In this post-Halloween episode, Darin shares a lesson inspired by watching his kids sort their candy after trick-or-treating. What initially looked like chaos became clarity as they organized their candy into categories — keep, trade, and toss. He encourages listeners to apply the same approach to their business as the year winds down: dump out all tasks, projects, and commitments, then sort through them to clarify what matters most. Focus on revenue-moving priorities, delegate or automate the rest, and eliminate the busy work taking up mental and calendar space. Instead of over-planning and dragging tasks into the new year, take quick action now to gain momentum and finish strong.
