Before You Plan 2026, Do This First

4 Thoughts to Reflect On

1. The room you walk into determines how fast your goals move forward.

2. Relationship capital pays compound interest, but most people quit before the payoff.

3. You can’t think clearly when your circle is full of noise and insecurity.

4. New goals only work if they come from a clean audit of last year’s results.

4 Lessons I’ve Learned

1. I’ve made the most progress when I’ve had the courage to say: “This isn’t working.”

2. One honest mentor can shift more in your life than a year of random hustle.

3. You don’t grow from hearing what you want.
   You grow from hearing what you need.

4. Building the right circle takes effort, but not building one costs you years.

4 Challenges for You

1. Download the Year-End Audit and actually fill it out. Take it seriously.

2. Write down three things you dropped the ball on in 2025.
   Be honest.

3. Identify one person in your circle who drains your energy or distracts you from your goals.
   What’s your plan for them?

4. Reach out to someone you respect who’s ahead of you.
   Ask one question. Listen more than you talk.

Quote of the DAY

“You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.” — Jim Rohn

Most people wait for a breakdown before they do a life audit.

But the smart ones?
They do it now, when it’s quiet and come out swinging in the new year.

Here’s to clarity, strong circles, and getting real in 2026.
