Episode notes
Year Planning With Quintiles
- Dividing the year into five quintiles offers a more nuanced way to plan than the traditional four quarters.
- Each quintile has its own focus and flavor rather than a strict checklist-based plan.
Flexible Yearly Reading Plans
- Pick a smattering of books for each quintile rather than planning exact orders.
- Keep your reading list fluid to match your mood and unexpected life events.
Q1 Fresh Start Energy
- Quintile one feels like a fresh start with global yearly reflections and goal setting.
- Planning happens in seasons: Q5 and Q1 are for setup; others focus more on execution.
