The secret to success...

The biggest single positive improvement to my life and work this year has come from my daily reading habit, but that personal success came from identifying and correcting two fundamental errors, namely that I had been trying to read for too long (60 minutes rather than my optimal 30) and I was reading at the wrong time of day (in the evenings when I was tired, rather than the early mornings when my brain is at it’s most receptive).

Successful goals for 2019 will, like everything else, come from a point of balance - certainly it’s important to do more of what went well, but just as important is reflecting on why some things didn’t, because it is in our failures that the best secrets to our success are hidden.
