Its never too late. Until it eventually is.
And with only 61 days left this year -
This is how i'm turning November into New-vember.
As a time for creative reinvention and evolution.
A sandbox for new ideas and reinvigoration.
By November we are tired.
But that doesn't mean we have to be stale.
When i'm stuck for freshness - I get obsessed with success.
By soaking up tons of Documentaries and Biogs.
Researching how other successful entrepreneurs embraced innovation, is my prelude to inspiration.
But All That Inspiration Is Useless:
Unless you use it to do something uniquely or better.
So ask:
What achievements resulted from taking a risk or trying something different than the norm?
I write down approaches I used that felt uninspired and attempt to reinvent them.
The Proof Is In The Pudding:
How would it feel to end the year with a major win?
One thing you may want to do is draft a “big, juicy promise” to yourself - and stay very accountable.
Example: By December 1st, I will have...
Then share it with a trusted colleague or mentor.
Forwards!
Keeping the energy flowing solves the problem of losing momentum and feeling uninspired.
One of the ways I do this is to:
Identify Energy Drains: I write down what has been draining my energy or holding me back.
Then brainstorm bold or unexpected ways to tackle it.
Whenever breaking from conventions...
Its never easy being different.
I often have to remind myself that:
Testing and risk are always part of growth.
Innovators didn’t wait for the perfect timing; they seized opportunity with urgency.
Use inspiration as your launchpad today.
Self-Coaching Exercise:
Ever tried this?
First write down every objection or fear you have about taking a risk.
It only works if your honest; Then: Flip the Script:
For each, write a counterpoint inspired by a famous innovator who faced similar doubts and succeeded.
Then Just Add You.
It's not about copying others - its about using their stories to help inspire your own.
And reinvigorating motivation.
By completing these little exercises, I hope you’ll gain clarity and transform November into a time of strategic innovation.
LFG people !
