Weekly Challenge # 127: Get Ahead In Winter...While Others Are Waiting On Spring

[Yes, this is a re-work of Weekly Challenge # 105...because it's timely :) ]

Instead of spending the next couple of weeks waiting for warm weather and the opportunities that come with spring, use this time to either:

(1) Finish the winter strong, or

(2) Get a jump on spring

While everyone else is waiting and pining for spring --and generally being unproductive, you can use this time to get ahead in your work, at home and on your year's goals.

So let's take the two possible strategies one at a time:

How do you finish the winter strong?

You begin, continue or finish those projects and tasks that are perfect for the winter: tasks meant to be done inside when the weather is cold, projects best suited to the slower pace of winter, and those endeavors that help you build capacity and store up energy instead of burning it up.

Sometimes this looks like rest and sometimes it looks like preparation and often, it's just something you'd rather not be doing when the weather turns warm and inviting.

There is time yet for you to finish the winter strong.

Unless you're already loopy with spring fever. In which case...

How do you get a jump on spring?

Answer 1: you project yourself into May 1st, and ask yourself. What are all those things I wish I would have gotten a jump on back in March, instead of having to do them now?

Think spring cleaning, or yard preparation, or income taxes.

Answer 2: you ask yourself: while everyone else is easing into spring, what are the things I could be working on, pushing forward, getting done, that will enable me to be ahead of the game once spring and summer come on in full?

Why wait for summer (when you could be vacationing)? when you can accomplish a great deal in the spring and feel all the better for it?

Think about accomplishing both 2nd and 3rd quarter goals...by July.


Bottom Line: This is a time of year where you can either lose track of time or get ahead. Either finish strong or spring forward.



BE More,


Tom

POWER QUESTIONS:

1. What from the winter do I have left to do? How can I finish strong?
2. What things could I get done to get a jump on spring and summer?
3. How can I take a break during the transition of the seasons?

Good Day. By prizing heartfulness above faultlessness, we may reap more from our effort because we're more likely to be changed by it. Help me! I can not find sites on the: Mini portable air conditioners. I found only this - maytag air Conditioners. If you live in an area where the electrical power suffers. Over years of proven software hardware performance in industrial instrumentation helps our customers to define and design new products. Waiting for a reply :mad:, Adelaide from Northern.

Good evening. It had only one fault. It was kind of lousy.
I am from Montenegro and now study English, please tell me right I wrote the following sentence: "Out a trick has wheels on longer psychobilly and ducati-marqued styles, while a ground year on shorter and more popular groups."

:D Thanks in advance. Manning.
