Dumping New Year's Resolutions
The thing about resolutions is that they usually stay behind at some point in the year.
You can do commitments.
You can do promises.
You can do goals setting.
But to start the new year, make things simple for you. Star with ONE thing.
This one thing can take 2 forms:
- One with the big picture in mind. Or
- One to be a high actionable thing to implement asap (and keep at it).
Either way you go, you can give it a try with this:
- Grab a piece of paper, write down your desires/thoughts/wishes/goals for 2024.
- Just braindump.
- Look for the patterns.
- What do you see?
- Group the themes you find alike, together.
- Now, choose ONE.
The point of this exercise is to start small. Ridiculously small. So small that it doesn’t seem like it’s impossible, but moves you one inch at a time in the right (desired) direction.
Think of it as setting a campfire.
Jonathan Stark sums it up like this:
Now, happy new year.
You got this.

AI will replace you when it can do the things that you do better than you. If you have bad sales calls. It will replace you. If you are general and superficial. It will replace you. If you're average. It will replace you. If your conversations are forgettable. It will replace you. If you aim to serve everyone. It will replace you. Do you know when it can't replace you? When you're specialized and know your craft. It can't think. It can't reason. It can't imagine. It can't decide. It can't be...
Yesterday's message was about how to help your customers for free. When that option is already out of the way, you can help them Offering options. 3 different layers of value, to 3 aligned outcomes. The Transformation: Thinking bigger for them. The Output: Fitting into what they could afford. The Middle-Point: something that you both could co-create.
You're on a mission to help, aren't you? Giving options lets you do that at different levels. The first one you can try is free. For free? Yes and No. To help for free, yes. To work for free, no. If they can't afford you, this is how you can support them. You can help by sharing what you think and how you see things from a general POV. A perspective. It's not specific to their case, yet it's a good starting point to see what they could do by themselves —or how to get help elsewhere with a...
