Podcasts about goals

If you're feeling even a tiny bit of pressure to have this new year figured out already, I just want you to know you're not alone.This episode is a gentle pause before you decide what you're aiming for. It's about listening to your own voice first. Really listening. Especially to the quieter parts of you that tend to get rushed or talked over.Once you get aligned with that voice, then it's time to set some goals (or intentions if you're not a goal person). Goals are helpful and I'm all for it, but let's just make sure they're the right goals for you and where you're at.In this episode I share how I'm approaching this year, why goals sometimes start to feel heavy, and a simple question I asked my Growth Studio community that opened up way more than I expected.You don't need all the answers yet. You just need a little room to hear yourself so that you can start. Episode Highlights00:00 — That weird January pressureYou know the feeling. Everyone's in a hurry and you're not sure what you're hurrying toward yet.04:05 — The voice that keeps getting interruptedNot the loud obnoxious ones. The quieter “eh… I don't know about this” that usually gets ignored.08:40 — When goals start feeling heavyThis is where things get tricky (it's not because you're doing anything wrong).13:25 — A quick gut-check before you commit to anythingSomething simple I use to tell if I'm stretching myself… or setting myself up to shut down.18:35 — The permission question I can't stop thinking aboutIt has nothing to do with adding more — and it might change how you approach this year.Support the showAnd hey - if this episode hit home, do me a favor, leave a review on Apple Podcast or come say hi on Instagram: @savvypainterpodcastI'd love to hear this episode resonated you. ❤️

Join The Half Marathon Follow-Through Formula (FREE 4-Day Challenge) If you've trained for a half marathon before but didn't follow through, this episode will change how you think about training. In this episode of the Healthy Runner Podcast, Dr. Duane Scotti breaks down the real reason half marathon training falls apart for so many runners (it has nothing to do with motivation or discipline).  Most runners are committed and driven, but they're missing a system that actually fits real life. You'll learn why relying on motivation leads to burnout, how skipping strength and recovery increases injury risk, and what it really takes to stay consistent when life gets busy.  Inside the episode, you'll discover: - Why most half marathon training plans fail - The 5 biggest mistakes that cause runners to fall off - How to build a realistic weekly training schedule - Why strength and recovery are essential for consistency - How to adjust training without quitting when setbacks happen Duane also shares a real runner success story and invites you to join a free 4-Day Challenge, The Half Marathon Follow-Through Formula, designed to help you stop feeling stuck and finish strong in 2026. If you want to stop starting over and finally follow through on your half marathon goals, this episode is for you.  

What if this year, instead of chasing after goals, you focused on becoming the person you truly want to be?   In this episode, we are exploring the concept of identity and how it shapes our actions and decisions. Join me as I share insights on leading with clarity and compassion rather than obligation.   You'll discover how to align your identity with your goals, making your journey feel more authentic and less like a chore. Plus, I'll provide you with some powerful self-reflection questions to help you connect with your true self.   This year is about becoming more of YOU. Let's embrace our identities, lead with intention, and start taking conscious steps today to become who we are meant to be!  

In this episode, Dr. Stacy Heimburger discusses the importance of setting intentions for the new year by focusing on identity rather than just actions. She emphasizes the need to build a foundation of identity to support habit formation and introduces the concept of a focus word as a guiding principle for personal growth. The conversation also highlights the significance of community support in achieving goals and encourages listeners to reflect on their values and desired identity for the year ahead.Key Takeaways:We often fail at habits because we skip building a foundation.Changing our identity is crucial for lasting change.Focus on who you want to become, not just what to do.A focus word can help guide decisions and actions.There is no deadline for making positive changes.Community support can enhance personal growth efforts.Visualizing your future self can clarify your goals.Small, incremental changes can lead to significant growth.Your focus word acts as a filter for opportunities.You don't have to navigate this journey alone.Join Kickstart 2026!  www.sugarfreemd.com/kickstart2026Free 2-Pound Plan Call!Want to jump start your weight loss?

On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, WMAL's Larry O'Connor fills in for Mark. The media and radical left have not learned their lesson they're in the middle as they keep attacking President Trump instead of addressing that what occurred in Minnesota was wrong. The moment you say something about Somalians, you ae considered to be racist. Which is absolutely ridiculous. What the Somali community did regarding this money fraud scandal is sad, wrong, and evil. Also, Politico's Josh Gerstein suggested on X that knocking on doors at Minnesota daycare centers could “intersect” with stand-your-ground laws—think about that for a second. A journalist implying homeowners might legally shoot other journalists for investigating fraud? Outrageous! Independent reporter Nick Shirley exposed what looks like massive taxpayer-funded fraud, and instead of focusing on corruption, Gerstein warns about gun laws. Social media lit him up, and rightly so—he even got Minnesota law wrong, claiming “not in your home” when it's a duty-to-retreat state. This is the media protecting the establishment, intimidating citizen journalists, and proving once again why trust in these elitists is in the gutter.  Learn more about your ad choices.

What if your New Year's resolutions keep failing because they were never really yours to begin with? Most goals we set aren't chosen—they're inherited from magazines, social media, parents, or that version of ourselves we think we're supposed to become. That's why they don't stick. In this episode, Tony shares his decades-long "pushup obsession" and how Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) finally broke the cycle—not through more discipline, but by discovering what actually mattered to him. What you'll learn: - Why "socially compliant goals" sabotage your motivation before you even start - The crucial difference between values (your compass) and goals (checkboxes)—and why confusing them keeps you stuck - How to use lead measures instead of lag measures to build sustainable change - The "Passengers on the Bus" technique for moving forward even when self-doubt is loud - A simple 5-step "Get Back on the Saddle" plan for when you inevitably wobble With over 20 years of clinical experience, Tony explains why you're not broken—you're human—and offers a framework for building a life that actually feels like yours. Ready to stop beating yourself up and start driving toward what matters?

This episode is a raw and honest look at what it means to run your business and lead your team during hard seasons. Molly and I talk about what happens when you experience real loss, how to let your business support you when you can't be fully in it, and why it's still okay (maybe even important) to name success and pursue goals in the middle of it all. We also dig into the difference between skill building and application, how small decisions can feel impossible when you're emotionally maxed, and why embodying your success is the exact path to achieving more of it.   In this episode, you'll hear: • The reality of grief and loss while running a business • How to let your business run without you and adjust to its size • Why small fixes can be the hardest and how to navigate them during tough seasons • The one thing you need to create more safety, satisfaction, and self-trust • The myth about selling that keeps so many from scaling • The difference between skill acquisition and skill application (and why it matters for your client results) Episode Links Join my Facebook group Connect with Molly on Instagram Learn more about Molly on her website If you're enjoying the coaching you're hearing, check out my Ultimate Mini Course to Maximizing Results in 1:1 Coaching to learn the proven strategies & foundational tools for creating an in-demand container that gets your clients real results

Most hockey goals fail because they're too vague, too big, or have zero accountability built in. In this episode, I'm breaking down exactly how to set goals that actually stick. The kind that turn into real results on the ice. We'll cover why specificity is everything, why starting small is the secret most players miss, and how to build accountability so you don't just set goals and forget them. I also get into something called the fresh start effect and why right now might be the perfect time to lock in and finally make it happen. Takeaways: -The fresh start effect can boost motivation for goal setting. -Vague goals often lead to failure; specificity is key. -Process-based goals are more effective than general goals. -Focusing on one habit at a time creates momentum. -Starting small makes it easier to build habits. -Accountability increases the likelihood of achieving goals. -Tracking progress helps in assessing improvement. -Involving trusted individuals can enhance accountability. -It's important to set realistic goals for success. -Utilizing coaching resources can provide additional support.

A new year often inspires fresh resolve. We plan more carefully, set ambitious goals, and commit to making this time different. But year after year, many resolutions quietly fade—not because people lack sincerity, but because most change efforts rely on willpower alone.That's where a deeper, more biblical approach to change comes in.Today on Faith & Finance, I sat down with Taylor Standridge, Production Manager at FaithFi and lead writer of Our Ultimate Treasure and Look at the Sparrows, to explore why so many resolutions fail—and what Scripture reveals about change that truly lasts.Why Willpower Isn't EnoughTaylor explained that most resolutions fade because they're built on effort rather than formation.“Willpower is a limited resource,” Taylor said. “We assume that if we just try harder or become more disciplined, we'll finally become the person we want to be. But once motivation wears off, or life gets stressful, old patterns take over.”According to Taylor, the problem isn't that people set bad goals—it's that they try to change actions without addressing identity. Without a deeper shift in what we value and who we believe we are, even the best intentions eventually lose momentum.“We may change what we do for a while,” Taylor said, “but if we don't change the kind of person we're becoming, those changes won't last.”Behavior Change vs. Identity TransformationTaylor drew a helpful distinction between modifying behavior and experiencing true transformation.“Behavior change is about effort—showing up, pushing through, saying no,” he said. “But identity transformation reshapes our desires and motivations. It changes why we choose what we choose.”That's why FaithFi emphasizes the idea that behavior follows belief. When change focuses only on habits, goals often end once they're achieved. But when change is rooted in identity, it cultivates a way of life that continues beyond any milestone.“It's the difference between acting healthy and becoming the kind of person who naturally chooses health,” Taylor explained.How Identity Changes the Way We Set GoalsTo illustrate, Taylor pointed to health resolutions—one of the most common goals people set each year.“A behavior-based goal might be, ‘I want to lose 20 pounds,'” Taylor said. “That's fine—but once the weight is gone, the motivation often disappears.”An identity-based goal asks a deeper question: What kind of person do I want to become?“When someone says, ‘I want to honor God by caring for the body He's given me,' everything changes,” Taylor said. “Now the goal isn't just a number—it's a lifestyle.”Identity-driven goals last because they're rooted in purpose, not pressure.Applying Identity to Financial ResolutionsTaylor said this approach is especially powerful when applied to financial goals.“Let's say someone wants to pay off $20,000 in debt,” he said. “That's a great goal—but it becomes far more meaningful when it's rooted in identity.”Instead of focusing solely on eliminating debt, Taylor encouraged believers to frame their financial goals around stewardship.“When someone says, ‘I want to be a wise steward so I can live with freedom and give generously,' the goal becomes formative,” he explained. “That identity continues shaping decisions long after the debt is gone.”According to Taylor, identity-based stewardship influences spending, saving, giving, and long-term financial faithfulness—not just one year's resolution.Scripture Shows That Change Starts in the HeartTaylor pointed out that this inward-first approach isn't a modern idea—it's woven throughout Scripture.“God has always been after our hearts, not just our habits,” Taylor said. “Israel had clear commands, but having the law wasn't enough. Their hearts were unchanged, so their lives were unchanged.”That's why God promised to give His people a new heart and a new spirit. Taylor noted that Jesus echoed this truth when He taught that a tree is known by its fruit—what we produce flows from who we are.“God isn't impressed by performance alone,” Taylor said. “He desires people who trust Him and live out of that trust.”The Holy Spirit Makes Lasting Change PossibleTaylor emphasized that true transformation is not self-generated—it's Spirit-empowered.“External rules can restrain behavior, but they can't renew desires,” he said. “The new heart God gives doesn't just help us try harder—it reorders what we love.”Under the new covenant, believers don't rely on their own strength to change. Instead, the Holy Spirit reshapes desires and produces fruit like self-control, patience, and faithfulness.“These qualities are called the fruit of the Spirit for a reason,” Taylor said. “They grow naturally as we remain rooted in Christ.”As the new year begins, Taylor encouraged believers to start with prayerful reflection rather than immediate goal-setting.“Ask, ‘Lord, where are You inviting growth in my life?'” he said. “Pay attention to holy dissatisfaction—the places where God is gently nudging you toward change.”Taylor also encouraged seeking wisdom from Scripture and trusted believers, noting that identity is not something we invent, but something God forms in us.“The goal is alignment,” he said. “Not creating a new identity, but embracing the one God is already shaping through His Spirit.”Let Goals Flow from IdentityOnce identity is clear, Taylor said goals become expressions—not endpoints.“If you want to be a faithful steward, build practices that reflect that,” he said. “Budget, automate savings, grow in generosity. If you want to be healthier, choose routines that align with that identity.”Taylor emphasized the value of structure and measurable goals, noting that tools such as progress tracking and target-setting drive accountability. But he stressed that numbers should never become the foundation of change.“Goals can be reached. Circumstances can shift,” Taylor said. “Identity is what lasts.” In closing, Taylor offered a simple but powerful encouragement.“Start small. Trust the Holy Spirit. Focus on faithfulness, not perfection,” he said. “You're not pursuing change alone. The God who calls you to transformation walks with you and delights in your growth.”When resolutions flow from who God is shaping us to be, they don't just last for a year—they shape us for a lifetime.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I took out a Parent PLUS loan for my son years ago, and after falling behind, the balance has grown to about $20,000.

2026 starts tomorrow, have you set any goals for your business yet? Today, Jill explores whether goal setting is actually useful within the worlds of online coaching, entrepreneurship, and fitness-based businesses. Goals can be useful—not as rigid outcomes that you have to accomplish in order to feel successful, but rather as intentions that guide your actions. Different personalities approach goals differently, and your own mindset around them can impact motivation, performance, and follow-through. When goal-setting, it's important to stay flexible, reverse-engineer what you want to achieve, and create clear plans while leaving some room for learning along the way. There's always a more grounded, strategic, and compassionate approach to setting goals for your business and life.   Get on the waitlist for FBA: https://jillfitfree.com/fba-waitlist/   Jill is a fitness professional and business coach who effectively made the transition from training clients in person and having no time to build anything else to training clients online and actually being more successful.

Most New Year's resolutions fail by February.   Not because people lack ambition, but because resolutions are emotional promises rather than execution systems.   In this short five-minute episode, I reframe New Year's resolutions into something far more effective for business acquisition success. Affirmations that shape identity. Execution commitments that force action. Goals that become inevitable outcomes. This episode is for serious acquisition-minded entrepreneurs who are done preparing and ready to execute in 2026.   I walk through a simple, disciplined framework used by my most successful mentees and end with a practical exercise you can complete in one sitting.   To Your Success,   Bruce

Building on their previous conversation in Episode 361 about closing out the year well, Drs. Drew Brannon and Milt Lowder turn their focus to what comes next: action. While reflection creates awareness, awareness without action can actually increase anxiety. In this episode, they unpack why so many goals and resolutions fade and share what it takes to make real, lasting change. You'll learn practical strategies to move from intention to execution, increase follow-through, and build systems that support sustainable growth throughout the year ahead.

This week on Acta Non Verba, I’m discussing the common practice of making New Year's resolutions, citing that 80% of people fail within two weeks. Rather than repeating the cycle, I have four transformational questions to help leaders align their goals with their vision and purpose. This episode provides an insight into the philosophies, tactics, and strategies used by successful leaders to overcome adversity and lead extraordinary lives.

Already working on your 2026 mood board? Or maybe listing your resolutions and goals for the next 12 months?  Well, for this special New Year's episode, we're revisiting our end-of-year conversation with Hero Bonnie Heim about the secret to achieving even your loftiest ambitions. As an Accountability Coach, Bonnie gives insightful tips and valuable reminders for accomplishing any new goals you set for yourself. Enjoy!And stay tuned, new episodes are on the way in 2026!---------Self-trust is the cornerstone of achieving your New Year's goals, and it begins with small daily commitments. These tiny but mighty non-negotiable wins can reinforce your belief in your ability to follow through. Self-trust is about showing up for yourself consistently, even when faced with discomfort, and using accountability as a tool to stay on track. Each step, when taken with intention, creates a cycle of growth, building confidence and resilience along the way. Cultivating self-trust also requires self-compassion, as acknowledging your efforts and celebrating progress enhances a positive mindset. By trusting yourself, you unlock the power to overcome challenges and create meaningful, lasting change.In this episode, we talk about self-trust—what it is, why it matters, and how to identify and leverage it for your 2026 aspirations.What You Will Learn[09:47] What true self-trust is, and how it shows up in our life[11:01] The 3 daily non-negotiable wins that will help you ground and build up trust[14:27] How cultivating self-trust helps us lean into discomfort to achieve[15:47] How to set goals, build trust, and consistently show up for yourself [23:27] Why following through on commitments is so vital to self-trust[26:46] An example of how the ability to trust oneself can transform with accountability[30:15] The role of self-compassion in cultivating self-trust  [37:31] How accountability coaches can serve as external validation [42:28] Daily practices to hold yourself accountable and build self-trust[46:50] How accountability and self-trust help create fulfillment and confidence in life[50:12] Slow and steady: Setting and achieving your 2025 resolutions Let's Connect!Follow The Healing Heroes on Instagram & LinkedIn.Bonnie HeimWebsite | InstagramChandler StroudWebsite | LinkedIn | InstagramMixing and editing provided by Next Day Podcast.

As the year closes, I'm focusing in this episode on BigLaw goals for associates without resorting to platitudes, firm retreat slogans, or vague resolutions that quietly collapse by February. After years as an equity partner in BigLaw, I've seen that the associates who actually move forward are not the ones making dramatic promises to work less, do everything better, or reinvent themselves overnight. Instead, the associates who most often make progress are the ones who focus on taking smaller, actionable steps in specific, visible ways that compound inside a system that is in many ways beyond their control. In this episode, I walk through what that looks like in practice. We talk about why goals built around staffing, hours, or personality change usually fail, and what BigLaw actually rewards instead: reducing friction for partners, exercising judgment, managing up, and being predictable and reliable in ways that matter. I explain concrete behaviors partners notice when evaluating and promoting associates, including how you frame decisions, communicate risk and timing, and signal judgment without overstepping. This is about learning how to operate more effectively inside BigLaw as it exists, not as we wish it did. At a Glance 00:00 Why BigLaw goal-setting can feel hollow and frustrating - even cringey  01:19 Why extreme "everything must change" thinking misses what actually moves careers 02:40 Why goals tied to things you don't control quietly set you up to fail 03:40 The compounding advantage of getting slightly better in visible ways 04:08 Reducing friction: how partners actually experience working with you 04:29 Anticipation and judgment versus stopping exactly at the four corners of the assignment 05:57 Managing up by framing decisions instead of asking open-ended questions 06:44 Predictability, early flags, and why silence is riskier than bad news 08:00 How BigLaw gives you positive feedback without ever saying "good job" 09:17 Why choosing one key incremental improvement beats trying to fix everything 10:06 The practical bottom line for building momentum year over year For Apple Podcasts, click here, scroll to the bottom, tap to rate with five stars, and select "Write a Review."

Longevity is about "how do we have a better quality of life later in life" rather than simply living longer. Taking steps to improve our health today will compound over time and allow us to live better later. In order to know where to start we need to test and monitor our body to identify areas for improvement.Key takeaways:Longevity is about quality of life, not just living longerHealth components are interconnected: sleep, nutrition, fitness, mindset, and mental health all work togetherSmall, consistent behavior changes compound over time to create significant health improvementsTesting is essential to understand what's happening inside your body at the cellular levelProper recovery from injuries is crucial for long-term healthPerfection isn't necessary - focus on consistent improvement rather than flawless executionConfidence increases naturally as health improves, creating a positive feedback loopI'm grateful for another year of bringing great health information to my listeners and thankful for all the guests who have shared their expertise.

Welcome to a monumental episode! As we close out 2025, we are not only giving you the ultimate blueprint for strategic goal setting but also making the huge announcement that Real Estate Investing is branching out from the Master Passive Income Network to become The Equity Builders Club Podcast—specializing in Canadian and Montreal real estate strategy!This transition exemplifies the power of specific goals, which is the core of today's topic: Why you must stop relying on vague New Year's Resolutions.This episode dives deep into the strategic methods used by successful investors and high performers. You'll learn how to apply the well-known SMART Goal framework (Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, Time-bound) to complex real estate scenarios, moving beyond simple concepts like weight loss and property acquisition to tackle challenges like improving your professional network and quantifying hard-to-measure skills.Crucially, we explore the difference between Outcome Goals (like "buy a building") and Habit Goals (like "make one offer a week"). Outcome goals point the way, but it's the consistent habits—the daily actions—that actually generate long-term equity and financial freedom. We discuss why focusing solely on outcomes often leads to frustration and how aligning your habits with your "big why" is the secret to enduring motivation and change.Tune in to learn:How to apply the SMART criteria to real estate goals (from property acquisition to network growth).The essential role of Habit Goals in manifesting your investment outcomes.Why deep alignment with your goals (your "big why") is the non-negotiable key to sustaining difficult behavioral change.Full details on the rebrand to The Equity Builders Club and our new focus on Canadian real estate for 2026.Don't miss this final episode before the pivot!

This New Year's Eve episode sits in the quiet, powerful space between what was and what's coming. We explore the idea of “liminal moments” — those in-between seasons that shape how we actually step into the next chapter — and unpack three deceptively simple questions that can reset your direction, reclaim your energy, and bring clarity to what really matters in 2026.Five takeaways, in true Grit Meets Growth spirit:The way you close a year shapes how you enter the next one.New Year's Eve isn't just a countdown — it's a liminal moment. A threshold. How you pause, reflect, and realign here quietly determines the momentum you carry into 2026.Not everything deserves more of you — only what truly matters does.Your best year won't come from doing more. It will come from putting more energy into the few things that actually move your life, health, relationships, and purpose forward.Energy in the wrong places is still waste.Habits, distractions, fear, comparison, and commitments you've outgrown quietly steal your momentum. Taking that energy back is one of the fastest ways to feel lighter, clearer, and more focused.Consistency changes you — intensity just makes noise.Big emotional sprints feel heroic, but they rarely last. Real transformation is built through simple, repeatable actions done quietly and faithfully over time.Nobody builds a meaningful life alone.Alignment, accountability, and brotherhood aren't optional — they're essential. The right people don't just cheer you on… they anchor you to the man you said you wanted to become.ONE TRUTH: You don't become who you want to be through big promises — you become him through small, consistent choices made on ordinary days, with the right people keeping you anchored.

Happy New Year's Eve!Our final episode of 2025 continues our look at quotes devoted to the concepts of goals and goal-setting. I have been a huge believer in goal-setting for a long time, and I have talked about it before on the podcast, usually during this week of the year.In today's episode, I focus a bit more on making sure you are setting your goals for the new year. You will hear five quotes today in support of these ideas.As we finish off the year 2025, let me say again that I am grateful to all of you who support the podcast! I do this show because of you. While I enjoy the quotes myself, I do this podcast because many of you who are looking for inspiration and impact from these quotes come back and listen to it on a consistent basis.

Together, we address the exhaustion so many midlife women are carrying and create space for a much-needed reset after a full and demanding year.  You'll be guided through what truly worked in 2025, what you're ready to release, and what you want to consciously carry forward as you turn the page.  With a focus on discernment, alignment, and intention—hallmarks of the perimenopausal journey—this episode offers 12 powerful reflection questions to help you find clarity on all you've gone through this year.   Tune in to honor how far you've come and step into 2026 with renewed confidence and purpose!

As we head into a new year, I'm not trying to set bigger goals or push harder. Honestly, I'm doing the opposite. I've realized that striving has a way of sneaking in — even when things are going well — and it slowly steals joy, peace, and clarity. So lately, every goal and every decision in my life and business has to pass through the same three filters: Is this simple? Is this effortless? And… is it actually fun? Today, I want to walk you through that filter and how it's changing the way I build, decide, and trust God with what's next. Chapters 00:00 Embracing Simplicity for the New Year 05:15 The Filters of Decision Making 11:51 The Power of Effortlessness 22:14 Finding Joy in Fun 30:08 Clarity and Peace in Decision Making

New Year's resolutions are often self-centered, with the resolution peaking right around January - but not beyond it. How do we persevere into fruitfulness with these decisions, but also choose things which honor God in the first place? ----------------------Ben has completely revised and updated his powerful book, Jesus in the Secular World: Reaching a Culture in Crisis—a must-read guide for anyone longing to reach those who may never step foot in a church.

Hi mama, Get my free guide: ✨ ChatGPT Prompts Made Simple for Moms ✨today! This episode is the exhale… the moment to pause before rushing into the new year with another long list of goals. As we wrap up the Becoming Her series, this conversation brings everything together. Instead of asking, “What do I want to do next year?” we shift the focus to something much more powerful:

Hosts Tasha Huo and Josh Hallman discuss how many of their 2025 Goals they achieved (spoiler alert: Josh beat Tasha), and what they can learn from their successes and failures going into 2026.    Questions / Comments: ActTwoWriters@gmail.com Edited by the GREAT Paul Lundquist 

As we wrap up 2025, it seems like everywhere you look, it's all about reflection journals, vision boards, 90-day planners, and goal-setting frameworks. If you're feeling absolutely nothing (or, let's be real, maybe a little guilty it's not working for you), I'm right there with you. So, instead of one more system to make you feel “less than,” I'm serving something totally different—a simple, honest inventory. Just three lists: Energy, Money, Time. Here's the breakdown:Energy InventoryWhat gave you energy this year? What absolutely drained you—even if it was profitable or “successful”?Which tasks, clients, or projects left you jazzed up… and which made you want to flee the building?Notice the patterns. Pattern recognition tends to be a skill that ADHD brains excel at.Money InventoryWhat actually made you money, versus what you thought should make you money?Which offers did people really buy? Where did revenue flow in from? What's gathering dust (subscriptions, courses, tech) in your digital library?If most of your money came from one thing, but you spent all your time on everything else—this is info, not failure.Time InventoryWhen did you do your best work? Was it in performance windows that don't match “normal” business hours?Was your magic at 10 pm in the car, Friday mornings, or after a walk or shower?This is about gathering intelligence, not shaming yourself. Design your days around your actual brain, not someone else's ideal.Subtraction is StrategyEvery time I let go of what wasn't working, the good stuff got even better. So maybe your “stop doing” list is more important than any “to-do” list. Eliminate the clients, offers, or systems that drain you, no matter how much they pay. Permission granted to not start that newsletter, podcast, or YouTube channel you've been “planning” for two years.Final step:Commit to ONE thing that's already working and carry it forward. Whether it's sticking to your creative window or leaning into your night owl energy, just one thing that fits your brain. For me, it's this podcast. No pressure, no massive goals, no breakthroughs required. 2026 is happening no matter what. Go in knowing what energizes, pays, and fits your unique brain—and that's your built-in advantage.Mic Drop Moment:“We're great at building these complex offers that we think people want. We spend months perfecting the positioning, creating the fancy framework, building out the whole fricking thing. And then we're genuinely shocked when that simple little thing we threw together in an afternoon is the one that actually makes more money.”About the Host:Diann Wingert (she/her) is a seasoned coach, consultant, and the creator/host of ADHD-ish. Drawing from her many years of experience as a former psychotherapist, business owner, and someone who thinks "outside the box," Diann is known for her straight-talking, no-nonsense approach to the intersection of neurodiversity and business ownership.
