Hi friend,
There is a lot to be thankful for right now.
It’s easy to feel weighed down by the headlines: the economy, politics, and the complexities of our physical and digital security. But the truth remains: we are here. We have the opportunity to make a positive impact in the time we have.
Whether it’s loving our families, building a business that solves real problems, or acting as intrapreneurs for the common good within our organizations, our work matters.
A Thought Experiment
If you found out today that you had only 10 years, one year, or even one month left to live, what would your bucket list look like? Would it include:
- Asking for (or granting) forgiveness?
- Visiting that one place you’ve bookmarked for a decade?
- Finally reading that specific book or hiking that specific trail?
- Simply watching the sunrise on a quiet beach?
Why wait? I want to challenge you to write those things down right now and carve out space in your 2026 calendar to actually do them.
Your 3-Step Action Plan:
- The List: Write your life’s bucket list in a notebook (analog feels more real!).
- The Calendar: Allocate specific time in 2026 (or as soon as possible) to tackle at least one item.
- The Reply: Reply to this email and tell me one item on your list. I’d love the inspiration, and I’m happy to share one or more of mine if you’re interested.
I wish you a successful week ahead, one that includes crossing at least one meaningful thing off your list.
Thank you for taking the time to read and reflect.
Until next time,
Alex Rășcanu
