Have you ever thought to yourself, I’m just not creative? Over the years, I have had many people tell me they don’t have a creative bone in their body. For a long time, I was that person lamenting my lack of creativity, silently wishing I could paint a beautiful landscape or sketch the images I see in my mind. As I thought about it more, I realised that I just hadn’t found an outlet to create. I hadn’t found a way to express the wonder that I see in the world.

This morning, I made myself the most sensational-looking coffee. The crema was a rich caramel colour; the fragrance filled the kitchen and hung in the air. The milk frothed perfectly without making the awful screeching noise that sent my family members, pets included, running for another room. It was both spectacular looking and noteworthy, given my history with our coffee machine. We are not friends and I battle it constantly.

If you have spent any time with me or read any of my writing, you will discover pretty quickly that workaholic tendencies, perfectionism, and taking on too much at once are things I struggle with. Part of managing that is utilising organisational and time-management tips that help to control the chaos. Use the do not disturb function on your phone – most smartphones have this. You can set do not disturb for certain times of the day, and block out all or certain apps, calls, and messages.

All around me, people are setting intentions for the new year, making resolutions, creating change, and re-evaluating their lives. My socials are full of people’s words for the year as they attack the new year with enthusiasm. This year I feel a need to slow down into the new year, to take an unhurried approach. Usually, I have my word of the year ready to go. I am working out all the steps I need to take to enact change, to live out that word to its fullest.

I have been thinking a lot about how things are often not bad, just different. Sometimes when things are not the way we like them, not in the perfect little gift box with a bow on top, we automatically frame them as bad. My daughter got married a couple of years ago, and our son was living in Melbourne. This left us with an empty nest facing a very different Christmas. My first thought was that I could never enjoy Christmas again. I considered pretending Christmas wasn’t happening.
