Today marks the end of my one-hundred-forty-fifth week of working from home (mostly). Here are my takeaways from week one hundred forty-five:

• New year – The new year is here. It’s a fresh start. I’m really excited about what’s in store in 2023.
• Personal velocity – I’ve been thinking about this concept more as it applies to evaluation of individuals. I’ve also started to think about the personal velocity of people in my circle.
• High gear – The most successful people have a hidden gear, an extra one they don’t use all the time. They shift into high gear when they’re trying to create something new or take something to the next level. I feel like 2023 will be the year that many will kick into high gear.
• Layoffs – More layoffs are hitting the news, specifically in tech. Given the macro environment, some of these people will pursue entrepreneurship; it’s likely one of their best options now.

Week one hundred forty-five was short. Looking forward to next week!
