I am preparing a few sessions in the background, one of which is going to be about goal setting for a year and a quarter. Why both? Well, most of us tend to overestimate how much we can get done in a short period of time and underestimate how much we can get done in a year. One goal session will focus on long-term planning and from it I will create a short-term goal planning session. But first, I need all of you to prepare, but also dream of all the goals you would ever want to accomplish. This is going to be crucial for a proper career and personal development. I want you to do a brain dump into a document of: 1. Things you want to buy  2. Places you want to visit  3. Businesses you want to open / products you want to create 4. Courses you want to take  5. People you want to meet 6. Money you want to make The sessions won't focus on any of those in particular but I hope they will help you get some clarity on what to focus on next and which to set as a priority. Take your time and capture your thoughts in a disorganized way in a document; it will save us time at the session itself.

Few weeks back I supported a Canadian YouTuber and I bought a utility knife from them. I don't need it, I am not a construction worker and I have way to many awesome knifes already. However, I do like to support Canadian manufacturing. But how can you ensure that what is being produced is of any good quality, what is quality in the first place? This vlog is actually super awesome documentry of how to intorduce change and build delivery capacity. I highly recommand you all watch the previous episodes, even if you are not into manudacturing. There are so many lessons to be learned from this endevour. https://youtu.be/ny8W03oTS38?si=BOzf04xKcr_f9FLi

A very interesting outlook on how this will progress in the near future. I was already interested in AI Adoption and wrote a few articles about it, and now I am even more convinced that combining AI-related skills with leadership skills will give us a competitive advantage. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R6mTUK_yPKw

I think we can all use a bit of a break and have next two weeks a bit lighter in meetings and chats. However, January will be anything but slow. Here is what I am planning: - Jan 2nd - Friday - a intro/retrospective on the entire year, - Following week - goal-setting workshop - how I go about my one year vision - Shortly after we will do a budgeting workshop, a gerinner friendly introduction to project finance. I hope to see you all there

Thank you everyone for joining today. It was a good, inspiring meeting. Next month's calendar will be filled out over the weekend, and next introspective will be at the end of the month.
