BUT wait this time it is a good thing
You may recall that I said that if you did not have bandwidth to focus on 5 things then I would get back to you in January – well this is me getting back to you.
OK so the things you need to get on top of are the following:
1. Catch up on SXSW Syd – so what?
Especially as SXSW Syd will be no more, this is rather helpful to get your head across the themes and details.
Fingers and toes crossed the amazing curation team will come up with something equally fabulous – I have zero doubt!
2. Catch up on Change Crash Investigators
Jenn Zuber and I have been working away in the background laying all the foundations to make this happen. We were so excited to release it and have been having a ball recording the episodes.
3 episodes of Change Crash Investigators are live, (Core, Op Model Changes, Resistance – really?). 2 more for this session are due to drop in Jan (WIIFM Vs WDIM, How to get into change?)
3. Do your own Reflection Revolution
The first part of the Design Your Life on Purpose quest is around reflection. I call it a revolution for 2 reasons:
· With the busyness of life, it can feel like a luxury, or a revolutionary act to take time to pause and step off the constant hustle
· Reflection is a super powerful skill to develop, giving you the opportunity to learn from the past and celebrate the things you did amazingly well
I have more templates than you can poke a stick at, because different templates create different thought processes. These template you can download directly.
Once you have completed these two templates, reflect on what 3 things you are going to do differently and what things do you want to continue into 2026.
4. Read more Business Books in 2026
If more reading and community is in your future, then 2 actions for you – Vote for 2026 books and Sign up.
January is readers choice so all the laid back vibes that is BBC are all there
5. Get a Theme for 2026 by attending free webinar
To help you ease into 2026, one of the best ways is to set your intention for the year using a single word Contextual Beacon, (referencing heavily the work from Dr Jason Fox).
It is way more than choosing any word, a process and thinking is required to find a word that will support, resonate and act as both anchor and catalyst for 2026.
6. Join a Design Your Life on Purpose Quest for 2026
Thinking about what your Strategic Life Map might be for 2026 and beyond – the next IRL one is Saturday 14 March 2026, early bird discounts will be available until end of Jan.
6 things for 2026 – go get em!
