Taking a vacation at the end of the year and going to an exotic destination is an excellent way to both close out a year and to ring in a new year. Having a great time and bringing back fond memories from a year-end vacation really generate sheer momentum that carries me through the first half of the following year. This year has been an example of that. Taking a vacation at the midpoint of a year is a great way to reenergize and be rejuvenated for the second half of the year. Keep up the momentum and tell better stories!
