A (Secret) Tip to a Successful 2026
A new year is arriving upon us!
The quiet time between Christmas and the New year is a good time to reflect deeply on what we can do better next year, in terms of setting ourselves up for abundant success and happiness.
I want to share a (secret) tip from my knowledge treasure box … gathered form my recent reading of “Atomic Habits” by James Clear. Clear wrote in one of the chapters that “perseverance, grit, and will-power are essential to success, but the ways to improve these qualities is not by wishing you were a more disciplined person, but by creating a more disciplined environment.”
This quote woke me up, not because I’ve been sleeping through reading his book (Haha!), but because of the powerful truth behind these words. I can certainly attest to what he said, connecting it deeply with what I do and how I am helping some of my early-founder clients to realize that the formula of success goes beyond having perseverance, grit and will power.
Taking Clear’s advice, my follow-through action is to transform my business and marketing roadmap for 2026 into visual cues, that will keep me honest and focused on my goals, marching towards progress, enjoying the process, and celebrating the outcome.
For 2026, I will keep these top 3 goals front and center:
1) Business Growth: Engage with companies whose sustainability spirit and actions speak louder than words. Work with them to amplify their stories and the goods that they do to elevate their brands and environmental stewardship.
2) Professional Growth: Continue using AI together with my intuition and superpower to do my best work.
3) Personal Growth: Become a better reader by reading 10 minutes, each morning before work, from a book that I want to learn from.
I will print these goals out and put them in front of my work space, using them as environment cues that will create good habits for me, while making other bad habits less visible.
Let’s go and create a disciplined environment that will set you up for abundant success.
