#9: Step-by-Step Mid-Year Review of Your Performance Goals
Time is just flying by. We are now well into another year. What a perfect time to do a mid-year check-in on your goals.
In this episode, I am talking about your personal performance goals. Remember, those goals you probably set with your supervisor last fall, which probably feels like years ago now!
These goals you set late last year or the beginning of 2020, can’t be ignored. They may have been small goals or really big stretch goals to get you to another place in your career. Either way now is precisely the right time to review where you are with your goals to make sure you’re on track, make sure they’re realistic but still exciting and challenging, and then make any of the necessary adjustments to that specific goal.
So, in today’s episode, I have four steps to help you reach your goals in the final months of the year. When I say it like that – again, doesn’t it sound crazy? – the final six months of 2020!
Here’s what this process looks like:
- Identify your goals. Get super clear on what they are and refresh your memory.
- Examine where you are at with each goal. List out the actions you have taken to make progress.
- Pinpoint what’s working and what’s not working. Identify mini-milestones to help get you to the end goal.
- Create a plan to move you forward and knock your goals out of the ballpark.
I want you to walk away from this episode with a renewed sense of motivation and a step-by-step process to help ensure that you achieve those goals.

After going through these steps, I want to know what you uncovered, what you’re going to change, and how are you feeling about everything. And the only way that I’m going to know is if you jump into the Marketers Take Flight Co-Working Community Facebook group and let me know.
So just start a post. You don’t need to look for me to start the conversation. You just jump in there and say, “Hey, I just listened to the podcast about checking my goals mid-year. Here’s what I discovered. Here’s what I’m going to do next in order to meet those goals. Here’s how I’m feeling about it.”
Keep yourself accountable by publicly declaring it in the Co-Working Community group. Believe me, doing something like that publicly makes a huge difference. Why do you think I share with you guys my goals and what’s going on with me? So that I can keep myself accountable.
