270 | Designing Your Year For 2021 | Dominick Quartuccio

Most people think they're living intentionally — then they realize 80% of their time is spent on things that don't move them forward. Dominick Quartuccio returns to help listeners turn 2020's lessons into fuel for genuine change in 2021. Instead of generic goal-setting, he offers structured reflection exercises to identify what truly mattered in a year that upended everyone's plans. The conversation centers on practical frameworks: reviewing calendars and photos to spot meaningful patterns, acknowledging mental health struggles without shame, and identifying one specific area of life ready for a "level up." Quartuccio distinguishes between drifting through life on autopilot versus making deliberate commitments anchored in presence.
