Yearly Themes: How I Set Resolutions That Can't Fail

In this episode, we explore the concept of Yearly Themes, a flexible productivity principle popularized by CGP Grey and the Cortex Podcast.Instead of setting rigid goals (like "go to the gym every day") that shatter the moment you miss one, a Theme acts as a compass to help you "steer the ship". We discuss why themes are superior for habit forming, how to conduct a Year in Review, and why we are pivoting our creator businesses in 2026.We also dive deep into the reality of building a creator product versus a community, and why the "marketing funnel" is better visualized as a series of opulent rooms.Connect with me onLinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/vfarkasch/Instagram https://www.instagram.com/orbitforcreators/Music from Uppbeat https://share.uppbeat.io/orbit-for-creatorsSubtitles made with Magic Subtitles https://www.mralextech.com/magicsubtitle/2tj0zThumbnail tested on on ClickPilot https://clickpilot.app?aff=nDNrp
