Summertime's here, and you're ready to downshift and relax for a minute. But what if I told you there's a lovely window of opportunity open right now that could dramatically impact your day-to-day life and business results for the rest of the year? 

Most people wait until January to figure out their goals for the year. It's fantastic that you're making the goals, but if you've left it until January, you've missed the momentum that comes at the beginning of the year. You've put that "I'm rested and ready" energy into planning instead of jumping off the starting line with your plan already in place. 

In summer, our natural inclination is to take our foot off the gas. But I'm asking you to keep it there for a little longer because summer is the best time to reset your business vision.
Don't get overwhelmed - you know I'm firmly in the anti-hustle camp. So when I'm asking you to consider using precious summer hours to think about your business, there are excellent reasons behind that.
