A week from today is Daylight Saving Time for many parts of the world. It will happen on March 8th at 2:00am, or 0200 hours for you military/universal time lovers. (By the way, you know the phrase, “You learn something new every day”? Well, I didn’t realize until today that the official name is Daylight “Saving”, not “Savings”, Time. Will need to retrain my brain on that one…)
Anyway, this is a day that brings mixed feelings for me. The idea of “losing” an hour of sleep is definitely not one of my favorite things. I don’t get enough sleep as it is; don’t take away a whole hour!! Also, it will be darker in the morning than it has been, which makes getting going even tougher, especially for us night owls. However, the idea of it staying lighter out for longer is rather nice. No more evening walks or runs in the dark, and the temperature will not drop quite as early.
Whether you love it, hate it, or are indifferent to it, this is a great time to embrace the concept of “Springing Forward”. It almost begs us to get motivated and energetically go after whatever we have planned in our life. Of course, it might take a couple days for our bodies to get readjusted to the new time before we feel energetic, but then you can go out there and conquer the world! : )
I challenge you to look forward to springing ahead with your goals – for your personal and business life – and see how taking a fresh start can help you be more successful and feel more fulfilled.
I’ve been working hard to develop specific goals (with deadlines!) this year that will help me achieve milestones that I’ve set for myself. What are some things you can do to tackle challenges that are ahead of you?
Or better yet – what is something “extra” that you’d like to do to make your product, service, or project really stand out?
Let me help you save time by partnering with you as you tell your story. Don’t feel like you have to do everything yourself. I would be honored to have the opportunity to be your voice, and if you need assistance with other elements of the production process, like audio post production, video editing, etc., I can make recommendations and referrals for that as well. Storytelling becomes so much richer and more rewarding when it is a collaborative process, and I can’t wait to team up with you to share your story with the world!
Save time with light-speed turnaround, professional quality done right the first time, and no-worries, stress-free service. Spring forward and tackle new projects and challenges with energy, confidence, and a new voice.
I can’t wait to work with you and to tell your story!
What are your feelings on DST? I’d love to hear your thoughts, as well as ways that you are going to spring ahead and accomplish great things!
