Yo Ho Ho Reader,
December is here, and that usually means two things:
- Everything comes with a mince pie.
- Commitment starts to waver, and people find excuses.
The first challenge is simple to handle: use the finger test. Jab your finger into the offered mince pie to check if it's filled to the brim. If it feels like you're getting more pastry than filling, politely decline.
The second challenge is a bit trickier and takes more self-control. It's about recognising that what you do today adds up—and, more importantly, knowing that what you don't finish in 2024 will only slow you down in 2025.
On Monday, you'll get an email with a super-simple blueprint to keep you focused.
And if you’d like a bit more help—and to go deeper (like checking a mince pie)—keep reading.
You'll get an email Monday, it has a super simple blue print to keep you focused.
If you want a bit more help and to go deeper (like when you check a mince pie) keep reading.
If you know you need help, go to the bottom and book a call,

The art of "Banking the hard work"
Don’t Lose What We’ve Built
As the year draws to a close, it’s a perfect moment to reflect, celebrate, and plan for what’s next. Endings bring excitement for fresh starts but also carry the risk of leaving hard-won progress behind. This is especially true for our Productivity Pod.
We’re in the final week, and the results speak for themselves: websites launched, products created, processes optimised. These successes didn’t happen by chance. They came from redefining how we worked as a team.
The people of the Pod:
- Refined their definition of "done" – they got crystal clear on what success looked like.
- Changed habits – they embraced new ways of working and reinforced them daily.
- Retired old habits – they let go of what no longer served them.
Now comes the real challenge: cementing these changes. The momentum we've built needs to be celebrated and captured. Why? Because the next time a big project rolls around, the playbook we create now will guide the way.
To make this stick, the Pod should:
- Document their new habits and processes.
- Reflect on what made the changes successful.
- Commit to using this playbook as a springboard for the next challenge.
Think of it as preserving the enthusiasm of biting into that first mince pie of the season—a fresh start, fuelled by lessons learnt. Let’s not just move on; let’s move forward, equipped and energised.
