It Is Time to Plan

10 Things to Think About Before January 01, 2026

Thought #6: Working Backwards

As you plan for 2026, don’t start where you are: start where you want to land and reverse-engineer the route like an explorer mapping the exit before the entry. Working backwards means imagining the goal is already achieved and then, calmly assessing whether it’s realistic given your current lifestyle, location, beliefs, and abilities; with no wishful thinking, just clarity.

Try analyzing it the way you’d advise a close friend:

What habits need upgrading?

What support systems need adding?

 What distractions need to be eliminated to make this future workable?

The smartest plans unfold in stages, not seismic shifts, because sustainable momentum comes from adopting the right mindset first and letting the logistics catch up.

Leah’s Take: If the future version of you wouldn’t recognize today’s routines, that’s not failure; that’s your cue to evolve strategically, not dramatically.
