👉🏻3 Simple steps to plan for 2025 now.
Published about 1 year ago • 3 min read
Hey Reader,
As we get closer to the new year, it’s the perfect time to reset, refocus, and gearing up for what’s to come over the next 12 months.
Because I know the Holiday season is busy, I want to keep this short and sweet. So here are 3 things to keep your 2025 planning simple, but effective.
1. Reflect on Wins and Lessons​ Note: I said "lessons" not "losses."
Take a few minutes to write down what went well this year. Celebrate those wins (big and small). Then, write down the lessons you’ve learned. Reflect on those and use them to guide the next step.
2. Set One Big Goal​ What’s the onething that could make the biggest impact on your side hustle or business this coming year? Whether it’s launching a new product, building your audience, or finally setting up that email funnel, make it your focus.
Too often we try to do all the things all at once. Sometimes getting focus on just 1-2 things is the key to hitting our goals.
3. Plan for Consistency​ Success isn’t about doing everything, all the time, every day. It’s about showing up consistently. Choose one platform, one strategy, or one habit you’ll commit to in 2025—and stick with it.
I hope this helps. Hit 'reply' and let me know what you're committing to in 2025.

3 Things I Wish I Knew When I Started
Think back to when you first started this journey. Share three things you've learned since starting. Each point can become a piece of content:
A common misconception you had and how you overcame it.
A tool or strategy that has made your work easier.
A piece of advice you'd give your past self or others starting out.
This process not only gives you some valuable content ideas, but it's also a nice reflection exercise.
