There's one thing you can do if you don't want next year to repeat what happened to you in 2025,

and that is to change the way you plan for goals and execute on them.

Today, we're going to break down how to make 2026 your best year yet.

How do you set your goals so you actually achieve them this year?

I'm going to give you guys my step-by-step process that I've been doing for 15 years so you can steal my homework.

Because like TS Eliot said,

only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far they can go.

I always think about this line that Dave Chappelle said,

at any given moment, the one with the bigger dream wins.

And then he talked about this story where he always tries to control the dream.

And he said, I am a very powerful dreamer.

But I think the trick to that is you actually gotta know what you want,

otherwise you will be in somebody else's dream.

And so this big goal that you have today,

if you don't take the right steps to hit it,

You will never have the life that you want.

You will be living in a series of like maybes,

potentiallys, could-haves, should-haves and never actually achieved.

But my goal is that you steal my homework today and you don't live anywhere near that.

There's a couple concepts I want you to steal today.

One I call the goal gravity.

So this is the force that pulls everything in your business and life towards whatever your target is

because your goal actually means nothing if your habits stay the same.

And so you can't have,

first of all, small goals like T.S.

Eliot said, you need a big goal because that allows your priorities to sharpen.

It allows you, even if you miss,

and you probably will, you land somewhere you couldn't have reached playing at small.

So I want you to think about your goal as this big,

huge planet that's just pulling all of these things to it because the gravitational pull is so dramatic.

If you want to achieve something really tiny,

you're never going to have the gravity to do it.

So write down a goal,

but make it fucking big.

That's one.

Then a lot of times I realized you have to actually change your mindset to hit that goal.

That it's actually scary to write down those big,

huge, over-the-top things that most people will tell you you will never be able to achieve.

And so the fork in the road is

that most people never go big and they do what I call exploitation instead of exploration.

So exploitation is when you just kind of keep repeating what already works.

You iterate a little bit better,

a little bit better, a little bit better until your life kind of looks like everybody else's

because you've never done something really, really big.

You've just exploited the status quo.

Exploration is you only obsess on what might work that you've never done before.

You explore the unexplored.

Both have utility, but the catch is exploitation just gets you efficiency a little bit better.

Exploration is where you get breakthroughs.

And so right now, almost everything,

schools, jobs, nudge us towards being better exploiters, right?

Like memorize the right answer,

optimize for what's worked before,

don't question the playbook, definitely don't risk looking dumb.

And so they're trying to get you to refine, but not rethink.

And that's okay until you realize your whole business or life is built on habits you stopped questioning years ago.

And right now, I think the world is full of exploiters.

And so we have to get you to actually become one of the few explorers

if you want to live a life that most people will only ever dream of.

And this is the time to do it right now towards the end of the year.

So I thought I'd tell you how I set my huge goals.

And then I'm going to give you tricks from the biggest goal setters in the world

that I have learned and implemented in my life.

And it kind of starts with this five-step process.

So I've done this for,

I've got 15 years now.

Step one, I have learned to use the words impossible with the greatest caution.

This is actually von Braun who said that.

And I like to steal from my first step this idea from Jeff Bezos,

which is called regret minimization.

And how do you do that?

So regret minimization means that Bezos didn't set annual goals early on.

He set irreversible direction goals.

So what does that mean?

In 1994, he used what became known as this framework I'm going to tell you.

And he said, every time he thinks about a goal,

he asks himself, when I am 80,

will I regret not trying this?

His goal wasn't, I want to make a million dollars.

I want to build a company.

I want to do a startup.

It was, I want to build the world's most customer-centric company in the world.

I want to be the fittest person ever at 40.

Something that at 80, you will regret if you do not try.

That makes everything else sort of a branch on a tree, right?

So your first question and goal setting is like, what will you regret?

Not what do you want,

but what will your soul scream at you for not having tried?

The second thing I do is I say every year has a name.

So if you go back through my actual goal journal every year,

I name my year first because I think names are really powerful.

And if you name it, you can frame it.

And if you frame it,

then you can actually achieve it.

And so, for instance, I wrote down some of them for you.

And I'll actually, I'll show you what it looks like here.

2024, I called my full send year.

And after I write a name for my year,

I write a sentence on it,

100

which is what I think you should do next.

101

So that year for me,

102

it was the year I fully send it on being myself,

103

taking big swings on periods of sprints and rests and doing it my way with joy and fun and brilliance.

104

So what is your year?

105

In 2025, this year was the year of flow.

106

And that was more of what we want,

107

less of what we don't.

108

So in the past, you know,

109

I had written down, these were my words,

110

it was kind of fun to look at them today.

111

In the past, I had listened to too many others.

112

I'd done all the work myself.

113

I hadn't given the hard feedback in the moment.

114

I'd been the one pushed and shepherding everyone.

115

And this year I said, no more.

116

Now I am the one who gets to receive and have others push for me.

117

I'm no longer in a fight or flight and instead able to conduct the orchestra without playing every instrument.

118

So 2025 was my year of pros and flow.

119

And you saw that probably in my business.

120

I hired a bunch of pros to do things that I was doing every single aspect of it before.

121

And it was feeling like a little bit too much.

122

The year before that, I was okay with it.

123

I needed to do it all because I was fully sending it.

124

So this year for you, what is your year?

125

Name it, tell us in the comments.

126

What is one sentence example of how you want to see that year for you?

127

Then I like to steal this idea from Elon Musk for my third one.

128

He calls it first principles and backwards timelines.

129

So here's how he sets his goals.

130

Musk starts with what physics says is possible, not what society believes.

131

And I love this.

132

I say to my company right now too,

133

somebody will come to me and they'll say,

134

hey, we can't do X, Y, Z.

135

And I'll say, hold on,

136

I hate that word, can't, by the way.

137

Be careful if you ever say can't to yourself.

138

And I'll say, by can't,

139

do you mean, is it physically impossible,

140

aka against the laws of physics?

141

Is it illegal to do it,

142

AKA you'd go to jail.

143

Or is it contractually obligated?

144

You don't do it.

145

Otherwise, that's just a preference or a resource issue.

146

Can't only means it's illegal,

147

it's physically impossible, or it is against some sort of contractual terms we have written down in ink or blood.

148

And if it is not those three things,

149

then can't's not the right word.

150

Choosing not to could be the right word, but it's not can't.

151

And so Musk starts with physics.

152

That is first principle.

153

Then he sets a target outcome.

154

So he would say that reverse engineers every dependency backward to present.

155

Meaning if he says, I want to take a rocket to go to the moon,

156

I want to make life multi-planetary,

157

as he would say, then he would map, okay, I need rockets.

158

Then I might need reusable ones because it'd be way too expensive if we're not reusing them.

159

I need to land that rocket if I want to reuse it,

160

which means that I need to cut costs,

161

which means I need to manufacture these bad things,

162

which means I need this much capital or money.

163

So he turned the biggest goal,

164

multi-planetary, into the first constraint.

165

Now, how do you do this for you?

166

I would do the same thing.

167

First principles.

168

Let's say it's, I want to make a million dollars this year.

169

I would say, okay, maybe that's big enough.

170

Maybe it's not.

171

But first principles, I want to free my family financially from ever having to work again.

172

Maybe that's a million.

173

Maybe that's 10 million.

174

Okay.

175

Now work backwards.

176

Well, how much money do I need?

177

How much money do I spend?

178

What is my skill stack?

179

How long would it take me to get there?

180

Could I do it faster?

181

What mechanisms are real to get there?

182

Instead of just telling me what you want,

183

why don't you tell me what is the path to get the thing that you want?

184

Then I'm going to make you tell me what are you willing to sacrifice to get it.

185

Here's the truth about owning a business.

186

You work hard to build something real,

187

but without the right insurance,

188

one accident or mistake can cost you weeks of headaches,

189

lost revenue, and sleepless NXX Insurance gives small business owners instant online coverage so you can protect what you've built.

190

No long forms, no overpriced policies, no waiting around.

191

Just fast, simple protection designed for your business.

192

Policies start at $29 a month and you get an instant certificate of insurance

193

so you can win bigger contracts and operate like a true pro.

194

So whether you're a creator,

195

contractor, consultant, or Main Street operator,

196

Next keeps you covered because risk comes with ownership.

197

But getting protected shouldn't be one of them.

198

Check out nextinsurance.com slash Cody and protect what you've built today.

199

And so let's talk about how I do these goals in my life.

200

I like to categorize them.

201

I'm not so unidirectional as Elon Musk where I'm like multi-planetary or die.

202

I have a couple that are important to me.

203

My first one is always my relationship.

204

So this is literally what some of mine were last year.

205

It was we're happy and we argue well.

206

I think it's ridiculous to think you're not going to argue.

207

Just learn to argue fairly.

208

Walk.

209

I want to go on a walk every day together.

210

I think that's like a beautiful moment that we have.

211

I want to have, quote unquote,

212

our version of work-life balance,

213

which means we live in Austin for most of the year

214

and we have a house by the water and we can go there in aggregate for two to three months a year.

215

Then work.

216

That's the second most important to me after my relationship.

217

That means I want to hit a certain revenue target.

218

It means this podcast.

219

I wanted that to become a top 50 podcast in the world.

220

By the way, I wanted to have a bestselling book.

221

I literally wrote down a book that is a New York Times bestseller

222

and I sell a million copies and have a sold out launch date in person with 200 K people signed up.

223

And you know what else happened?

224

We fucking did it.

225

And so you write them down and that's fun to go look back and see what you did or didn't.

226

Travel.

227

You know, I said, I want to live somewhere with a view of the ocean for one to three months.

228

I did that in aggregate.

229

I wanted to go on a bucket list trip.

230

We did.

231

We went Nicaragua surfing.

232

I wanted to tour around the country, create a movement.

233

We did that with Main Street Millionaire.

234

Then I think you should have some fun in life.

235

So my last category is fun.

236

And so for me, that might be some silly things.

237

Even I wanted to feel more sexy and feminine.

238

Look at the shoulder.

239

See, look at that.

240

Nailing it.

241

I wanted to play with makeup and hair.

242

I'd actually never cared about any of this stuff,

243

but I thought I was like maybe becoming a bit too masculine.

244

So I thought, let's get back into this feminine nature.

245

I wanted to be sleepy and really well and wake up happy and refreshed and not anxious and thrilled with my life,

246

which means that I drink less now because that one makes me crazy.

247

I don't know about you guys.

248

Tell me in the comments.

249

I fucking love it, but I don't sleep well.

250

And then I really wanted to focus on my my enjoying the journey.

251

You know, I don't know if you ever feel like you've achieved some of the things you want in life,

252

but you don't enjoy the journey to achievement.

253

I didn't like that.

254

So I was like, I want to be really happy.

255

I want to feel like I have so much to accomplish,

256

but I'm enjoying it and thankful for it.

257

Okay.

258

So now you've got your buckets.

259

I like having three to five.

260

That's all I allow.

261

The next thing though,

262

you got to figure out what are the things you want to say no to say no to the things

263

that aren't a fuck.

264

Yes.

265

That was really big for me.

266

And so

267

my say no list included like things I wouldn't do with my mindset and things I wouldn't do with my health,

268

which comes back to health being no more alcohol.

269

I didn't nail that one.

270

You guys, I didn't nail it.

271

If you follow me on the internet, you probably know that.

272

I said, I wanted to do hard 75 again,

273

also did not nail that.

274

And then I wanted no more bread or processed food.

275

And that my friends, that's the tragedy that has absolutely not been accomplished.

276

So, okay.

277

Didn't nail all my goals last year,

278

but I nailed more of them than I did before.

279

Then I write a more of less of list.

280

What does this mean?

281

Well, every year I want to talk about the things

282

that I loved that I did and the things that I wish like,

283

well, like a little bit of less of that.

284

And so Warren Buffett kind of famously did this another way.

285

He called it the anti-goal method.

286

So how he sets goals is he uses a 525 rule,

287

which is he would say to you,

288

write 25 long-term goals, circle the top five of yours and avoid the other 20 at all costs.

289

And he believes that more goals equal more failure.

290

And I love this story.

291

You know, he was talking about his pilot

292

and his pilot was saying all these things that he wanted to accomplish this year.

293

And Buffett had him do this.

294

He said, write down these 25, circle the top five.

295

And he was saying, okay,

296

well, how are you gonna choose which one of these to do next?

297

And the pilot said, well,

298

I'm gonna do this one, this one, this one.

299

And he just took a big pen and just X'd out all 20 of his goals that weren't in the top five.

300

And said, if you're actually serious about the top five,

301

you have to be completely relentless of cutting the bottom 20.

302

This is called ruthless focus.

303

So every year I write a list of things I want more of in the year

304

and a list of things that I want less of.

305

Because the truth of the matter is you can't keep adding always.

306

The world requires subtraction.

307

This last year, some of mine were less respect seeking.

308

You try to get people to respect you who you honestly don't respect at all.

309

You get upset when somebody belittles your Your accomplishment, silly.

310

Partnership deals, I wanted less of those this year.

311

Like last year I did really,

312

really too bad partnership deals that cost me seven figures and time.

313

And I was like, I am so tired of being a workhorse for somebody else's reward.

314

So no new friends if they want partnerships.

315

And then chosen struggle.

316

Like, do you ever feel like you get off on hard things being the way?

317

You know, this year I was like,

318

no, no, I'm going to see what it's like to paddle with,

319

not against the current.

320

So those are my less of.

321

What are yours?

322

Then my more of.

323

It's like, I want to be more feminine.

324

I want to take big swings.

325

You know, I really focused on the fact

326

that I was going to try a few more big swings and sprints and then rests and then fun.

327

I talk a lot about serious things,

328

money, ownership, saving our country.

329

But I want to focus on the fact that we can have fun while we're doing it.

330

And so like some small things here,

331

even at the company this week.

332

We had this big event.

333

We had top tier attendance.

334

And so I was like, how about attendee award?

335

Well, really, Chris came up with attendee award because we all know my husband's funnier than I am.

336

And he's like, let's get 200 chicken tendies for the guy who drove attendance more than anybody else.

337

And we'll give him the annual attendee award.

338

And I was like, that's hysterical.

339

Let's do that.

340

So I want you to think about what is your year going to be?

341

Now, one of the final questions becomes,

342

how do you actually follow through on these?

343

Because your life is going to be your daily actions multiplied and compounded.

344

And so a long time ago,

345

I read a book by Sam Walton, the creator of Walmart.

346

It's an incredible book.

347

And he talks about obsessively measurable daily goals.

348

So how he sets his goals.

349

Well, I think you guys have your big goals already.

350

Now you have your more of less of list.

351

And instead of setting like a bunch of corporate objectives,

352

Walton would set daily numeric targets that everybody could see

353

so for his company

354

that might have been like sales per square foot inventory turnover store growth shrinkage reduction he believes everything improves

355

when everyone knows the score I think that's the same in business

356

and in life so the question for you is what are you tracking every day to make sure

357

that you actually know the scoreboard and one of the ways I do this that I'll show you right now

358

I use an app called streaks.

359

I'm not affiliated with it,

360

but I should be because I use it all the time.

361

And, um, and basically this app,

362

uh, shows you kind of like each day,

363

if you hit your streak or not on the small things you care about.

364

And so on here, it's like workout for me,

365

probiotic, sauna, sun, focus on something to do with revenue, blah, blah, blah.

366

Um, you can have one just like this.

367

He told this story that I loved.

368

If you haven't read the book, it's super good.

369

But Walton would basically talk about how he drove 100,000 miles a year with one goal,

370

to visit the stores and ask managers,

371

what is your goal today?

372

Not this quarter, today.

373

And then he would ask them often if they hit it.

374

How do they know if they're going to hit their goals or not?

375

So today, go follow my little chart for you because I know

376

that if you obsess on the thing you want every single day,

377

you're more likely to get it.

378

And so let's talk about some patterns here.

379

What have I seen from the greatest people in the world about setting goals?

380

There's really only five patterns.

381

And if you hit them,

382

you will achieve your goals more often.

383

Pattern one, they set far fewer goals than normal people.

384

Two or three directional goals,

385

thousands of executive decisions continuously over time.

386

Pattern two, their goals are binary, not incremental.

387

So make life multi-planetary, dominate microprocessors,

388

become the most customer-obsessed company on Earth,

389

become a mom, find a husband,

390

grow your business, binary goals.

391

They are qualitative in some ways,

392

but they lead to massive quantitative outcomes.

393

They will change the trajectory of your life.

394

Pattern three, they all use time horizons that scare normal people.

395

Bezos famously talked about seven-year flywheels.

396

Gates is known as a multi-decade architect.

397

Walton, he did daily execution,

398

but on decades long wins.

399

And then Musk does 20 to 50 year targets.

400

Pattern four, they don't confuse goals with tasks.

401

So they set direction and then build systems.

402

And five, they document and they track because what gets measured gets managed,

403

just like Peter Drucker says.

404

The great thing for you guys to know this year,

405

it takes 21 days to create a habit,

406

but I think it takes 90 days to create a totally different lifestyle.

407

Start your timer.

408

It is now day one.
