Life Tip # 12

Winter Wind-down?

As the days get shorter and the nights colder, it can be a time to reassess, not just dig in. If you're feeling like you're in a rut or disheartened by things in your personal or professional life, consider these tips:

•If what you're doing isn't working, try taking a break from all the activity. A "mental health day" can allow you to relax and look at things more objectively.

•Are your goals and values aligned? Inconsistency between these two can lead to stress, discouragement, self-sabotage and procrastination.

•Write down 5 things you've been promising/fantasizing/putting off doing. Make a commitment to do 2 of them within the month.

And remember, taking action is the catalyst for change!
