I opened my inbox and realised half the tasks are “carry over to January.” It made me reflect on how much we try to squeeze into a year that is already full. What is one thing you are consciously not taking into the new year?

A lot of the carryover tasks feel frustrating because we put this weird, arbitrary marker between years. In reality, a lot of stuff is ongoing and perennial, regardless of which year it falls into. I'm consciously not taking stress about deadlines into the new year. Most of them are made up anyway.

Sounds amazing! Hope it goes well

Anyone who has started up a side hustle whilst working in consulting - is it generally a good idea to let your employer know or will they make your life difficult/try to push you out if they know?

(Context - I need the extra income to have a shot at affording grad school, I work for a small boutique, job contract was ambiguous on the issue. Side hustle is selling stuff I make as a hobby on Amazon)

Thanks!
