Lara Guevara says founders should pick one thing to fix in January instead of trying to change everything at once. Choose one constraint like inventory or cash flow, define success with a single metric, and build one weekly habit to drive it.

Happy New Year. And here's an advice for you. You don't need to overhaul everything on January 1st. You need one thing, one system to build, one problem to solve, and one goal to hit. I've watched founders burn out trying to transform everything. In January. They tried to change too much too fast and by February they are back to old habits. The founders who actually change, they pick one thing built in into habit and let it comp. Then they add another. Remember these three simple steps. Choose one constraint, either inventory, lead time, supplier, performance, or cash. 2. Define the win in one metric. And lastly, install one weekly habit that drives it. Comment your 1 thing for January Keep it simple. Keep it real.
