OCTOBER 2019 UPCOMING EVENTS A Letter From the President October, what a wonderful time to prepare for the last quarter of the year. We have three months left in 2019 to continue to make it a great year. It is important to take into account the time of year, acknowledge where you are in your life/ career/business, and gauge your productivity levels moving forward. You have to look at Martha VandeLeest the big picture, and set realistic expectations for yourself. With the holidays upon us, it is easy to write off the next three months. However, it does not have to be that way. It is important to take into account the time of year, acknowledge where you are and gauge your productivity levels moving forward. You have to look at the big picture, and set realistic expectations for yourself.

Three Ways to Make the Most of the Last Three Months of the Year 1) Tie up loose ends: What one or two things have you been resolving to do forever but just can’t seem to finish? Now is a great time to clear the decks and wrap up all those projects and to-dos that always seem to get pushed to the back-burner. 2) Focus on relationships: Instead of seeing the 4th quarter and the busy holiday season as less time and less productivity, use them as an “excuse” to get in touch and open up opportunities for stronger connections and collaborations. This is a great time to connect with former colleagues, and any other business contacts you would like to keep in touch with—it will not be awkward since this is one of the most social seasons of the year. 3) Manage your time: Use your schedule as an indicator of when it is time to hustle, and when it is time to let it flow. Instead of trying to evenly pace your work over the next three months, identify a few periods of time where you can do “sprints”—times where you can kick focused work into high gear and make a lot of progress in a short period of time. When you are “off-sprint,” enjoy the time to celebrate what you achieved and get much-needed rest. Remember look to the Chamber to help you achieve your goals as you can develop relationships and discover new things each month.
