The end of the year fills most men’s heads with new goals and dreams but sadly few do enough thinking, reenvisioning and rethinking. What if the activity before we leave 2025 is to become more instead of getting more by the end of this year point? I find it interesting how each year we get into the same rut — the pressure, the plan making, the promise making — but what a man’s life changes with is not what he resolves to do January 1st. It is what he resolves upon before the end of December 31st. Here are 10 things that you can do before we leave 2025 and plunge into the year 2026 with vigor, perception, and self-respect — the things backed up by the facts of science, wisdom and practicalities. 1. Audit Your Life, Not Just Your Year Before you set new goals, sit with your journal and ask: What drained my energy this year? What made me feel truly alive? This kind of reflection helps you align your direction with your truth. 📘 Inspired by : “ The Mountain Is You ” by B...

The world is moving fast.
Trends change every second.
Everyone seems to be achieving, moving, building, becoming.
And maybe, just maybe, you’re sitting there wondering—
“Am I being left behind?”
Let me tell you something softly, but clearly:
You are not behind.
You are exactly where you're meant to be.
Life is not a race—it’s a rhythm.
🕰️ Trust the Timing That Was Meant for You
We’ve been conditioned to rush. To feel that if we’re not already there, we’re failing.
But as The Bhagavad Gita says:
“You have the right to work, but never to the fruit of work.”
You are on your path. Even when it feels still.
Even when it feels slow.
Stop rushing toward a future that hasn’t arrived.
Be in the present moment. Be in the lesson. Be in the process.
Every season in your life has purpose—even the ones that feel like pause.
📚 Keep Feeding Your Inner World
While the world runs fast, you have a secret weapon:
You can slow down and go deep.
Read books that stretch your mind.
Dive into literature, philosophy, psychology.
Not to become someone else—but to return to who you truly are.
As James Clear wrote in Atomic Habits:
“Every action you take is a vote for the type of person you wish to become.”
Reading isn’t just information—it’s transformation.
Every page teaches your mind to listen, reflect, grow.
💬 Be Proactive With Presence, Not Pressure
Growth is not just what you do alone. It’s how you show up for others.
Speak kindly.
Share what you’ve learned.
Inspire with your life, not just your words.
As Robin Sharma reminds us in The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari:
“The purpose of life is a life of purpose.”
So make your purpose to lift, to lighten, to lead—even quietly.
🌱 Where You Are Is Sacred
You’re not late. You’re not lost.
You’re in the part of your story where the roots are growing deep.
Others may bloom now. Let them.
Your season is coming—and when it does, it will be real, grounded, and yours.
Until then:
Keep learning.
Keep loving.
Keep living fully, right here in the now.
“You are not behind. You are becoming "
