5 Ways to Reclaim Your Time Before the New Year
If you’re ending the year exhausted, you’re not alone.
Most founders spend November & December juggling year-end reporting, team reviews, client projects, & planning for next year, all while trying to find time to breathe.
Before you roll into 2026 feeling behind, here are five simple ways to reclaim your time & reset your operations:
1️⃣ Audit Your Calendar
Look at every recurring meeting.
Ask: Does this drive results, or does it just fill space?
If it’s not essential, shorten it or delete it.
2️⃣ Delegate Smarter
If a task repeats more than twice, it’s time to systemize or delegate it.
Your job isn’t to do everything, it’s to design how things get done.
3️⃣ Automate the Repetitive
Stop doing what technology can do better.
Client onboarding, reporting, reminders – automate them now so 2026 starts lighter.
4️⃣ Clarify Team Roles
Miscommunication costs hours.
Spend one meeting clarifying responsibilities, it will save you dozens next quarter.
5️⃣ Build Your 90-Day Roadmap
Start 2026 with focus. Choose 3 priorities that move your business forward & systemize around them.
This is exactly what we help founders do with The Days by Design Operating System™ build calm, clear operations that make every day more productive & intentional.
