Maybe you don’t need to fix anything this week

If you’re deep in it right now, this is not an email asking you to improve anything.

It’s just a permission slip.

This time of year has a way of surfacing everything that isn’t working – systems, workflows, boundaries, capacity – at the exact moment when you have the least ability to do anything about it.

So if your list feels endless…
If you’re powering through inefficiencies you already know exist…
If things feel heavier than they should…

That doesn’t mean you’ve messed up.
It usually just means it’s December.

Here’s the only thing I’d suggest – and it’s optional.

Instead of trying to fix what’s broken, just notice it.

Keep a running note titled:

“Things I don’t want to be doing this way next December.”

That’s it.

You’re not solving.
You’re not improving.
You’re just capturing.

Future-you will be very grateful you did.
