Hey Friend,

As the year wraps up, I just want to take a moment to send a heartfelt wish your way.

This holiday season, I hope you can pause, breathe, and soak in what really matters—time with loved ones, moments of joy, and space to simply be. The inbox will wait. The to-do list will still be there. For now, let’s let it rest.


Happy Holidays!


In a world that’s constantly asking for more, I hope you can give yourself the gift of less. Less hustle, less stress, less noise. Instead, may this season bring you more connection, more laughter, and more of what fills your heart.

Take this time. You deserve it.

Wishing you Happy Holidays and a New Year filled with peace, growth, and all the things that make life meaningful.

Cheers,
Jeff

Part of that is time....
If You Write the Plan, You’ll Be Fixing It Too
Why the people closest to the work should write the plan, and what to look for when they bring it to you.   In 1987, a heavyweight named Tyrell Biggs said he had a plan to beat Mike Tyson. Tyson's response: "Everybody has plans until they get hit for the first time." He stopped Biggs in the seventh round. You probably know the version that stuck, about getting punched in the mouth. Your team's ...
