David knew what he wanted to achieve as a Dad, but always felt out of time. At 45, David thought he had everything under control—a successful career, great kids, and a packed December schedule. But behind the scenes: 🎁 He was too busy answering emails to help with Christmas decorating. 🕒 He worked late, missing the joy of the kids opening their advent calendars. 💭 He promised myself “next year will be better”—but it never was.

Today is day #3 of my holiday hack for taking care of yourself. Today, as you continue to TREAT yourself, let's evaluate our expectations. This time of year comes with a lot of expectations. Are yours realistic? Are you picturing perfect Christmas cards, perfect parties, flawless cookies? Are you expecting it all to go smoothly with no changes in plans, no travel delays, no weather concerns? Or are you allowing for the possibility that there could be some chaos, some last minute changes, some family drama along the way? Very often it is our own expectations that set us up for disappointment. Allow for flexibility. Allow for the long lines, the sold out gifts, the short staffing at work. When you loosen your grip on how it all needs to go, you will allow yourself to take in the enjoyment of the season. www.charlottenelsonmd.com #physiciancoach #lifecoach #physicianwellness #thinkwithpurpose

You only have so much room in your life…   Whether it’s energetic, physical, or calendar SPACE: there’s only so much of it.    To receive new things, ideas, and heart aspirations, you have to be intentional about making space for what really matters (i.e. what you really want in life!)  I've adopted the wisdom and grace of one of my dear friends who uses the mantra "Release to make room."     This practice of releasing lets you open toward what you really want.     One of the ways I’m releasing to make room for more is by NOT sending Christmas cards this year… after 35 years of consistently sending them to friends and family, near and far.    Read more about HOW to identify your own next step toward expansion over on the blog –    2 Ways To Expand Your Life: Make room for more of what you want. https://lnkd.in/gFDXHpeY

When the hotline blings in the dead of night, I’ve got 5 minutes to get that order picked processed and ready for pick up. As the owner of the world's sole 24-hour firework store, I understand the challenges that come with blazing this trail solo. Not just sleepless nights but days too. Most people think of fireworks during the holiday season only…our clients are so creative they find uses for fireworks everyday. Most wouldn't dare keep the lights on past midnight, but for us, it's about more than just convenience—it's about community, commitment to spreading JOY. Today Sunday July 7, at 5:10AM, the phone rang. It was a customer headed to a wedding, craving that extra touch of magic with colored smoke for his sister’s wedding 💒 they were late the wedding began at 3am…. Moments like these make every late-night hustle worth it. They remind me why I chose to keep our doors open at all hours—to be there when celebrations need that spark of something special NOW! Running a small business means embracing the grind, especially when others shy away from the late shifts. 24 hours fireworks store is unheard of, But it also means experiencing the unmatched joy of making someone's night, enhancing their event, or simply being the go to destination for all things fireworks, we are a source they can count on when everyone else has closed shop. To all our customers who trust us with their celebrations, big or small, thank you. Your support fuels our fire to keep the doors open 24 hours everyday, we’ll keep pushing boundaries and setting new standards in our industry. It's a journey that's not always easy, but it's incredibly rewarding to see the smiles and hear the excitement in your voices when we deliver beyond expectations and the sky is used to create memories that last a lifetime. Here's to the challenges of being open 24 hours, and to the triumphs that come with being a small business owner who refuses to let the night dim our spirit. Together, let's continue to light up the sky and create unforgettable moments, one firework at a time. 🎆 Happiness is only one FLICK away! #SmallBusinessOwner #Fireworks #Community #LateNightHustle

The perfect LinkedIn x Holiday season story - the "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer Business Model." (ok, work with me here; it will make sense). We all know the story - little Rudolph guided Santa sleigh thru a foggy Christmas Eve to deliver all the presents to all the kids around the world. And the rest went down in history. Think about how this story sits with us today - many of us can recite that entire song in an instance; we have for decades (cough). Rudolph is the most famous of all Santa's reindeer, pulling the entire team to success, and, most of all, for Santa. Now imagine Santa is the business. Or maybe the revenue goals for the year. You've got plenty of product people are interested in - there's Donner and Blitzen, Prancer and Vixen; all important, different and unique. You want everyone to know about all the other 8 reindeer and their offerings, cuz they are each really cool, they are stronger, have something really cutting edge about them....but there is one that just seems to pull the entire 'portfolio' through - the one that draws all the attention......that seems to miraculously benefit all the rest, and, most importantly, the biz (Santa - you following so far? 🙃 ). Hey, what if we just let "Rudolph" 'guide the way', to the benefit of all of us?? So, when you are coming up with your biz plans for 2025 (and I'm sure they are all amazing), remember that it was just one tiny, but impressively memorable 'product', that help lead the entire business to success on one foggy Christmas Eve. And maybe that model will make your business truly memorable one night too. Happy Holidays everyone. #thinkingbigger #marketing #christmas #rudolph #productstrategy #creativethinking
