Before you begin:
Light a candle, maybe make some tea, and put on nice music. Turn off your phone during the reflection and consciously take time to review the year. I also recommend doing this by hand.
1) Year in Review “Big Picture” 2025 (10 min)
Questions:
- “What were my 3 most important highlights of 2025 – and why were they important to me?”
- “What were 2–3 difficult moments in 2025 – and what did I learn from them?”
- “Which habits or decisions shaped my life most in 2025 (positively or negatively)?”
- “If I had to summarize 2025 in one sentence / as a book title – what would it be?”
Optional: 5 minutes of sharing in a circle (everyone shares 1 sentence).
2) Category Reflection (90 min)
The categories are inspired by the “Wheel of Life.”
1/ Career
- “What am I most proud of professionally in 2025?”
- “Where did I grow – skills, self-confidence, responsibility?”
- “Where did I hold myself back or fall short of my potential?”
- “What headline would my professional year 2025 have in a magazine?”
