Plans or "No plan is a plan to fail." 

The Holiday Season is upon us! Yes, it¼s true. So how are you going to 
approach it? Ignoring it is not really an option because you must 
isolate yourself from the world to really ignore it and that¼s pretty 
hard. You could approach it with dread and delay moving into it until 
the last minute or never get there at all then feel guilty and sad. You 
could wait until it¼s really close and then try to do all your shopping, 
partying and maintain your usual busy schedule until you are totally 
åstressed out.¼

Or, you could try this idea:

    1.. Sit and contemplate for awhile on all you have to be grateful 
for.
    2.. Consider the people in your life, family, friends and the people 
you work with and make note of how even their most negative or 
irritating qualities have helped you to become the person you are 
today. Then tell them how much you appreciate them.
    3.. Write a letter of gratitude to someone you love.
    4.. Visualize your perfect Holiday Season.
    5.. Make a list of gifts you really want to give (don¼t let anyone 
åshould¼ on you) and then make a budget to go with them. Start 
shopping now.
    6.. If you have any creative ability make some gifts and know that 
they may be the most appreciated of all.
    7.. Use your time planner well and realistically, leave some time 
for rest. Organize your work so you can hold off on any new projects 
until the Holidays are over. Complete all that you can as soon as 
possible.
    8.. Plan for the glow of love, peace and gratitude to come from you 
and back to you.
