Racing to the Finish Line?

You might be one of the lucky few who are heading to the finish line of 2023 fully of energy and enthusiasm, if you are, that’s fantastic.

But if you’re running out of steam, don’t despair.  Firstly, it’s normal and secondly, instead of pushing yourself till you’ve got nothing left to give and entering the season feeling deflated instead of festive, it might be time to stop racing and start reflecting. 

As the year draws to a close it can be cathartic to think about how you’d like next year to be different.

Making the time to write down your hopes for the year ahead and writing them in the positive and like they’ve already happened using ‘I have’, ‘I am’ statements will help create the clarity we need to enter the new year a fresh.

Once you’ve got it all down on paper, break it down into micro habits/ daily routines that will help you get there.

As James Clear says, it’s the tiny, incremental change - the one percenters - done consistently, that get you where you want to be.

If you get clear on what you want and the habits that will get you there before the new year starts, you’ll be in a great position to start 2024 with clarity and focus.

So don’t waste your last ounce of energy running to the finish line, instead use it to create a wonderful 2024.
