Ah, the week between Christmas and New Year’s Day. It feels like the world (almost) stops, for one golden week. Texts, emails, and calls drop off in frequency. Calendars have open space. Demands lighten up.
Indeed, it would be tempting to float through these blissful days without a care in the world.
But wait. What if there’s a better way?
What if there’s a path that combines rest, reflection, and renewal? How could you create a deeply satisfying week? One that would end your year on a high note and help you start strong in the new year?
Our values – what’s important to us – can light the way. What’s most important to you? Let that guide your plan for this week. So that when you wake up on New Year’s Day, you feel deep satisfaction in how you chose to use this time.
Anything you’re eager to be and do in the new year, you can start today. Take a small step. And then another. And so on.
Therefore, here’s what’s on my plan for this golden week:
* family and friends: savoring time with loved ones
* writing: creating content for LinkedIn and a new book idea
* business: reflecting on this year and planning for the next
It’s worth noting that there are a few other items on my plan. However, in the interest of prioritizing and not creating a laundry list that will be more exhausting than refreshing, I limited the list to three.
What’s on your plan for this week?
How will you spend this quieter, golden time that comes once a year?
