The holidays always bring a lot on. Everything’s decorated, once a year events are happening, people you only see at this time come into town, or you head out to visit them; it can be overwhelming. Which is just another word for stressed. When the silly season is upon you, it can bring both fun and headache; sometimes in equal measure.
A useful tip for keeping the downer aspects as bay, so you’re more able to dial down into enjoying the positive ones, is to remember things don’t have to be perfect. In the movies, sure; everything’s perfect. Scores of people are paid to make sure even a chaotic Christmas scene, while still frenzied and full of comedy or whatever, still looks great. In reality, people know things work a little differently. So should you. It’s okay when things go a little awry.
That includes the fiscal aspects. Special events and gift giving can put a burden on your bank account. Travel, getting the house or car in order, it all costs. Some pre-planning can keep the worst of the heavy hits from leaving you buried in debt. Some of that same planning can keep your head above water when it comes to dealing with everything else. Stay ready, and enjoy the season.
