The end of the
year is traditionally a time to look back and reflect. One way to reflect is to
evaluate popular blog posts. I have been taking time to reflect on the year
that was and as part of that reflection I have flipped back through the 150

of your favorite Lean posts from 2025? Any recommendations for next year?
