My 2025 In & Out List (and a free template)

What do you want more of in your life? And less of? Inspired by Julia Rothman's More/Less list.

Is it too late to share this list? It's been in my drafts for a minute and I forgot to publish it.

I don't expect my "In & Out" lists to change dramatically every year, but I still want to make it a tradition to review and update them.

This year, as I slowly learn to use new digital tools, I'm sharing a downloadable template. I hope you'll like it and use it!

I love to see how the "In" list grew while the "Out" list remained mostly the same. I like the idea that I might have ditched a few bad habits.
