The first six months of this year are behind us, and the final six months are ahead. The July 4th weekend – celebrating America’s Independence – is a great time to perform a mid-year goals review. Step back and reflect on your accomplishments, goals, and progress toward your financial independence. Block an hour or two out of your busy schedule this week to work on the framework of your practice. You can do this review alone, with your partner, office manager, spouse, or anyone intimately involved in the running of your practice. Bring a copy of your written practice goals, paper and pens (or computer) and be prepared to brainstorm, reflect, and reassess.
