Find the story

Answer quickly. The small details are usually more useful than the major milestones.

  • When did they quietly show up for you?
  • What ordinary ritual feels like them?
  • What phrase do they always say?
  • When did they make a hard day lighter?
  • What have they taught the family without announcing it?

Turn it into a toast

Choose one answer, name the quality it proves, and connect that quality to the year ahead.

  • What happened?
  • What did they do?
  • What quality did that reveal?
  • Who else in the room recognizes it?
  • What do you wish for them next?

Put it into practice

Turn the plan into words.
