Year End Reset | Define Your Focus for 2025
Переглядів 3514 днів тому
An end of year review can be a really insightful exercise to do. This can be done for your charity, social enterprise or community group, but it also works as an individual activity, as a way of reflecting on what’s worked, what didn’t go to plan, and helping to clarify what you want to prioritise for the year ahead. You can find the PDF template and some examples here: www.inspiringpositiveimp...

    I have used the A5 Cousin (en) for the last couple of years and it’s now my go to. I was late ordering for 2025 so could only get the Hon, but thanks to your review, I’m glad I did.

    • @inspiringpositiveimpact

    Thanks for your video, I enjoyed it! I use the same weekly planner & notebook in A5 hardcover. I have a very similar system to yours, with appointments on the left hand page. I also rule a narrow column on the left hand side to plan in my exercise for the week, which really works for me as I don’t schedule my gym visits at a particular time, but I want to see that on Friday I need to go to the gym at some point. I just write ‘Gym’ in the column on Friday with a bullet point and then can cross it off when I attend. Thought I’d just share how I have made this little tweak. If I had more room I’d do a meals column with my ideas for dinner.

    • @inspiringpositiveimpact
      @inspiringpositiveimpact 29 днів тому

      That sounds great. Yes, I probably prefer the A5 for being able to write more, but the B6+ feels more portable. I've also tried to include food & fitness in mine, but tend to run out of space and it gets a bit messy!

    Thankyou for your videos their informative and helpful. I have a question that I’m sure you’ve covered somewhere else. I want to start a not for profit/chairty. But I want to be the sole decision maker at least to start off with. Can you tell me which structure will allow me to do this, while also being incorporated. Thankyou

    • @inspiringpositiveimpact
      @inspiringpositiveimpact 5 місяців тому

      Hi. Thanks for your question. You can start a company limited by guarantee or a community interest company (CIC) as a sole director - you do only need one signature to register it, and as long as you still have an asset lock in your governing document, you could continue as a single director running it as a not-for-profit business, but if you wanted to apply for any grants you would need to have a minimum of 2 (ideally 3) directors. The number of trustees a charity needs is stated in its governing document, so it varies, but the recommended minimum is 3. I hope that helps. I'll put a link below to my video covering all legal structures. Rachel.

Only then would be be able to live authentic lives that do not project nor compensate, and hopefully have the energy and true heart for our communities.
