Winter in New England is pretty unpredictable; weather in New England is unpredictable any time of the year as a matter of fact. As I write, snow is blowing steady and it's extremely cold outside. I'm finding it hard to embrace the thought of snow removal when the storm is over, but I try to keep my chin up. When being outside is limited because of the season, it's easy to feel sad, to feel lonely, to feel disconnected especially if you work from home. You find yourself alone with your thoughts and if you don't keep those instigators in line, they can get out of control. Keep yourself busy, there are no doubt many things you can do indoors that you put off in exchange for being outside in the sunshine. Save up for those sunny days by getting your inside work done now. Be still with yourself and feel how being in the moment feels. Set goals for yourself and list various ways you can reach them. Read the books you've been putting off. Start a new hobby or craft. See how it allows you to express yourself differently. Begin working on yourself - see how outside help (a coach like myself) can benefit your personal growth. Reflect on yesterday just briefly, look forward to tomorrow, and be in today; be here now. Be happy - Be grateful - Be hopeful - Be You
