How to prepare....
There's only 5 months until the end of 2024. How do you want your life to be different by the stroke of midnight on the 31st of December?
Over the next few weeks plenty of people will be heading off to warmer climes and reminiscing by the pool- talking about their dreams and ideas to new friends over brightly coloured drinks.
For others, they might not have the luxury of that downtime right now- just remember if you're one of these people that you need to schedule in some rest. If you don't plan it, then your body will decide when you need to take it and this could come at an inconvenient time.
So whether you're dreaming about the life that could be, or fantisizing about a life where you could partake in the August power down make sure you make a plan to achieve those dreams thereby turning them into goals.
Maybe just write them down first of all. No matter how ludicrous they seem. Then... what steps would you need to take to get there. It doesn't have to be exact.
Then TAKE ACTION.
Most people never get this far.
5 months. Less than half a year. It's not too daunting. How much can you change in the next 5 months? You don't have to wait for September- start now. If you expect your September will be busy as it is for so many why not get a head start now?
It can be difficult to think outside the box when everything inside the box is moving at such a pace you can barely turn to glance outside.
However you spend your summer, make sure you enjoy it. If you're relaxing- fully commit to doing so. Relaxation is not something to feel guilty about. It's essential. It makes us more productive and ultimately, life is for living.
