Strong Finish, Bold Start: Redefine Your 2025

The middle of November means two things: the year is winding down, AND it’s the perfect time to gear up for a stronger, bolder 2025. Let’s face it — most of us finish the year by squeezing out what little energy we have left, scrambling to check boxes off our to-do lists. But what if we took a different approach?

Here’s your challenge: finish the year strong, but don’t stop there. Start thinking now about how 2025 can look different.

If you want to 2x your business, your life, or your happiness, sure — you can just do more of what you’re already doing. But if you’re ready to truly 10X, that’s when you need to take a step back, break the mold, and do something completely different.

As I like to say: "If you aren’t proactively making changes to the things you aren’t happy with in your life, you forfeit the right to complain about them." -- ?? drop!

Why 2025 Should Look Different

The world isn’t standing still, and neither should you. Whether you’re an entrepreneur, an advisor, or a firm leader, there’s no “pause button” for growth. If you’re coasting on autopilot, it’s time to ask yourself:

• Are you happy with where your business is headed?
• Are you energized by your daily life?
• Are you building toward something bigger, or just repeating what’s comfortable?

Here’s the thing: doing what’s easy may help you maintain the status quo, but it won’t move you toward the extraordinary.

What Doing Things Differently Looks Like

If you’re ready to shake things up in 2025, here are a few ways to start:

Look for New Opportunities: What doors have you overlooked? What ideas have you shelved because they seemed too risky? 2025 is your year to explore them.

Rethink Your Approach: Whether it’s trying new strategies, embracing fresh tools, or hiring help, growth comes from stepping outside your comfort zone.

Focus on What Truly Fits YOU: The most successful people build businesses and lives that align with their unique strengths, values, and goals. Stop copying what others are doing and start designing something that works for YOU.

Make Bold Decisions: Growth doesn’t happen in the safe zone. Step into the risks you’ve been avoiding and embrace the discomfort — it’s where breakthroughs happen.

Ending the Year Strong, Starting 2025 Fearlessly

This isn’t just about closing out 2024 — it’s about setting yourself up for success in 2025. Reflect on what worked, what didn’t, and what you can do differently. Push yourself to explore new opportunities, embrace new approaches, and set bigger goals for the year ahead.

Here’s my favorite reminder: "If you want to 2x your business, do more. But if you want to 10X your business — and your happiness and life — do something different."

If you’re not sure where to start or how to figure out what fits you best, let’s talk. I specialize in helping entrepreneurs, advisors, and leaders find what works for them — not someone else’s version of success. Whether it’s rethinking your strategy, exploring new ideas, or building a plan for the new year, I’d love to help you start 2025 on the right path.

You can’t say you want to do & be better and then simply keep doing the same old, same old....It’s time to do things different, my friends. Let’s shake things up!

So here’s the million-dollar question: What’s the one thing YOU are going to do differently in 2025?

Always in your corner,
