![]() January is the traditional time for me and many others in the world to revisit priorities and goals, both from last year and for the year ahead. This year I waited until mid-January to review these, allowing some time and space between the years to get a clear and calm picture of past, present, and future. In reflecting on 2024, and especially on the slide into 2025, I noticed that I felt less calm and rested than I have in previous years. December was hectic, and the first while of 2025 is pretty much the same. I had planned to use some of the time over the holidays to work ahead on things, but the opportunities to decompress and unwind were just too tempting, so not much got done over that break. By 02 January, I was pretty much back to full days of work.

You're trying to remember something - it's on the tip of your tongue but you just can't get it. You try hard to think of it, but get even more frustrated, and the answer seems even more elusive. Then, as soon as you think about something else, the answer comes to you. Or this: you're working on something and it's going really well. Before you know it, an hour or two has passed by and you didn't notice. You don't recall exactly what you did during that time, but you can see what you accomplished, and it feels brilliant. Yep, me too. |
