It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year

I love this time of year. I used to love this time of year solely because of Christmas. I had a proper mix of Clark Griswold, Buddy the Elf, and Ralphie to get totally into the season. As I've gotten older, the excitement now is watching my own kids get into the Spirit and starting new traditions with them. I do still enjoy the heck out a good Christmas movie though!

Now look forward to this time of year as a point of reflection. This year especially, with a lot of triumphs but just as many challenges, has given me a whole new perspective. I also am entering a new decade of my life in 2024 which I've used as fuel to make the most of this past year.

I've been really fortunate in finding amazing humans to surround myself with both professionally and personally that have been willing to help hold me in check. Through them, I've found accountability partners as well as avenues to explore areas I might not have otherwise.

As it pertains to my musings here, I am going to try to get wayyyyy more consistent. Even if its just something quick and easy like this! If you're ready to start planning for next year but looking for that starting point, here is what I used by way of Brian Johnson, who was introduced to me by way of Caroline Roberts!

What went well?

What’s needs work?

How will I get better?

Lets Goooo!!!

P.S. - I love the Spotify Wrapped as a reminder that now is the time to plan for the next year!
