What is up guys? Welcome back to build. And today I want to talk about the anti-resolution reset that I did in 2025 and how it's led into 2026. And some tactical takeaways that you guys can apply, maybe going into your 26. So I was thinking about what would be helpful to talk about right now because I will be honest like I look on my podcast feed and I look on YouTube.

It's like everything is about the new year and setting New Year's resolutions and what you should do, what you shouldn't do.

And there's just like an overwhelm of advice, which is like fairly repetitive and rudimentary. And I don't want you guys to get that from me but

I have had a lot of people asking me about what to do what not to do and so I was like you know what

fuck it I'm just going to share my recent experiences because I'm somebody who has done New Year's resolutions

I have not done New Year's resolutions I have changed many things many times in my life,

and I still continue to do so. And I just want to share some recent things that I did this last

year that worked really well for me and kind of how I got to that point. So I'll kind of take

you guys back because last January, I literally remember it like so clearly. I was staring, looking at my calendar,

and I realized something that was pretty unsettling, but I realized looking at it and trying to

figure out where I was going to fit all of my new goals into, there was nowhere to fit them into.

So like literally, I remember looking at my calendar and I was like, okay, maybe an hour here, maybe 30 minutes here, but then if I have to transition, I have to do

this. And I was like, what the fuck? How the fuck am I supposed to do more than I'm doing now?

And I think it's because, you know, for a lot of people, in general, when you think about

adding in a goal, you don't want to drop anything that you're

currently working on. I just happen to always, I would say like already have been pretty maxed out

where I was. And what I kind of realized was like I had spent at that point an entire year

adding things to my life. And I did accomplish a ton, especially

in 2024, but I was miserable.

Like, I don't want to make this really obvious.

I was miserable because of the volume, not because of the work.

I think that's a really important caveat.
