Unlike most people, this isn’t my favorite time of year.  I’m a winter girl.  Big fan of cold temperatures, brisk air and snow.  I’m always a little bit sad when it starts to get warmer and I have to say goodbye to my favorite seasons.

One of the things I do like about the change from winter to spring is the sense of a clean slate.  The opportunity to have a start fresh both personally and professionally.  It’s a good time for reflection and planning and maybe even revisiting any resolutions made for 2016.  It might also be a good time to take on new projects or at least consider what new projects might be on the horizon. 

It’s an opportunity for us to shed our winter coats, take a breath of fresh spring air and feel renewed.  Open the windows and let the spring air clear out the doldrums of winter. 

Personally I have an ongoing “project to-do list” complete with my projects I have to do and those I hope to do.  And as we work on objectives and business plans during this time of year, I’m looking ahead with excitement at the projects I have.

As we look forward to spring, what is on the horizon for you?  What are you looking forward to in the coming weeks/months?

Happy Spring!
