive cheer fills the air, we wanted to take a moment to extend our warmest holiday wishes to you and your loved ones.

Today isn't about business strategies or marketing tips; it's about embracing the joy and peace of the season.

However, we understand that for many, the New Year is not just a time for celebration but also a period of reflection and planning.

Whether you're someone who’s into New Year's resolutions or you find that the holidays are just a good time to get introspective and check-in with yourself, here’s some links to a few books that the HiveThink team thinks may help with your goals.

🌟 3 Books for a Bright New Year 🌟

01 The Twelve Week Year - For Holistic Planning & Doable Short-Term Action

The basic idea of this book by Brian P. Moran and Michael Lennington is to envision your long-term goal/vision (5, 10, 20 years, etc.).

Once you have that, create a 12-week plan that moves you towards that vision across various areas of your life.

At the end of the 12-weeks you will evaluate how it went, how to do even better next time, and then plan the next 12-weeks.

Read more about it in-depth in this article here.

02 Atomic Habits - For Those That Prefer Systems Over Goals

In case you missed this often-toted book from James Clear, it’s a great book on building habits.

If the idea of setting goals doesn’t sit well with you, this can actually be a great alternative, because it’s more about starting where you are and gradually growing than trying to hit a big ending point; gardening more so than architecting.

03 The ONE Thing - For Those On A Hyper-Focused Mission

Got a singular project or end result that you are laser-focused on knocking down?

Give The ONE Thing a shot.

We’ve recommended this book before as a general tool, but for those with a single burning desire, this could be the first domino to knock down that helps you knock the rest down and achieve your big goal.

🎄 In Closing

As we celebrate the holidays in 2023, let's carry the warmth and happiness of this festive season into the New Year. Here's to a year filled with success, health, and joy!

Warm wishes,

The HiveThink Team
