365 days of meetings, errands, and weekends that blur into one another. By end of the year you can't say what happened.
Then build the rest of the year around it. The errands, the appointments, the meetings, and the deadlines all arrange themselves once the big one is set.
Choose a commitment big enough that no matter what else the year holds, that's the one you'll remember. Then hang it on a wall where you have to look at it.
One email a quarter. If there's nothing worth saying, we don't send.
