Add more than birthdays to your 2019 calendar reminders. Include tips, tricks, ideas for achieving your goals. My favorite thinking prompts and reminders come as texts to myself. I'm quite responsive. LOL!

Before making any New Year's resolutions, reflect on your process and feelings about 2018 goals. What were the pain points you would like to avoid in the coming year. If you renew a resolution, how will you approach it differently or reinforce your growth?

Boxing Day! Use this British tradition to clear space for holiday gifts. Instead of presenting a "Christmas box" to your servants, make a donation to your local clothing bank or donation site.

Keep an eye out for small, quirky, last minute gift items. They are often the biggest hit, garnering laughter and engaging loved ones.

You don't have to be an aspiring 'titan of industry' to want to shine professionally. Take advantage of free articles in business newsletters & explore the resources at your local public library. You can be on the cutting edge without the C-suite stress.

Struggling with email subject headings? Cramming an entire msg in the subject line is rarely effective. It does not save time and can cause confusion. Established naming conventions and a standard format for subject headings supports efficient communication.

Stop searching for that perfect gift. iInstead give a shared experience. Host a weekend getaway for 'just the kids'. Schedule a spa outing or convert every room in your house into an Escape Room challenge. Good times & happy memories. No clutter.

It's almost THANK YOU note time. Acknowledging thoughtfulness is deserving of time & care.
Don't rattle off a generic 'It was great to see you.' Be specific. From a recent note, "It is simultaneously peaceful & stimulating at your home." Delightful!

In the midst of gift wrapping? Take the time to sort your materials. Gift bags piled by size and theme. Ribbon left unused for last 10 years, toss. Ugly gift tags, toss. Once materials are organized, clear a table or counter and let the wrapping begin!

Have you implemented a rule or guideline that is constantly meeting resistance? Assess the value of making most colleagues unhappy if the only value is congratulating yourself on having taken action. Listening & self reflection are powerful leadership tools.

Here is fantastic advice from Chef Jose Andres of @WCKitchen, "When you find yourself up against a challenge, just start moving."

Ensure your home is presentable for 'drop-by' company by developing a speed-cleaning routine. Gather items for laundry, stray items to be put away, & collect empty soda cans and napkins for the garbage.
Have a routine that works for you? Race the clock.

One of the easiest ways you can ensure your comfort at work is to have some personal care supplies handy. Suggested items include: cough drops, gum, OTC pain reliever, dental floss, mints, bandaids.....
Particularly important during flu season!

Think reading is either entertaining or informational? It can be both. Read a novel but attend to the interactions between characters. What motivates them? How might you respond in a similar exchange? Take your broader understanding and apply it #IRL
