Happy New Year.
Today was a brilliant sunny day in Wales … warm enough to take a nice walk while still needing to bundle up against the wind.
Breathing the cool fresh air and feeling the winter sun allowed me a moment to pause and reflect on what has passed and on what is coming in the next year.
Yesterday I talked about 2025 and the first half of this decade.
Today is all about taking the moment to pause.
And enjoying it.
In 2026, the world isn’t getting simpler, quieter, or stopping so we can catch our breath and feel “ready.”
But it’s still presenting us with opportunities if we know where to look for them.
Real people, real conversations, and real connections that can change our lives if we’re prepared to see and act on them.
That’s what I’m walking into this year with.
More focus on what actually counts.
Less noise.
Less nonsense.
More time for the people I care about.
More effort into the work that feels honest and worth doing.
If last year knocked you around a bit, take a moment and consider the blessing of learning something valuable you wouldn’t have learned any other way.
If last year went well be thankful and reflect on what you’re capable of when things start clicking.
Wherever you’re standing today, here’s to steady progress, clear thinking, and building things we’re proud of.
Happy New Year.
