Most people think that January is the best time to try and recreate yourself, but I think it is really the fall months that are the best. Fall is a time of change! The weather is changing and the leaves on the tree are changing. We are no longer hanging out at the pool but instead we are buckling down on our futures. Kids and young adults are heading back to school. Everyone is coming back from fun filled vacations in the sun to getting back to work and having a schedule.
We all think of January as the prefect time to try and reinvent ourselves but let us be real honest; who actually starts their new year’s resolutions in January? Actually, who even starts their new year’s resolutions at all!? The problem with trying to change after the new year is everyone is worn out from all the holiday stress, parties, and chaos. This is why fall makes the perfect time to change. You are fresh off a couple months of fun in the sun, vacations, and relaxation and now you are ready to buckle down and get back to work. While fall may be the ending half of the year; fall is the beginning of a strong hustle. Whether you are going back to school or sending off your little ones to a new grade fall is a new beginning for everyone.
If you take the few months before the holidays to start a change for a new and better you then by the time the holidays roll around the things you are trying to change about yourself will have become a habit. Plus being in the middle of changing gives you something to talk to the family about, other than politics of course, and who doesn’t love that! Get a head start on your goals and actually make the upcoming year really be YOUR year.
