Confessions & Convictions! 2026 Changes!

Posted this on LinkedIn last week, and got such a amazing outpouring of encouragement. If you are on LinkedIn, I would love for you to comment there and enter the conversation. On January 7th, I turned 50 years old. For the last few months, I've been praying and looking inward to orient myself, not only around going into a new year, but going into my 50th year o this planet. Here's the biggest thing that came up: 2026 BIG CHALLENGE Confession: I haven't been good to my body. I don't exercise. I'm a big dreamer. It's easier for me to tend to things in the stratosphere than to things in my own body. I've tried to do exercise programs in the past, but I lacked conviction and struggled with inconsistency (Tenacity is a working frustration).So, I'm posting publicly as one mechanism for accountability and encouragement! THE COMMITMENT 2026 will be an entire year of exercise consistency for me. Four workouts a week (mobility, cardio, strength)Yes, please ask me how it's going anytime we talk this year. This accountability helps me persevere. VISION FOR 2026 Beyond fitness, 2026 will also be a year of pulling the levers that most align with my unique Identity and Design as "The Creative Connector, Hearer and Holder of Hearts": THE FOUR Cs * *Connections.* Making at least two (2) strategic introductions per week on average. * *Creativity.* Creative writing 5 minutes a day at 90% consistency. * *Content.* Producing at least two pieces of content every week on average. * *Coaching.* Calling people upwards into their true identity and design through meetings and Superpower Profiles. At least two (2) sessions or profiles per week. BIG ANNUAL ACCOMPLISHMENTS * Publish my second book -- Volume 1 of my poetry/fantasy novel series, "Solomen." https://solomenstory.com * Two getaways with my wife * Two family getaways. HOW I'M DOING THIS Because I have struggled with inconsistency, I will be using my Black Binder system, heavily influenced by Alan Briggs's Right Side Up Journal. This is a daily planner/journaling system that locks in progress. The biggest upgrade this year is my Friday Look-Back page that forces weekly accountability to my commitments.
