So the holidays this year are definitely...weird. Due to the circumstances with COVID, our Christmas traditions and family gatherings are being cancelled or altered in some way. For many people (me included), the holidays are a somewhat hectic but joyful time of year, and having COVID continue into December seems to be robbing this otherwise difficult year of its happiest time. Our past traditions are absent this year, leaving what feels like a void in our lives.
The Wastefulness of Worrying
The greatest news of all is that with a solid plan you can stop thinking ahead and start participating in the present. After all, goals are only accomplished through our work in the present! Stay mindful, savor the journey, have self-compassion, and you can be happy on the way to achieving personal growth, not just once you get there.
