Tax Season Kicks Off Jan. 26 as Many Filers Eye Bigger Refunds in 2026

The 2026 tax filing season officially begins on January 26, when the IRS starts accepting and processing individual tax returns for the 2025 tax year. Most Americans must file and pay any taxes owed by April 15 to avoid penalties and interest. This year, many filers could see larger refunds thanks to tax changes passed under President Donald Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill," which adjusted withholding rules and expanded certain tax breaks.

The Breakdown:

Opening day: IRS begins processing returns on January 26
Deadline reminder: April 15 remains the cutoff for most taxpayers
Refund boost: Updated tax rules could mean higher refunds or lower tax bills for many households

The Angle: For millions of Americans, tax season isn't just paperwork—it's a cash-flow moment. With refunds potentially rising this year, early filers may feel the impact of recent tax changes sooner rather than later.

The Power of Leverage: Time, Money, and Code

Leverage allows you to achieve outsized results without working harder. Wealthy and successful people excel at using leverage—hiring talent (time leverage), investing (money leverage), and using technology (code leverage) to multiply their efforts.

Identify one area where leverage can dramatically increase your impact. Delegate tasks that drain your energy. Automate repetitive work with software. Invest in tools, assets, and relationships that scale. Leverage is the secret ingredient behind exponential growth.

DAY 7 - TAKE ME THERE: Planning Your Trip

When to go: May-October offers warmest weather (65-75°F), but the Azores are green year-round thanks to microclimates and frequent rain. June-August is peak season; September is ideal—warm water, fewer crowds. Getting there: Fly into Ponta Delgada (PDL) on São Miguel. Direct flights from Boston (4.5 hours), Toronto, and major European cities. Inter-island flights and ferries connect the archipelago.

Budget: $80-120 daily for mid-range (accommodations, meals, car rental). Rent a car—it's essential for exploring. Must-do's: Sete Cidades viewpoint, Furnas hot springs and cozido lunch, whale watching (98% success rate), Gorreana Tea tour. Pro tips: Pack rain jacket and layers—weather changes fast. Download offline maps. Learn basic Portuguese—English isn't universal outside tourist zones. The islands reward slow travel; don't try to see everything. Pick 2-3 islands maximum. Respect marine protected areas—the Azores are serious about conservation. This isn't Instagram tourism; it's real adventure travel for people who want nature untamed.

That's your edge for today. Now go claim it.
