It takes me the first few weeks of January to realise I’m in a new year; at least when it comes to writing the date.
Although writing ‘2020’ instead of ‘2019’ is a mild change, it’s easy to forget. Maybe you’ve scratched out a few ‘2019s’ this past week, too?
When we’re faced with new realities—especially ones more complicated than a date change—it’s normal and natural to need time to adapt.
And giving ourselves a little grace when we make mistakes is a recipe for easier transitions.
