Did I write “Holiday” in an October post? I did. Yes, I know that Christmas is over eight weeks away.
That is why I am mentioning it now. Much of our holiday stress is a result of not having a strategy or plan. When you don’t even think about Christmas until after Thanksgiving, you can’t help being stressed because that leaves only four or five weeks depending on the year. And, as with last year, add the circumstance of planning celebrations or holidays to a pandemic and that makes it a bit more challenging.
So I would encourage you, especially this year, to decide what is important for celebrating the upcoming 2021 Holiday and then create a strategy to achieve that.
As I do every year, and it is worth repeating, take the stress out of the holidays and begin your holiday countdown November 1.
