Hey there, Jen here, and this is a happy bit. So the holidays are here and you're probably stressed

out, trying to get everything purchased and baked and decorated and mailed. But I want to challenge

you this week, and I've said this before, to start thinking about how you want to feel during the

holidays and all the things you could let go of so that you could have more time

for feeling the way you want to feel. Over the years, I've become better and better at

maximizing time for the things that I love and letting go of the, quote, shoulds that have

tended to plague many of us. Whenever I think about something I'd like

to try during the holidays, I apply that question, how would this make me feel? And if the answer

isn't something I want, then I let it go. For example, baking cookies with my kids during the holidays

usually doesn't generate the feeling

I want because I leave that activity feeling depleted and drained.

On the other hand, I feel amazing curled up with the kids by the fireplace reading books.

So that's what we choose.

Remember, the greatest gift you can give your loved ones is your own happiness,

and that's because mood is contagious. And if you're a mom, you can't give your kids what you don't

have. You want to teach your kids the art of being happy, and that begins by learning how to

manage your time so well that you're spending most of your time doing the things you love.

I'm offering a free masterclass for all of you next week. It's called How to Create More
