Do you spend much time in reflection?  Not just on the big stuff of life but on the experiences you have had, the way you have spent your time and the lessons you have learned along the way.  It is a good way to learn, in fact, it is a critical part of learning.

Experience, reflection, generalization and action are all part of the learning cycle.   Of course, experience draws us in a lot easier than reflection.  And action?  Does that involve change?  That can be unsettling.

So, how about taking some baby steps in reflection?  What book inspired you the most in 2010?  What was it that inspired you? What principles were you able to pull out and use in your life?  And what action did you take as a result?

You might want to keep the last questions private.  However, if a book has inspired you enough to take action I’d love to hear about it!

I’ll let you know mine after some reflection!
