Is it just me or does Christmas feel like ages away already?!
Now the frenzy of Christmas is past, the tree is down (sob!) we get to breathe in the clean air of this fresh new year and think…I wonder what this year will bring?
The truth is it will be a mixed bag like every year. Some people and situations will surprise us in the very best of ways. Some people or situations are going to shock the hell out of us in the worst of ways. Such is the human experience. Some of this we simply cannot predict, and we will need to roll with it, as we always ultimately do, grounded in the knowledge of our own capability and resilience, and that the world is largely a benevolent place to be.
So, the unpredictable we can’t do a lot about… however, the predictable we CAN. How we show up for ourselves in 2026 really does matter. The energy. The consistency. The intent.
So much of we will get in 2026 is not so unknowable. It’s not potluck. It’s not a mystery. It’s actually deeply predictable:
Will you bring good boundaries and an open heart to your relationships?
Will you bring commitment to show up consistently for your body in the gym or the trail?
Will you bring your patience to mentoring your staff or playing with your grandchildren?
2026 may be 20% mystery, but it will be 80% a sure thing based on what we bring.
So, if you want to know what 2026 has in store for you, grab a pen and scribble down the answer to this question:
What am I bringing to this New Year?
I (real human me!) wrote this blog for you (not AI) and it’s from my heart to yours, just as it should be.
