Your Plan For a Stress-Free Holiday Season
It’s the most wonderful time of the year…kind of. Here’s your plan for making sure you get more pleasure out of the holidays.
I know, Halloween was just last week. Do we really need to talk about Thanksgiving and Christmas already? Yes, yes we do. Let’s face it. Once Halloween is done, everything is a mad blur from November first until some early to mid-January date.
But it doesn’t have to be like that. If you plan for it, and stick to your plan, you can spend the next two months enjoying the season instead of wishing it was over.
These are my 10 rules for getting through the season with your holiday spirit and sanity intact.
Do all your holiday planning in one place
Grab a blank notebook or open up a new note in the app on your phone. Use this as a central location for all your holiday planning: meals, gift shopping, parties, and more. Put it all here, and if it’s a notebook, take it with you everywhere.
This cuts down on stress by putting everything in one spot so you don’t have to worry about where to look to find that one thing you need.
