OUTKAST COLLECTIVE™ 2026 PLANNING WORKSHOP
Design Your Entire Year In a Day
Workshop Agenda
  • Set annual goals
  • Set clear life + business anchors for 2026
  • Design constraints so growth stays sustainable
  • Convert annual goals into executable quarters
  • Break quarters into real projects + weekly action
  • Install a system for weekly, monthly, and quarterly reviews
You leave with an operating system for your business that creates clarity, momentum, and sustainable growth all year long.
NOW LET'S GET INTO THE 2026 PLAN
Changing How You Operate
This is not about forcing productivity.
It's about:
  • Redesigning how you operate
  • Creating massive amounts of clarity
  • Reducing decision fatigue
So you can achieve the business outcomes you want.
Goals don't fail. Unclear and unstructured businesses do.
PART 1: THE ANNUAL RESET
(REFLECT → REALIGN)
Pause Before We Build
Before we plan, we reset.
Self-Reflection Prompts:
How do you want your life to feel different in 2026?
How do you want your role as a founder to change?
How do you want your week to feel?
What do you not want to be doing anymore?
What do you want your business to enable, not just earn?
Different Goals Require Different Systems
  • Wanting more and wanting less
  • Ambition and simplicity
  • Growth and sanity
Every next level of your life demands a different version of you, and the systems to create it.
People don’t fail because of a lack of discipline.
They fail because they're using the wrong system for the goals they've chosen.
PART 2: ANCHORS
(YOUR LIFE & BUSINESS GOALS)
The system you run must match the outcome you want.
If it doesn’t, friction, burnout, or stagnation is guaranteed.
Everything Hangs Off Two Anchors:
Life Goals =
1-2
Business Goals =
1-2
Too Many Goals = Diluted Focus
Your Life Anchors
(Your Life Goals for 2026)
  • Short 1 Year Goal
  • Specific enough to guide your decisions
Your Business Anchors
(Your Business Goal for 2026)
  • Short 1 year goal that supports your life goal
  • One primary success/failure metric
  • Intentionally narrow

In Notion → Anchors Section
  • 1 Life Goal (max 2)
  • 1 Business Goal (max 2)
PART 3: CONSTRAINTS = FREEDOM
Constraints Create Freedom
Energy is limited
Time is limited
Attention is limited
Structure protects creativity
1. Energy is limited
You don’t have unlimited creative, emotional, or cognitive capacity
Some work takes more energy than other work
If you ignore this, burnout looks like “lack of discipline”
Constraints protect your energy
2. Time is limited
This is why:
  • Quarters matter
  • Weekly tasks are capped
  • Not everything makes the cut
3. Attention is limited
This means:
  • Every open loop steals your focus
  • Too many projects = slow progress everywhere
  • Switching contexts kills productivity
Constraints force:
  • Fewer priorities
  • Clear sequencing/order
  • One “main thing” per quarter
4. Structure protects creativity
This is the most misunderstood point.
It means:
  • Creativity thrives when decisions are already made
  • Disorganization feels flexible, but it actually drains your energy
  • Structure removes decision fatigue
So instead of asking:
“What should I work on today?”
Your system already answers that for you.
You no longer have to decide or think. That’s freedom.
DefineYour Constraints
In Notion ↓
  • Add notes under Constraints
  • Optional: create a project tagged Eliminate / Automate / Delegate
Constraint Prompts:
  • What do you love doing?
  • What drains you?
  • What must be eliminated, automated, or delegated in Q1?
My Examples:
  • Taking sales calls
  • Working with too many 1-1 clients (switched to group model)
PART 4: ANNUAL MAP QUARTERS
Annual Goals Alone Are Too Abstract
  • Annual goals inspire
  • Quarters are bets, not promised outcomes
  • Projects execute
Why Q1 Is Different
  • Q1 = Setup, clarity, foundation for the rest of the year
  • Q2–Q4 build on that foundation
If Q1 doesn’t work, Q4 doesn’t matter.
Quarterly Planning Rules
  • 3–5 priorities max per quarter
  • Q1 gets the most attention
  • Later quarters can be placeholders
Fill Yours In Now:
In Notion → Quarterly Plan
  • Break annual goals into 4 quarters
  • Fill Q1–Q4 by creating new items for each
  • Tie each priority back to an Anchor
PROJECTS
Why Big Goals Fail
  • Goals fail because no one defines the work
  • Goals without aligned projects and tasks are just dreams
The 3 Project States
Every project lives in one of three states:
  • Clarity - Do I know what's required on the path to achieving my goals?
  • Knowledge - Do I know HOW to do what's required to achieve my goals?
  • Execution - Do I have an exact process/strategy for achieving my goals?
Fill Yours In Now:
In Notion → Projects
  • Create 1–3 Q1 projects
  • Assign:
  • Quarter
  • Phase
  • Outcome (1 sentence)
This is the singular system that creates massive clarity in your business. Follow it religiously.
WEEKLY EXECUTION (TASKS)
Your Calendar Tells the Truth
  • Tasks without projects = busywork
My Dream Week:
  • Script & Film 1 YouTube Video
  • Write 5 emails
  • Produce 5 short-form videos
  • Run weekly workshop for clients
  • Handle Client Support
  • Daily Muay Thai Training
Fill Yours In Now:
In Notion → Weekly Execution
Add one real upcoming week
5–10 tasks max
Every task must be linked to a project
KPI's (REMOVE EMOTION)
Feelings Lie, KPI's Don't
  • KPIs (Key performance indicators) tell you when to stay the course vs when to pivot
  • Fewer metrics = clearer decisions
Fill Yours In Now:
In Notion → KPIs
Add 5–8 KPIs
Baseline + target
Q1 FOCUS & THEMES
Q1 Has a Theme
  • Q1 priority (clarity, proof, growth etc.)
  • Themes reduce decision fatigue
Monthly Focus:
  • January focus
  • February focus
  • March focus
This tells you what not to focus on.
Fill Yours In Now:
In Notion
  • Enter Q1 theme
  • Enter monthly focus areas
CONSISTENCY (FUTURE SUCCESS):
  • Weekly check-in (Sundays)
  • Monthly KPI review (Last day of the month)
  • Quarterly reset to plan your future quarters, projects and tasks
COMMITMENT
You now have a system that makes decisions for you.
This plan gives you:
  • Direction
  • Structure
  • Feedback
  • Clarity
Let the plan do it's job, focus only on execution.
Now let's fucking win!!! 💪🏼
