You’re almost there, I promise.

Last week, I wrote about how we’re slowly inching toward year-end and tapping our energy to keep us going. Today, I’m focused on the motivation it takes to get there – some tangible steps to make it happen.

Let’s be real – we could all use that extra boost to bolt us through the next couple of weeks before we sign off for the holidays. Because deadlines, deadlines, deadlines. But if you ask me, health, health, health.

We need balance, and I’m planning to call it a wrap by mid-month (ish) for my team and me. It’s just one way I’m focusing on my health and wellbeing and also how we’re reflecting that as an organization. And knowing that, it’s giving me energy to stay focused between now and then.

BTW, if you’re a last-minute planner like some of us (I’m definitely not looking at myself right now, nope, definitely not), let this officially be a reminder to disconnect for a few days if you’re able. Trust me, it’ll make a massive difference. That email can probably wait.

In the meantime though, take a look below for some tips we’ve gathered to help you stay focused and strong as we get closer to saying “BYE!” to 2023.

Finding motivation when all you want to do is circle back next year

It’s that time of the year when we’re in the home stretch before the holidays and asking folks to circle back in the new year. Yet with the year-end deadlines, finalizing budgets, and acknowledging events going on around the world, it can be tough to stay focused. 

We asked our community to share their best tips for staying motivated in these final few weeks of the year.
