Putting together my presentation for the annual review workshop @fortelabs and I are hosting tomorrow and just wanted to share a couple of the things I've found most helpful this year.
One of the themes I repeatedly compe back to is @SPressfield's idea of "the Resistance" - that which you are most afraid of is that which you most need to do.
Thinking through where "The Resistance" is for me often tends to be the best indicator of what I need to work on

The other principle I think a lot about is Vertical coherence. Can I connect how the things I am doing on a day-to-day basis reflect my values and long-term hopes/goals?
When I am "in coherence" I find that I am much more motivated and effective.

I also started making a not-to-do list of all the things I am committing to now working.

One of the new things I'm trying this year is zero-based budgeting. The idea is from Vista private equity who has gotten famous for using it with their acquisitions to reduce expenses that aren't helpful.
But, I think it's as applicable to information as expenses. Would you subscribe to all the same newsletters, blogs, twitter accounts if you were starting again today? Probably not, so why are you still subscribed?
The other thing I'm trying to do is audit my cybersecurity best practices. I've gotten better about this but still a lot more I could be doing.
