Hi everyone! 👋 Welcome to the first episode of the #5minpodcast in 2026. At the beginning of the year, everyone talks about plans, goals, strategies, and fresh starts. But in this episode, I focus on something that silently destroys projects right from January. The biggest mistake is not poor planning or weak methodology. It’s starting the year by saying yes to everything. Optimism, pressure for fast results, and the feeling that “this year will be different” lead to overloaded portfolios, teams stretched beyond capacity, and projects that look great in January—but struggle soon after. This episode is a reminder that ambition without capacity is not a strategy. Sometimes, the most important decision at the start of the year is knowing when to say no. 🎧 Listen to the first episode of 2026 and start the year with focus, realism, and leadership: https://ricardo-vargas.com/podcasts/the-biggest-mistake-that-kills-projects-in-january/ Let’s build a sustainable 2026. 🚀 Ricardo #5minpodcast #ProjectManagement #Leadership #PortfolioManagement #Focus #2026
