Chris Evergreen here. Welcome to your daily goodwill
for Friday, January 16th, 2026. It's Friday,
and today's advice is about ending the week with
a little more peace and a little less mental
clutter. Here it is. Do a closeout and a carryover.
Closeout. Pick one small thing you can fully
finish today. Something that removes a loose
end, even a tiny one. An email thread. A quick
errand. Putting something away. Paying one bill.
Returning one call. Carryover. Pick one important
thing you're not finishing today and write down
the very next step for it. Not do the project.
Just open the file. Draft the outline. Schedule
the meeting. Make the list. This does two powerful
things. It gives you one clean win. And it keeps
your weekend from being haunted by unfinished
business. And here's your goodwill move for today.
Be generous with good job. Not fake praise. Real
recognition. Thanks for handling that. I appreciate
your follow -through. You made that smoother.
People remember who helped them feel capable
at the end of a long week. That's your daily
goodwill for Friday, January 16th, 2026. One
closeout, one carryover, then let yourself exhale.
Talk soon.
