I love any excuse for a fresh start.
Really, any excuse to reinvigorate my efforts at whatever has my attention at the moment that presents itself makes me happy. So, once a month — when I flip my calendar over — I get a little burst of energy.
Today, as I write this, it’s March 1. I just ripped the February page off my giant wall calendar and this fresh new month is staring at me, shining with possibilities.
Thirty-one days to revitalize my goals and make progress where making progress has been slow.
March is a good month to think about this, too. It’s been sixty days since practically the whole world was making New Year’s Resolutions. And either we’ve made some progress toward them or we haven’t.
And if we haven’t, this is a good time to take a look and try to figure out why. And then reboot those goals one way or the other.
