At the end of every year, my wife and I open a leather-bound book of our annual goals. First, we review what we wrote at the beginning of that year.  It’s always disconcerting and inspiring to realize that we average around 75 to 80% success on what we envisioned for that year. Things that we were pretty sure would be beyond the pale of what we could accomplish. It also sets the bar for what we think we should accomplish in the new year.
