Notts Techfast - How To Kickstart An Awesome 2025 And Escape Living In 'Default' Mode

Paul Bailey aka #DesignThinkingDad will be guiding us through How To Kickstart An Awesome 2025 And Escape Living In 'Default' Mode!
It's that time of year again - when we reflect on the past and set ambitious goals for the future.
But let’s be honest, how did your New Year's resolutions fare last year?
Did they fizzle out by February?
Were your have high hopes derailed by shifting priorities or unexpected challenges?
Did you make time for the things that matter most?
What if 2025 could be different?
What if you could thrive instead of just surviving?
In this session, Paul Bailey (a.k.a #DesignThinkingDad) dives into why he abandoned traditional New Year's resolutions for a 'Design Thinking' approach to personal-change - treating life as a prototype, experimenting, and iterating continuously towards a better future.
What you’ll learn…
● Why once-a-year ‘big bang’ resolutions can’t compete with the power of continuous iteration.
● How to adopt mindsets that keep you focused and resilient in the face of adversity.
● A practical, four-step framework to reflect on your past, imagine your future, and set realistic, actionable goals that stick.
You don’t need to be a designer or consider yourself ‘creative’ to benefit from this session. Whether you’re a developer, analyst, engineer, or manager, Paul’s life experiment approach is accessible, impactful, and proven to help you stay laser-focused throughout 2025.
Make 2025 the year you step out of ‘default mode’ and start designing your best life yet. Join us for an inspiring and actionable session!
