2025 has been a year.
It’s inspired my 2026 theme of letting go and taking action. As I reflected on the past year I realized that I spent more time analyzing and hyper fixating on things I CAN’T control than I did taking any action.
Now- I think this is a reasonable and normal response to having access to so many people, problems, and current events 24/7 – 365 days a year. What has helped us connect in ways we never thought possible is also what wears us down.
Presenting your mind 1,000 horrifically urgent problems with only 24 of your daily hours and that dropped-out-of-college brain of yours to tend to them…may not effective at spurring you into action. It’s much more likely to make you freeze.
So I’ve made the intention to let go- of what I can’t control.
When I stumble upon a problem- personally or within the community on a global scale- I acknowledge it, give it the space it needs…but then I evaluate if I can take any action. No? We are letting go. But yes- we get to work.
And mind you- no action is too small…it just needs to be actionable. That also doesn’t mean we don’t revisit the problem late…it just means that if nothing can be done about it RIGHT NOW…then it’s not right now’s problem.
I hope I get the honor of seeing some of the benefits of change that come with consistent action in 2026.
Here’s to letting go and taking action.
