Managing Your Stress During the Holidays and Beyond: Tip #12 – Less is More

It’s easy to get overwhelmed with the message of consumption during the holidays. Not only gifts, but decorations, food, drink, social events, etc. The idea of more, more, more is all around us.

Remember that simplicity is a good rule of thumb, at this (or any time) of the year. Also think of what the mindset of having more, doing more, and being more is doing, not only to your attitude, but also to your wallet. What will all this “more” that you create now do for you in the coming weeks and months? Is that a price you’re willing to pay? Now think of what cutting back a little now will do for you both now and in the long run.

The choice is up to you. How much more (or less) are you going to create this holiday season?
