Well we did it again...we returned once more to work and school after the Christmas holiday break. Returning to the daily "grind" after some time off can certainly be a challenge. Hopefully many of us made some positive memories and were able to catch up on rest. The question is, how can we bring these positive things back to our work or school routines?
Some people are not returning to positive work or school environments. So how is one to bring the joy of the holiday season into their daily routines? Perhaps it helps to remind ourselves that difficult situations help us find our true potential. And if life was too easy, it would be boring. Who wants to live a boring life?
Some of us are returning to work or school environments which include difficult people. Perhaps it is helpful to remember that it is from our dealings with difficult people that we may learn the most. Argumentative people help us learn our own positions better. Immature and naïve people provide us our best opportunities to plant seeds that may take root in these young people's hearts years from now.
I have definitely seen my email begin to bustle with activity this week. All of the things that have been put off until after the holidays are now requiring attention. I will get through this as I have in years past. And perhaps, if I am fortunate, I'll realize that this is not a "grind" at all, but rather a blessing.
