Ready to stop reacting and start directing your next year with clarity? We launch our Set Yourself Up for 2026 mini-series by laying the inner foundations that shape every choice you make: a vivid long-term vision, a small set of non‑negotiable values, and a simple system to protect your time and attention. Instead of chasing quick wins or drowning in advice, we show how to design a compass you trust and use it to make better decisions, faster.
We start by painting a five-year picture of your life and work—how you spend your time, the clients you serve, and the impact you want to create. Then we translate “values” from buzzwords into daily standards through a short exercise that surfaces what truly matters and where you’ve been compromising. You’ll learn how a vision-and-values filter cuts through noise from friends, colleagues, and social media, helping you stay authentic while still learning from feedback.
From there, we tackle the mental roadblocks that hold many of us back: limiting beliefs, procrastination, and the lies we tell ourselves when confidence dips. With a practical left-right column exercise, you’ll replace unhelpful stories with evidence-based statements that rebuild momentum. We round it out with the focus toolkit—using the 80-20 rule to identify high-leverage work, saying no to low-value tasks, and time blocking your week for strategy, clients, marketing, learning, and rest. With the holiday season approaching, we also share how to set work days, rest days, and planning days so you hit January refreshed and prepared.
You’ll leave with five concrete actions for the week: write your vision statement, choose your top three values, create a values filter for new opportunities, reframe one limiting belief, and time block your calendar. Subscribe, share with a fellow broker or business owner, and leave a quick review so you don’t miss next week’s deep dive on reflecting on 2025 and turning lessons into leverage.
