Hi there! Happy New Year's Eve and thank you for tuning into the Lazy Genius podcast.

I'm Kendra and I'm here to help you be a genius about the things that matter and lazy about the

things that don't. Today's episode 89. Race at the house instead of burning it down. You've got

champagne to pour and kids to trick into thinking it's midnight when it is actually 8 o'clock,

so we will keep this quick. And I am recording this within 24 hours of you hearing it and I can

promise you that we are tricking our kids with a fake midnight without question. Okay, so before

we talk about house stuff, I just want to give you a quick tap on the shoulder and remind you that

you do not have to solve all of life's problems by tomorrow, by Jane Ray first, or even identify what

all of life's problems are. Remember that the start of the new year, it is such a fun time, it is

a gift and it feels fresh and all that good stuff. Keep it fun and fresh and good because we

color it with guilt and sheds and self-improvement and all the things that kind of make a sad and I

don't want that for any of us. So just keep your hustle and check, it is okay to be motivated to set goals

and clean up the Christmas decorations and bust through all the things, but it is also okay to just

let the first day of the year come and go without any fanfare beyond like smiling at the new year.

Chances are you are you're not working today or tomorrow and you might get a chance to just like

hang with your people. So remember that it's okay to just do that, just be a person. And if you're

feeling itchy about goals or wanting a new way to see fresh starts, next week's episode is super

for you. Last January I shared an episode called the lazy genius sets goals and there is also a

post I wrote about how to set goals like a normal person. If you need some like concrete goal talk

on the literal first day of the year, you can check out both of those resources in the show notes.

And the next week we're going to dive in how to make changes as a person without getting caught up in

vortex of check boxes and failure. I am really really excited about that episode, so I hope you tune
