Weekly rotate between the themes Faith, Self, Social, Finance. Can even try it out daily. - FOCUS - Am I focused on the few foundational things that matter? e.g. sleep, energy, environment, respecting time constraints - FLOOR - Am I protecting my downside with regular proactive practices? e.g. regulation, recovery, risk management, redundancy - FLOW TO FLOURISH - Am I removing friction to allow the different areas of my life to flow together well on a weekly basis? e.g. creating systems, getting support - FRUITFUL - Am I seeing tangible fruits from my efforts on the above? ONE METRIC THAT MATTERS MOST: ✦ For my business development (Beauty of Habits): All green squares on Skool ✦ For my leadership development (Leadership Experiments Library): 10 hr/wk time constraint

I gave myself full reign to explore and experiment to the moon and back in 2025...and it exceeded my expectations in both the best and the worst ways. I planned for a rollercoaster ride, but it turned into a runaway rocket experience with multiple explosions along the way. I now have a greater appreciation for "risk management" to say the least. My Top 5 Takeaways: - My 2025 strategy was to "fail forward" and to use "failure as fertiliser" - happy to report that I fully immersed myself into it. For example, I was the only person to take up Anne-Laure Le Cunff on her offer to grab a 1 hour long chat with her during her book launch (Tiny Experiments) even though there were so many unexpected challenges. - Simplicity in business requires SO much sophistication!!! I've deleted/deferred 80% of the things I tried in 2025. Only taking 20% of the golden parts into 2026. I'm super grateful to my naive self who whole-heartedly and courageously committed to exploring every gut feeling that came her way until it was too late...the diamonds were mined, but the damage was also done. - As you can imagine, I'm now going into 2026 much more cautious and conservative! Time to exploit the simple and safe (hopefully also supernova?) path in front of me. Yes, this means figuring out this "risk management" stuff, so that my personal life (specifically faith and health) does not take a huge hit at the expense of my professional adventures. Goals must come with gaurdrails in 2026. - In 2025, I was ultimately on a search for vibrant and vivid visions which complemented each other in my career. Moving forward in 2026, it looks like I will be focusing more on creating and sustaining vitality in every area of my life and work. So many thoughts and feelings are hitting me all at once right now, so I'll come back later to complete this post more concisely.
