How do you picture retirement? Do you see yourself sipping Mai Thais on the beach in Punta Cana, wasting away in the sun like a Jimmy Buffett song? Maybe you plan on focusing on your golf game, with aspirations of winning the next member-guest tournament? Or perhaps it looks like slowing down the pace of life, to spend more time with the family. No matter how you envision the next step, do you know how to get there? A great first step is to begin with the end in mind.

Dr.  Steven Covey states in the pivotal leadership book, 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, “To begin with the end in mind means to start with a clear understanding of your destination. It means to know where you’re going so that you better understand where you are now and so that the steps you take are always in the right direction.” The decisions you make today have current and future effects. Your current decisions have an impact today and are highly visible. Future decisions have much impact in the future but have little visibility today. It requires asking the right questions, such as: What do you really want out of your career… and your life? Will you get what you want, will your significant other, will your generations?

Our team is focused on not only improving your business, but also setting you up to achieve the things that are really important to you. Begin with the end in mind, contact KHA today.
