Summary
One year goes by so fast, but at the end of it, things slow down a bit, allowing us to reflect upon what has happened in the past 12 months. It’s always important to take that time and really give it a thought.
I advise you to end the year with a positive attitude and you can do that by acknowledging all the things you’re grateful for and all the lessons you’ve learned, that will guide you through the year to come.
In this episode, you will learn:
- What you should consider paying attention to, when thinking about the year that’s coming to an end. (02:13)
- Examples of things I am grateful for, this year. (02:41)
- Why it’s important to look back at what we’ve learned over the past year. (04:50)
- Planning and setting goals for the new year that’s coming. (06:16)

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Rejuvenaging with Dr. Ron Kaiser, the podcast designed to help you live enthusiastically. |
| 0:28.0 | Today, tomorrow and every other day of your life. I am your host, Ron Kaiser. I'm a positive health |
| 0:35.6 | psychologist and also author of the best selling and award-winning book Rejuvenaging, The Arton |
| 0:43.6 | Science of Growing Older with Enthusiasm. My website is called the Mental Health Gym. I hope you will |
| 0:51.8 | visit it and comment and let me know how you like my philosophy and the approaches that we use |
| 0:59.8 | on this podcast. Now, as those of you who are regular listeners of the podcast are aware, about once |
| 1:07.7 | a month I do a solo episode while the rest of the month is usually devoted to interviews with |
| 1:15.0 | interesting, entertaining, informative and positive guests who can help you to live your life |
| 1:20.7 | with enthusiasm. Today is one of those solo episodes and I'm recording it as we approach the end |
| 1:28.8 | of 2019. 2020 will soon be upon us and I always think that it's really good to start taking stock |
| 1:41.2 | of what's happened and start looking toward next year sometime before December 31st. I think it |
| 1:48.1 | does require kind of a maximum effort to evaluate yourself and evaluate where you want to go |
| 1:55.6 | in order to have a greater degree of control over your life. As you know, I am the developer of |
| 2:02.8 | goal achieving psychology which obviously focuses on the importance of having goals as we go through |
| 2:12.2 | our lives. Now, I think the month of December, which is what I'm recording this, is a particularly |
| 2:20.8 | good time to utilize three main thoughts, mindsets, factors in evaluating this past year and |
| 2:31.4 | approaching the coming year. Those three mindsets involve gratitude, learning and planning. |
| 2:41.2 | I think it is very important in this world where nothing really seems to be all plus or minuses |
| 2:50.8 | to look at those things for which we should be grateful. As I look back at this past year, |
| 2:59.3 | I have a lot of gratitude for a lot of things. The acceptance of my book, |
