This Is Your Year to
Finally Feel Unstuck

If you've set goals before and they didn't stick, the problem wasn't your commitment. No tool has ever asked you what's actually been in the way — until now. Best Year Yet® is the 40-year guided reflection process used in Fortune 100 companies. Ten questions that surface not just what you want, but what's been holding you back. One plan built entirely from your own answers.

If this sounds familiar, you're in the right place.

"You've set the same goals two, three, maybe four years in a row — and somewhere around February, they fall away."

"You've just been through something big — a job loss, a divorce, a retirement, a move — and you're still figuring out who you are on the other side."

"You're achieving by most measures, but there's a persistent, quiet sense that something important is missing."

"You know what you want to change. But every time you try, life gets in the way — and you end up exactly where you started."

"You've tried planners, apps, coaches, and January resets. Something clicks for a few weeks, and then it doesn't."

"You're starting something new — a business, a role, a chapter — and you want to actually get it right this time."

"You've been running hard. You're just not sure you've been running in the right direction."

"You're ready for something different. You just don't know where to start."

The problem in every one of these situations is the same — and it's not what you think.

Not another planning app. The only one that asks why you've been stuck.

It starts where others stop

Most goal tools ask: What do you want? BYY asks that too — but then it asks the question no other system does: What's actually been in the way? Naming your real barriers, before you plan anything, is what makes the difference between a plan you follow and one you abandon.

40 years. Thousands of organizations. Now yours.

The BYY methodology wasn't built in a garage. It was developed over four decades of real organizational performance work — used in Fortune 100 companies, with world-class athletes, and across 44 countries. This is not a startup experiment. It's a proven system that has been refined through thousands of real implementations.

Your answers. Not ours.

You don't fill in a template. You answer 10 questions — and the plan that comes out is built entirely from your own wisdom. BYY provides the framework. You provide the answers. That's why it holds: because you built it yourself.

Here's exactly what happens in your first session.

1

Envision

You'll picture the results that would make this your best year — health, career, relationships, whatever matters most right now.

2

Identify

You'll choose one area of your life to shift this year, and name what that shift would actually look like.

3

Feel the Stakes

You'll surface why this matters to you — the emotional stakes that make follow-through feel real, not optional.

4

Name Your Barriers the step that changes everything

You'll surface what's actually been in the way — not the surface-level excuses, but the real patterns, fears, and beliefs that have derailed you before. This is the step no planner or app asks you to complete, and it's the single biggest reason BYY works when other systems haven't.

5

Celebrate

You'll acknowledge what you achieved last year and what you don't want to repeat. You'll see your own momentum.

6

Your One-Page Plan

Your Top 10 goals. Your personal guideline for the year. One focused page you actually believe in.

Here's what your first 10 minutes looks like.

Real people. Real years.

"After 22 years in the same role, I was facing retirement and had no idea who I was outside of work. Best Year Yet was the first process that asked the right questions — not just what I wanted next, but what had been holding me back from even imagining it. I left with a plan I actually believed in for the first time in years."

"I'd tried every system — journals, apps, coaches, accountability partners. I'd make progress for a month and then fall back into the same patterns. Best Year Yet was different because it made me name the actual pattern that kept stopping me. That single step was worth the whole year."

Lisa Goodwin Entrepreneur · Austin, TX
★★★★★

"I run a team of 40 people and I've used BYY for myself and with my leadership team for three consecutive years. The methodology works because it doesn't impose a framework — it surfaces yours. Every year, the plan is different because the person doing the work has changed. That's what makes it real."

Questions before your breakthrough?

What's the free tour? How is it different from the paid app?

The free tour is a guided 10-minute preview of the Best Year Yet® experience — no account or payment required. You'll work through the opening reflection questions and get a feel for the process and coaching style. The paid subscription gives you the full workshop, your personalized one-page plan, the complete audio coaching library, monthly live learning sessions, and year-long support and accountability tools.

I've tried planners and apps before. Why is this different?

Most tools focus on listing tasks. Best Year Yet focuses on clarity first — helping you understand what you actually want before you plan how to get there. When you know your "why," the "how" becomes clear. That's why our users stick with it.

What if I've always struggled with follow-through?

That's exactly who we built this for. The problem usually isn't willpower — it's having a vague plan or goals that don't really resonate. We help you get crystal clear on what matters, so following through feels natural, not forced.

I've been through something big recently — a job loss, a divorce, a retirement. Is this the right time?

Actually, transitions are exactly when Best Year Yet is most powerful. When your normal structure is gone, the questions BYY asks — What do you actually want? What's been in the way? What would make this your best year? — hit differently. You're not defending the old plan anymore. You're free to answer honestly. Most people who've gone through a major transition say it was the most clarifying BYY session they've had.

Can I cancel anytime?

Absolutely. No guilt, no pressure. Cancel anytime with no questions asked. We also offer a 30-day money-back guarantee — because we want you to feel completely comfortable giving yourself this fresh start.

That said, here's what we've learned: Users who dedicate just 90 days to working their Best Year Yet plan are significantly more likely to successfully complete their full year's plan. Real transformation takes a little time, and we're confident that if you give it that commitment, you'll see results that make you want to stay.

How does accountability work?

Best Year Yet has been transforming lives for over 40 years, and we've built an active, thriving community around the power of accountability. You'll have access to hundreds of trained and certified life coaches who understand the BYY methodology, plus built-in features that help you create your own personal accountability team — whether that's friends, family, colleagues, or fellow BYY members. You're never alone on this journey.

You've been trying on your own. This is what it looks like with the right foundation.

Whatever brought you here — a transition, a plateau, a year that fell short — Best Year Yet starts with what's actually been in the way. Then helps you build the year you've been trying to have.
