10-Year Vision, 90-Day Sprints: How High Performers Actually Win

Send us Fan Mail Most leaders plan their business year in detail—and wing their personal life. In this solo episode of Spartan Leadership, Josh Kosnick shares his annual planning playbook: how to set a 10-year “lighthouse” vision, reverse-engineer it into a 3-year picture, and then execute through focused 90-day sprints. He walks through the same process for your family life so you can stop drifting and start living on purpose. You’ll learn why most New Year’s resolutions fail, how to choose the one goal you’d be furious not to hit in 2026, and how mission and core values actually become filters for decisions—not just words on a wall. Then Josh turns the lens to your marriage, your kids, and your home life so you’re not just building a bigger business, but a stronger family.
