Bring It On, Spring!

And I think most of us would say it feels way overdue!

The winter of 2024-2025 has notably been a wild one. A season filled with temperature extremes attributed to disruptions in the polar vortex, several significant winter storms including a powerful bomb cyclone with which impacted the West Coast leading to record-low pressure readings and widespread power outages.

What does that look like in everyday life? We’ve seen a season filled with tornados, hurricanes, low temperatures, with lots of rain, snow and ice. Not far behind that came frozen pipes, collapsing roofs, fires, flooding and mudslides…

So, Spring … I say BRING IT ON!!

When I think of better weather and wildflowers poking their heads up from their winter’s sleep, my mind goes to what will I do differently than I’ve done these past few winter months?

I see this as starting with the end in mind … What comes to mind for you? What will you do differently?

Perhaps it’s a decluttering project, starting with your closets, basement, or garage? Maybe it’s training for a run of some distance, or getting in shape for that beach vacation you hope to take? Maybe it’s taking steps to make what’s on your vision board come to life (not sure what a vision board is, pop me a note!).

Whatever comes to mind for you, your journey starts with knowing your “end state,” followed by a little planning: identifying the steps you will take to get there; getting prepared whether it is securing the materials you need or blocking out time to actually do it; making a commitment; following through; and ultimately celebrating your success!

Set aside a few minutes today, to reflect on what you want this Spring to look like for you! – Joan.
