Compass Word 2026

Compass Word of the Year. Vienna Coffee Talks Edition.

January gets noisy.
Goals everywhere.
Pressure everywhere.
Everyone suddenly convinced you need a new personality by February.

This is quieter.

We meet in a classic Vienna coffee house.
No vision boards.
No forced reinvention.
No pretending you have endless motivation and energy to meet all your goals by March.

Just coffee.
Conversation.
And one grounded decision.

In this session, you choose one compass word for the year ahead.

A direction you can actually live with.

What happens:
• You step back and look at how you want to decide and act this year.
• You use a simple mental model to test which word holds under pressure.
• You filter out noise, expectations, and other people’s priorities.
• You leave with one word that anchors you when things get uncomfortable.

Your compass word helps you:
• Say no faster.
• Decide with more confidence.
• Stay aligned when motivation drops.
• Course correct without overthinking everything.

One coffee house.
One word.
A year of clearer decisions.

You buy the coffee.
We set the direction.
