Five Minute Friday: Why Most New Year Plans Fail And How to Do 2026 Differently

In today's Five Minute Friday, I'm officially inviting you to join me for The Best Year Yet Challenge—our biggest free training of the year.

Planning a new year shouldn't feel overwhelming or leave you burned out by March. Instead of chasing perfection or setting goals that fade fast, this challenge is all about creating a clear, realistic, and actionable plan for 2026—one you can actually stick to.

Over three powerful days (January 6–8), we'll review the past year, map out what truly moves the needle, build profitable systems, and create a marketing plan that works now—not six months ago. This is about small, imperfect, consistent action—and doing it together, in community.

Today's Episode:

• Why most New Year goals fail by March—and how to avoid that trap

• How to focus on the 20% of actions that drive 80% of your results

• What to expect from each day of the Best Year Yet Challenge

• How to turn big goals into clear, measurable, team-supported action plans

• Why planning beats perfection every single time
