I've got a question for you, Reader,

What Haven’t You Achieved This Year?

There’s that one thing. The thing that really matters.

You set out this year with ideas, plans, maybe even a bold goal. But life, work, and distractions got in the way. And now, we’re well into the year, and that thing—the one that could make a real difference—still isn’t done.

That’s why I set a mission this year: to help bring 100 ideas to life.

Not just talked about, not just half-started, but finished. Shipped. Out in the world where they belong.

If there’s something you’ve been meaning to do but haven’t, the next Productivity Pod starts next Friday.

It’s a focused space to get moving on what actually matters—so you don’t reach the end of the year still thinking, I wish I had…

Are you in?


Pro-Habits Deep Dive

The art of CELEBRATING

Finishing Deserves a Moment

The last Productivity Pod has wrapped up, and there’s a pattern that always stands out.

Some people finish and move straight on. No pause. No recognition. Just onto the next thing.

Others take a moment. They acknowledge the effort, the progress, and the shift from idea to done.

Why that moment matters

Finishing isn’t just about getting something off the list. It’s about reinforcing the habit of completion.

✔ When people pause to celebrate, they strengthen the ability to finish things in the future.
✔ Without that pause, the brain barely registers the win, making it easier to slip into a cycle of half-finished work.
✔ The act of celebrating—big or small—tells the brain, this mattered.

Celebration doesn’t have to be big

Some people mark the moment with a big announcement.

Others just take a quiet second to:
✔ Look back at where they started
✔ Share their progress with someone
✔ Do something simple—take the afternoon off, write a reflection, step away before diving into the next thing

One thing is clear—those who celebrate their wins tend to build momentum for the next one.

The next Productivity Pod starts next Friday.
For those still working on their thing, it’s another chance to bring it over the finish line and give it the moment it deserves.

March Productivity Pod

You need to join this week

What did you plan to start in January but it slipped through the cracks?

March is here, and those projects you meant to tackle? They won’t finish themselves.

But what if, by the spring bank holiday in May, you were looking back at a string of completed goals instead of another list of half-done tasks?

The 9-Week Productivity Pod kicks off March 21st at 8:15 AM—designed to help you turn plans into action and make measurable progress in your business.

✔ Finish what you start (no more lingering projects)
✔ Shift from procrastination to progress
✔ Build habits that keep you on track long after the pod ends

Bonus: 3 extra live coaching sessions to supercharge your momentum.
