DON'T RUSH THIS SEASON!

The 2022 Christmas Season is here!!

Please, don’t rush the Season.

With all the hustle and bustle of traffic congestion, changes in the weather, long lines at the register, and some terrible grumpy attitudes of those around us, it would be easy to hurry it up and miss out on some inspiring things.

Pull back and focus for a moment. Ask yourself, “How can I make the most of this Christmas Season?

Try this suggested list of things:

  • Take the time to be nice – don’t be another Scrooge…there are plenty of them out there!
  • Take the time to enjoy the sights and sounds of the season.
  • Make the time with your family much more special (drinking hot chocolate; singing Carols by the tree; wrapping gifts together; baking Christmas goodies; watch some great Netflix Christmas shows (The Santa Clause Chronicles 1 & 2; White Christmas; etc.).
  • Slow down! And maybe, if you have places to go, leave a little earlier than normal.
  • Give – this is a Season of Giving – you could change someone’s life for the better! 

You’ve got this! Lead the way and others will follow!

Have a great safe non-rushed week!
