Episode 286 Your calendar is a prediction of your success.
Your Outlook calendar is evidence, not opinions. In this episode, we use three words, Stop, Continue, Start, to turn last year’s calendar patterns into a simple roadmap for 2026. You’ll learn how to identify time leaks, protect what worked, and schedule one small action that creates your next level. Key Takeaways Your calendar tells the truth about priorities, energy, and results “Stop” removes the biggest time leak that isn’t producing progress “Continue” protects the behaviors and blocks that created momentum “Start” is one small lever, scheduled now, that supports your 2026 goals If it isn’t on the calendar, it’s often just intention The 30-Minute Calendar Review (Quick Guide) Open Outlook and scan Jan–Dec from last year Notice patterns in: revenue activities, follow-up, internal meetings, and energy Decide what to Stop, Continue, and Start Schedule your Start action immediately Reflection Prompts for you What repeated on my calendar that didn’t create real progress What activities showed up during my best weeks What do I want to be true by the end of 2026 that my calendar does not support yet What is one block I will protect starting next week Do this today Spend 10 minutes in Outlook Month view. Pick one Stop, one Continue, one Start. Then schedule your Start action on the calendar before you close your laptop. If this episode helped, share it with someone on your team and do the Stop, Continue, Start review together. One honest calendar review can change the way a year feels. If you want, tell me your three: what are you stopping, continuing, and starting in 2026. Until Next time.
