12 Topics To Learn More About in 2026

Happy New Year!

If you're joining me on my 2026 challenge, then you know that one of our monthly habits is to focus on one topic we want to learn more about each month. I wanted to share my list of 12 topics to learn more about in 2026, in case you're having a hard time figuring out what you want to learn more about this year. These topics are all intriguing to me and totally random! I did, however, pick some themed topics such as "all about the heart" in February in honor of Valentine's Day, because I am a romance novelist after all, and very sappy! Copy my topics or pick your own, but make sure you have fun learning something new! I originally came up with this idea after watching a reel from this Instagram creator who talked about how she creates her own personal "curriculum". She consumes content she is interested in and focuses heavily on learning new things and improving her life. It was so neat and motivating, so I tagged her above if you want to check that out!

There is a printable graphic below if you'd like to use it!

12 Topics I Want To Learn About In 2026:
