I dropped 25 grand to hang in this room for a few hours last week.

Not to fanboy or 'flex'. I went because the right room collapses time.

And building relationship capital is the smartest investment I can ever make.

Funny because in that pic I was in the middle of a conversation changed the direction of a massive deal I have going on right now.

People don't get that. They want ROI overnight. But this stuff doesnt work like a scratch-off ticket.

You plant the seed and follow up, and in time you'll get paid back 10X what you put in.

That’s what I’m thinking about heading into 2026.

Not new year resolutions… not hype… not noise.

Instead: Who am I learning from? Who's in my circle? Who's helping me see what I can't see?

If you want 2026 to look different, you need to get real about who you really are... what you dropped the ball on... and the environment you're walking into it with.

Start by doing what my mentor told me a long time ago which is a complete thought audit.

Now it's way easier to audit your dreams and goals when you're doing well, not when it's hard. But I'd rather you start now then not do it at all so I made it easy for ya with the same thought audit I use myself.

Be honest with where you fall short. Along with who you got surrounding you right now. This'll help dial in how to actually achieve your goals not just live with the 'hope' of them coming true.

Let's crush it in 2026!
