Time for a Reset

As we prepare to dive into a brand-new year, I want to share something close to my heart about goal-setting and alignment.

In the past, I’ve gone down the “logical” path—chasing what should come next in business. But even when I achieved those milestones, something always felt…off. The success didn’t feel as fulfilling as I thought it would, and honestly, I ended up more burned out than excited.

Now, I do things differently.

Instead of focusing solely on external achievements, I ask myself:

🧐 How do I want to feel in my business and life?

🧐 What does my ideal day, week, and year actually look like?

🧐 Am I building something aligned with my energy, my purpose, and my genius?

This doesn’t mean I don’t set big, ambitious goals. It’s quite the opposite. When I focus on what feels aligned, growth becomes so much easier. Being in your zone of genius means you’re not grinding against the grain—it’s a flow that energizes and inspires you.

End of Year Alignment Exercise

One of my favourite exercises comes from Tim Ferris. It’s so simple yet incredibly effective.

1️⃣ Take a look at your calendar and photo albums from the past year. Reflect on what felt really good and what didn’t.

2️⃣ Make two lists:

• A “TO-DO” list of people, places, and activities that truly lit you up.
• A “NOT-TO-DO” list of the ones that drained you.

3️⃣ Commit to designing your life and business around the things and people that bring you energy and excitement.

Try it—it’s honestly transformative. 💡
