T-minus 60 days until we have a New Year. T-minus 60 days to hit those goals and make the final tweaks to hit our metrics for 2025. Where are you? I have a long way to go personally. Can we get there? I think so. The value is in the eye of the beholder, so what do you behold?
60 day-Head start.
It starts now-Literally. We are 3 minutes away from November 1st as I write this sentence. Soon we will be entering the 60 day marker for the end of year. It is upon us now. This is where you can get ahead in the year to come. Future focused, but living in the present. What are the habits you need to dial in? What do you need to do right now to check the 2025 boxes? Hit the gym? Cut the junk, or change your habits. The choice is one to make now, and how we seize the next 60 days sets the stage for 2026.
Reflect.
Where are you on your 2025 goals? What is going well and what is not? I feel like that is an important question. Right now you are either saying “Hell yes” “I’m in Hell” or “Hell no” to whatever you are going through in life. I feel like I am in Hell currently if we are being honest. It’s like I know what direction to go but keep making a wrong turn with intent. The meaning of my hell is good though in a strange way, My calm approach has me saying hell yes to the fact things are not easy right now. The under dog in me loves the 4th quarter comeback here to end the year.
Value Now.. Or Never?
Do we seize the present moment, or do we dream about what could have been as we get consumed by the end of year holiday mayhem. Think about what 2026 could look like if you started now, today at this very moment. A foolish man will always say what can’t be done today, can always be done tomorrow…. But hasn’t it been months since you said that tomorrow is a new day?
I’ll be honest here. As you can see from the timeline in this write up I started at the end of October 31st writing this article, and it is now 8:00Pm on the 1st of November where I am at, and this still is not done. I say that to give some real perspective on this post; some realness. I am after all a human just like you, and we are not as perfect as the internet mask shows some of us to be.
The Time is Now.
Life is a journey not a destination, and whether you are leaving your 20s like me, or leaving your career of 30 years to chase your dreams. The time is now, it always has been and always will be NOW. The present moment is where we make our dreams come true. With less then 2 full months at this point in 2025 so much can change for someone.
Habits are built in 21 days, 90 days to make it permanent. Why not make a change today and get a head start on a New Year for once. So many people year after year, decade after decade say “This is my year” and by March they are right back where they started. Why not start a new trend, and use the end of the year to dig deep and get the hard things done? Do it for you. I am going to, and will report back soon.
