"Let's be honest . . . resolutions just don't work. That's why a lot of gyms are empty and even more budgets are blown by Valentine's Day every year. If you really want things to change over the next twelve months, look at what Your Best Year Ever has to say--then do what it says."--Dave Ramsey, bestselling author; nationally syndicated radio show host

A clear and executable process for achieving your goals this year!
I am thrilled for Michael’s new book. I have read both Platform and Living Forward and was thrilled when he announced he would be sharing his Best Year Ever content in book format. What I love about this book is the simple, actionable step by step process Michael walks you through to accomplish your goals. I highly recommend this book because I believe it will help you identify, define and achieve the goals you have set for the next year.If that isn’t enough of a recommendation for you to order this book right now here are a few of the benefits I have gotten from this book already.1. Michael is clear with his approach. He does a great job of making clear what and how you can take action on the step by step process he lays out.2. He uses practical and current examples. I love that this book comes after tens of thousands of people have gone through his online course enabling him to use examples from alumni that apply practically to real world situations.3. Nothing is oversimplified or sugar-coated. For me acknowledging struggles will happen along the way is key to having the persistence to continue. Then connecting that to the fact that failing doesn’t mean I can never do it, it is simply an opportunity to learn what I need to change to succeed.4. Helping you find your motivation. Michael helps define how to find your motivation and how to tap into applying it to your situation to maximize your success. This is vital in moving from simply writing down goals to taking action on the goals you hold most valuable for the upcoming year!If you have been looking for a book to help you move the mark and succeed at what is most important to you in work, family and life this is it. Applying the process and using the templates in this book will help you move from thinking about what you want to do to getting it done. I hope you will enjoy it as much as I am.

I originally bought the 2018 version and that was amazing! This updated and revised version is slightly different with a few more insights. I loved this book because it has taught me things that no one else in my life knew or was even trying to do. I know that if an individual or a team were to learn and apply this knowledge, it would give them the power they need to get to where they wanna go. I hope whoever reads this uses it to better themselves and others.

I took the assessment at the beginning of the book as the author says to do. The test is good except I’m an orphan and have no family. I’m single and have no love interest in my life at the time of this writing. The test doesn’t make any allowance for these two points in it. I would like to see this assessment updated to include orphans.

The book wgives many techniques to setting, reviewing and accomplishing goals.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing book
Reviewed in the United States on January 27, 2022

This book offers tons of great information an interesting ideas of how to better position yourself for success. Definitely worth reading.

“Committing your goals to writing is not the end game. But it is foundational for success for at least five reasons. First, it forces you to clarify what you want. Imagine setting out on a trip with no particular destination in mind. How do you pack? What roads do you take? How do you know when you have arrived? Instead, you start by picking a destination. Clarity is a precondition for writing. (Ask any author suffering writer’s block; they can’t write because they’re unsure what they’re trying to say.) Second, writing down goals helps you overcome resistance. When we go to the trouble of formulating and recording our goals, we’re doing more than dreaming. We’re also engaging our intellect. We’re processing, self-checking, and analyzing. Every meaningful intention, dream, or goal encounters resistance. From the moment you set a goal, you will begin to feel it. But this emotional and intellectual engagement helps us identify deeply with our goals and forge resolve around our desires. I’ll focus on this later in Step 4. Third, it motivates you to take action. Writing your goals down is only the beginning. Articulating your intention is important, but it is not enough. You must execute your goals. You have to take action. I have found that writing down my goals and reviewing them regularly provokes me to take the next most important action. Fourth, it filters other opportunities. The more successful you become, the more you will be deluged with opportunities.”

Will definitely read again

To me, this book is VERY encouraging. It touches various points in my personal life and explains exactly what I experienced. It gives great practical advice. But certainly not an Everymans book. Definitely need a driven and focused mindset.
