We are heading into Fall, 2024 with anticipation of changes in weather, time, looking forward to the upcoming holiday season, and trying to balance schedules in the busiest times of the year.
Parents are busy with work, children, home life, personal, and couple time. Employees and managers adjusting to shorter days of light, end of year expectations regarding how successful businesses have been in 2024, and scheduling. College students have gotten into the swing of college or university life seeing how they have adjusted to new courses, mid-term reports upcoming regarding grade averages, and then plans for end of semester exams.
Time management is critical during these Fall days. Daylight hours change, leaving for work or school in darkness, then in December, having left and returned from work or school in the dark hours. How does one balance these changes getting enough sunlight? How does one manage sleep with the gain of an hour adjusting to non-daylight saving time schedules? How does a couple or family adjust to challenging schedules with the holidays upcoming? These, and many more questions are often addressed in the EAP setting or Life coaching regarding managing time, commitments, time for self, time for family, time as a couple, and time with friends.
Time management is necessary. Resources have been added to this post as a possible guide for these possible challenges coming in the near future. Check on the updates session, looking September, 2024 where this a special resource packet for readers.
Resources for Time Management, Seasonal Affective Disorder, and Sleep Hygiene.
Happy Fall and here is to hoping your days are filled with good possibilities for during this special season!
