Everything and More
Hello! How have you been?
It’s newsletter day! So let’s dive in.
Just in case it’s not obvious, Q4 is around the corner! Very soon, we’re going to have non-stop events, colourful decorations, a lot of conversations and predictions for the new year… The list is endless
What is something you look forward to?
While it might be a bit too early to begin reflection and thinking about the entire year in retrospect but it’s a great time to think about what you want for the rest of the year.
We have less than 100 days till the end of 2024 and there’s a tendency to feel like the year is over but it’s not. Not yet.
There’s so much that can be done in 96 days if you make a decision and take some steps.
We would like you to take some time to reflect on these questions:
What is something you would like to do this year? (Volunteer at an event, join the committee for a project, take a course, get a mentor)
What is something you started this year or last year and stopped? Looking at the circumstances surrounding this venture, do you think now is a good time to start again?
What is one thing you can do now to get the ball rolling?
What is something that stops you from doing this one thing?
Is there someone you can tell who will support you through this process?
How long do you need to commit to see real progress?
Your answers might surprise you and reveal things you don’t expect.
This year still has the potential to be everything and more. It depends on what you put into it.
Let’s meet our community member of the week!
