Shades Readers, as the summer holidays are winding down and we are getting into the last few months of the year, we want to know, what do you want to accomplish before the end of 2018? 

Many of us are caught up in our day-to-day lives, going to work or school, taking care of kids or other relatives, just trying to get through the things we have to do.  We can quickly lose sight of some of the goals or plans we may have had for ourselves.  We may have made resolutions at the beginning of the year or we may have had some ideas that we just have not explored enough. 

So what do you want to do?  Is there a course you wanted to take or a trip you were hoping to go on?  How about a book that you wanted to read or a friend or relative you may have wanted to reconnect with?  What is that you would want to make sure you get done before the end of the year? 

Time is flying by and we need to make the most of every minute we have so take a moment to focus on the things you want to do but can’t get seem to get to.  Are those things still important to you?  You may find that your ideas or priorities have changed and that is okay.  Whatever you settle on, make a plan and take it step by step and before you know it, you will have accomplished it! 

Don’t let the rest of 2018 go by without doing something that you really wanted to do!
