I love the way careful empowering ideas and inklings spread in my online communities. This week what I heard was slow down. Perhaps we need to agree to take the month off together. Yes, I am still the event planner for December and that is a lot of work in and of itself. So maybe I need to let go of the rest of the “shoulds”.

Maybe it’s not the best month to start a diet. Or create a regular exercise routine. Or write a blog post everyday. Or gather more email addresses for our businesses. Instead, I look forward to creativity galore, because to me, Christmas is the penultimate creative holiday. Spiritually and decoratively.

I don’t think I need to ask for anyone’s permission but my own to let go of the control of all the doing and start letting my sense of fun and adventure take the reigns. Perfectionism doesn’t belong in my life this month because it is not a month about fear. It’s a month about family, love, and fun. A reverent month to allow space to see what unfolds.
