Most leaders plan their business year in detail—and wing their personal life.
In this solo episode of Spartan Leadership, Josh Kosnick shares his annual planning playbook: how to set a 10-year “lighthouse” vision, reverse-engineer it into a 3-year picture, and then execute through focused 90-day sprints. He walks through the same process for your family life so you can stop drifting and start living on purpose.
You’ll learn why most New Year’s resolutions fail, how to choose the one goal you’d be furious not to hit in 2026, and how mission and core values actually become filters for decisions—not just words on a wall. Then Josh turns the lens to your marriage, your kids, and your home life so you’re not just building a bigger business, but a stronger family.
In this episode, Josh covers:
- Why most people never do real annual planning
- How to set a 10-year “lighthouse” vision for your business
- Turning that into a 3-year picture and 1-year targets
- The one goal you’d be mad at yourself for missing in 2026
- Why your brain needs 90-day sprints, not vague yearly resolutions
- How mission and core values filter decisions and protect culture
- The danger of aspirational values (hello, Enron)
- Using the same framework for your family and marriage
- Creating family core values and raising kids with a clear standard
-How to prevent “we just grew apart” from ever being your story
If you’re ready to stop reacting to your calendar and start leading it—for your company and your family—this episode is your sign to sit down, plan, and commit.
