Ready to stop coasting into December and start launching into January with real momentum? We sit down with Mark Hummel of Inspector Empire Builder to unpack how home inspectors can design a life-first vision and then build the business to match it. No secrets, no gimmicks—just the practical shift from technician thinking to CEO thinking and a system that turns goals into weekly action. We dive into the 1-3-5 framework—one, three, and five-year vision—so your annual targets tie to something bigger than revenue. Mark explains why clarity beats hustle, how to future pace with your “future self,” and what it takes to move from feast-or-famine to steady, predictable work. Whether you run solo or lead a growing team, you’ll hear how to stabilize your calendar, batch your report writing, use canned comments without losing quality, and choose a personal operating system that fits your brain—process maps for detail lovers or time blocks for energy-driven operators. The heart of this conversation is simple: your calendar should reflect your vision. We cover quarterly strategy reviews, monthly activity audits, and a 30-minute weekly reset that keeps you on track, plus the habits that fuel consistency—sleep, focused inputs, and purposeful learning instead of endless firefighting. If you’ve ever felt trapped by your business, this is your playbook for taking back control, creating time freedom, and punching past the bag to hit 2026 with energy and direction. If this resonates, follow the show, share it with a fellow inspector, and leave a quick review. Tell us: what do you NOT want your 2026 to look like? Your answer could be the clarity you’ve been missing.Check out our home inspection app at <a href='https://inspectortoolbelt.com/'>www.inspectortoolbelt.com</a> Need a home inspection website?
