Due to the bad weather preventing me getting the car off the drive since about New Year’s Eve, I’ve taken to walking and using public transport quite a lot.
I’ve been amazed by the number of people I’ve heard referring to the “Christmas Break” and saying things like....”I’m glad it’s over!” and “I don’t miss it!”
Bearing in mind the tremendous build up, the amount spent by us all, the welcome holiday with the family, I ask myself “Why?”. I know Christmas can’t go on forever but surely there’s more to the whole thing than a post Christmas series of regrets?
Times are bad for many, at the moment, both commercially and personally, as money is tight and jobs are lost but based on the premise, that there are no problems, only opportunities, we should feel reflective, renewed and energised after Christmas.
Without putting aside the real reason for Christmas, which we shouldn’t forget, January presents a time for fresh thinking, renewed energy and extra challenges. This time of year, as always, even 2010 years ago, presents a fantastic opportunity, so let’s not, as then, waste it through disbelief and doubt.
It’s “SALE TIME!”..... let’s be creative, forward thinking and plan for the future. It’s a time when we should not just look after ourselves but others, too. Training plans can be part of that ethic.
Develop a “20-20” vision in “20-10”.
