Remember, think about how you want to feel to make your aims and resolutions customised for your needs. For example, running two out of seven days a week is better than none at all.
How do you want to feel walking up the mountain and what do you need to prioritise in order for that to happen? Ask yourself the following questions:. Here we go, there is a lot to think about on how to revisit our aims for this year and those ahead. Change comes gradually, all we need is time, patience, and faith.

Photo by Mathilde Langevin. So, how do we revisit our aims for this year? Get your notes and revisit them. Bring some clarity to your mind. Gain some perspective. A good way to gain some perspective is to talk to yourself like you would to a friend. A friend would probably advise you to take it easy on yourself. My nephew Ben knows this figuratively as well as literally, having completed 11 Ironman Each consists of a 1.
His goggles could get knocked off by an overeager swimmer. His bike could get a flat tire. He could trip over a crack in the pavement. So he has trained himself to be aware of each stroke, each pedal, each step.
He and his friends made it up five mountains before snow curtailed their final summit. Turning around was a tough but obvious decision. A year later as he makes plans to attempt it again, Charlie is grateful for the five he climbed, not that one held hostage by hail and snow. Which brings to mind another way that half makes its way into our lives — not of a sandwich or a dozen eggs — but of a glass half full. Or half empty, depending on, well, on you.
On each of us. Glass half full can be an embodiment of so much left to discover. Team work makes the dream work, after all.
Summer can be a stressful time. Sure, you get flexible Fridays, vacations and the happy hours, but the amount of work remains steady. With all of the activities going on, it's easy for people to get distracted--or even burnt out.
Now is the perfect time to pencil in some one on one time with your employees. It doesn't have to be anything formal--a chat over coffee or lunch is more inviting, and let's them know that this is about them, not their productivity or other work metrics. If people seem to be feeling stressed or anxious, see if you can help them find ways to reduce those feelings, by having them collaborate with other co-workers.
Even though I'm busy, I even like to offer to take things off my employees' plates if I can. Advocate for them, and they'll advocate for your business. Now is also a great time to focus on learning. Share reading lists. Give your team things to do to fill their brains when things seem a bit slower.
Launch internal skunk works projects. Do internal hackathons. Personal development is great when you know that your clients may be less aggressive during the summer lull.
