December can be a stressful time of year, your money is tight, you’re trying to balance work (sometimes multiple jobs), family, make time for yourself, and you want to get your life right in preparation for next year. The first thing I need most of you to do is stop all the whining and bi*****, Keep Calm, breathe and use some of these tips:
SAY NO!
Ohhh this is a tip that I hold dear to my heart. Listen, you already have plenty going on and this is not the time where you can be everything to everyone. Now is the time to put the important things first and say NO to the bulls***. That doesn’t only apply to saying no to unreasonable people, but sometimes we have to say no to Facebook, Twitter, and many of the distractions that we have that waste valuable time during the holidays.
EXPRESS GRATITUDE
Express how grateful you are, write it down, and think about everything that you have been blessed with. It’s amazing how quickly attitude changes when you take a second to stop and think about how many ways you have been blessed. Heck if you have to, send a card out to people expressing how thankful you are to have them in your life. This medicine is better than Xanax.
