The Turning Leaf 2026 Year in Review Workbook is a calm, guided way to close out this year and plan the next one. You look back before you plan, so your 2027 goals are built on what actually happened, not on a vague wish list. It is a 58-page fillable and printable PDF with clickable side tabs, a linked contents page, and a forest green, sage and gold design that is easy on the eyes and prints cleanly at home.
Most year-end worksheets stop at reflection. This one keeps going: you pick three goals, plan them by quarter, design the habits behind them, track those habits month by month, and come back for four check-ins during 2027.
What the year in review workbook does
It gives you one place to answer the questions that matter in December. What went well? What drained you? Which part of life needs attention next year? Then it turns those answers into a short, realistic plan.
- Look back: month by month notes, a life wheel, wins, hard parts and lessons, and a deep dive into eight life areas.
- Dream: word of the year, personal rules, a 100 dreams list, life wheel targets, a vision board and a letter from future you.
- Plan: a goal brainstorm with an impact vs effort grid, three full goal plans, a quarter map and a monthly focus page.
- Follow through: habit design, 12 monthly habit trackers dated for 2027, four quarterly check-ins and a year-end snapshot.
Who it is for
- Anyone who sets New Year goals and wants this year to stick.
- Busy people who want a guided process instead of a blank journal.
- Planner lovers who write by hand, and people who would rather type.
- Couples or friends doing a year review together (one copy per person).
What’s inside the 2027 goal planner
Start (pages 1 to 3)
A cover with space for your name, a welcome page with a four-session planner (date, time and place for each session), and a contents page where every line is a link.
Part 1: Look back on 2026 (pages 4 to 22)
- Month by month review, January to December
- Life wheel 2026: score eight areas from 1 to 10 with a reason for each, then shade the wheel
- Wins and proud moments, hard parts and lessons
- Eight life area pages: Health and Body, Mind and Growth, Love and Partner, Family and Friends, Career and Work, Money, Home and Space, Fun and Creativity. Each has a 2026 score, a 2027 target, a look back, a look ahead, and keep, stop and start boxes.
- Energy audit, keep/stop/start, thank-you list with a “told them” tick box, favorites and firsts, and 2026 on one page
Part 2: Dream 2027 (pages 23 to 29)
- Word of the year, six personal rules, and how you want to feel
- 100 dreams list with a tick box for every dream that comes true
- Life wheel 2027 targets, a nine-frame vision board, and a letter from future you dated December 31, 2027
Part 3: Plan 2027 (pages 30 to 36)
- Goal brainstorm for 20 ideas rated by impact and effort, plus your top three
- Three goal plans: why it matters, what done looks like, Q1 to Q4 milestones, action steps with tick boxes, if-then plans, helpers, tracking and a reward
- 2027 quarter map and a monthly focus page
Habits (pages 37 to 49)
A habit design page for six habits, then 12 habit tracker pages for January to December 2027 with real dates and weekdays. Track up to eight habits a month, tick the boxes, total your days, and rate the month.
Part 4: Check in (pages 50 to 55)
Four quarterly check-ins dated March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31, 2027, each with progress bars, a keep, change or drop decision for every goal, a life wheel pulse and next steps. A year-end snapshot closes the loop.
How it works

Year in review workbook FAQ
Is this a physical product?
No. It is a digital PDF download. You can print it at home or at a print shop.
Can I type in it?
Yes. Open it in a PDF reader that supports forms and type into any line. Save the file to keep your answers.
Can I use it on an iPad or other tablet?
Yes. Open the PDF in a note-taking app that lets you write on PDFs. Link support depends on the app, and many apps only follow links in read or view mode.
Are the habit trackers dated?
Yes. The 12 monthly trackers show the real dates and weekdays for 2027.

That works well. The look back pages still apply, and you can begin tracking from the current month.

Can I print it more than once?
Yes, as many copies as you like for your own personal use.
