Chris Evergreen here. Welcome to your daily goodwill
for Friday, January 9th, 2026. It's Friday, which
means some folks are running on fumes trying
to finish the week strong, and some folks are
already mentally on the couch. Either way, today's
advice is about closing the week without dragging
it into the weekend like a suitcase with a broken
wheel. Here it is. Do a Friday finish in 10 minutes.
Set a timer for 10 minutes and do three quick
things. First, write down what's still unfinished.
Just a short list. Get it out of your head. Second,
pick one item and decide the next action. Not
finish it, just what's next. Third, choose one
small win you can complete today. Something you
can actually cross off. That's it. When your
brain has a plan, It relaxes. When it doesn't,
it keeps running in the background like an app
draining your battery. And here's a tiny bonus
that helps your mood. Name one good thing from
this week. Not the biggest thing. Just one good
thing. A moment. A laugh. A meal. A little progress.
Your brain needs proof that it wasn't all stress
and chaos. Your goodwill move for today... Give
someone a clean, simple compliment. Hey, you
made that easier. I appreciate your patience.
Thanks for showing up. Those hit different at
the end of a long week. That's your daily goodwill
for Friday, January 9th, 2026. Close the week
gently. You deserve a weekend that feels like
rest, not recovery. Talk soon.
