When making your gift lists and Holiday plans it’s easy to overspend. Gifting, traveling, hosting parties, bringing host gifts, and taking the kids on Holiday activity adventures all add up. A depleted bank account is an added stress you don’t need in what is supposed to be a joyous time.  Set yourself up for a stress free Holiday by setting a budget for  gifts, travel, hosting, and events.  Then, most importantly, stick to it.

#1 Set budgets and  stick to them.

Soluble fiber intake increases There is no such thing as perfect.  The tree might be lopsided, the cookies might burn, dinner might be late, and the kids might catch you putting presents under the tree!  Let go of the idea of perfection.  Hand out those cookies as the new gourmet “charred chocolate chip” recipe you found. Hide the lopsided part of the tree in the back. Pass out  a snack and tell everyone it’s their  hors d’oeuvres. Tell the kids Santa was running late so he asked you to help out. Done. Your Holiday isn’t perfect, but neither is anyone else’s.

#2 Let go of expectations and go with the flow!

Grand resolutions are too hard to live up to in a short amount of time, so make the grand plan your year end goal. Then set small tasks each month or every few weeks to break it up into manageable tasks. Celebrate each small accomplishment and soon you’ll be celebrating the big achievement.

# 3 Chuck New Year’s Resolutions and set small monthly tasks that will bring big results.

Find a way to do the task, but skip doing the task! Order from the bakery, buy gift cards or shop online, let the kids do all the decorating, get it catered or make  it potluck. Don’t stress out over tasks you hate. There is always someone to pay or ask for help!
