Actually, it does not really mean anything unless you live in the US and you haven’t filed your taxes yet. Then you are a week closer to the deadline. 

If you have read any of my writing, you might have been expecting a certain point of view. Maybe something like, “It’s the last week of March. Only one more week to accomplish those monthly goals and get ready for April!” That’s true but not want I feel compelled to write today.

It’s the last week of March. So what. It’s another week. Today is just another Monday. Or is it? 

Today can be just another Monday like many other Mondays in which you dread starting the week, and do nothing to move yourself forward. Or today can be a new Monday. One where you are happy to be starting another week and eager to take advantage of more time on this earth to provide value to yourself and others. 

The point is that the time on the calendar is arbitrary. It can be helpful for planning, but you should not be locked into it. The last week of March can be just as powerful as the first week of January if you focus. You remember the first week of January, right? That week where anything was possible, and 2019 is the year when it all happens! Where did all that enthusiasm go?

It’s the last week of March. So what. You live each day, one day at a time. It’s a new day. Make it count.

It’s funny that I referenced taxes in last year’s post. I just got my preliminary tax documentation and I owe WAY more than I expected. But I’m not going to rant about it. I’m here to take my mind off that particular sore item.

March 2020 has been quite a month, and I’m sure for most people things have not gone according to plan. In the US it’s probably going to get worse before it gets better, and who knows what things will look like in even a month or two. It’s hard to plan ahead, so I’m taking things one day at a time.

We are facing the last weekend of March with only two weekdays after that to close out the month. I think I’m going to do a sprint and try to get some more points on the board. 

This weekend I plan to release an article I’ve been working on for a while. This one has been a long time coming. We have certain phases of life, and for me, it’s time to transition from one phase to another. Of course, when I publish it you’ll be the first to know!
