Every quarter, I check in on the business, such as metrics, strategy, goals, team alignment. That’s expected. But I also check in on my life. All of it.
I change the hand I brush my teeth with. I look at my calendar. I question what I eat for lunch. I clear out apps. I even ask if the way I drive to work still makes sense.
It’s a personal audit I’ve committed to doing every 90 days. It sounds small. But this rhythm is what keeps me awake in my own life.
I thrive with structure. I like knowing what’s next. But when structure becomes autopilot, I start to lose clarity.
We’re all guilty of keeping habits just because they feel familiar. Not because they still work. The same can happen in leadership. We run the same play, even when the field has changed.
Shaking up small things helps me spot bigger issues. It keeps me honest.
This reset isn’t fancy. It’s consistent and honest.
Changing how I brush my teeth isn’t about efficiency. It’s about reminding myself I can choose to do things differently.
When I reset personally, I lead better.
A stuck project starts to feel solvable. A hard conversation gets clearer. A new idea feels more obvious.
When my mind has space, I see the business more clearly. I bring sharper judgment. I connect dots faster. And I show up more present.
You just need a moment to ask: is this still working for me?
That’s it. That’s the shift. You don’t have to burn everything down. Just wake up a little more often.
Every 90 days I give myself full permission to rethink. My calendar. My systems. My patterns. Nothing’s off limits.
That reset keeps me human. And that keeps me effective.
