Most entrepreneurs rush into January with fresh goals, but little reflection. In this solo episode, David Schaub (founder/host of the WNY Entrepreneur Podcast; mastermind facilitator; publisher of Buffalo & Rochester Real Producers) walks through the simple year-end process he uses to realign life and business before he plans anything new. It’s the exact framework he leans on while juggling multiple ventures and a family-first philosophy.

David shares the categories he reviews, the questions that actually create clarity, and how he maps the next 90 days so momentum is focused—not frantic. If your calendar feels full but your direction feels fuzzy, this one’s for you.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

✅ Why most entrepreneurs rush ahead without slowing down, and what that’s costing you

✅ The exact categories David reviews each year to avoid drifting (personally and professionally)

✅ Why goals aren’t enough, and the reflection questions that create real clarity

✅ How reflection compounds growth, celebrate wins, learn from misses, and stop repeating patterns

✅ Why planning the next 90 days beats obsessing over 5–10 year visions

✅ How to design a year that fits your current season of life (not fight it)

✅ David’s simple December process for running life and business with intention

Reflection isn’t “nice to have”, it’s the only way to make sure your goals match your values, capacity, and season. David’s cadence helps you get honest, set tighter targets, and build a 90-day plan that actually survives contact with reality. (And yes, you can run multiple ventures without running yourself into the ground.)
