Thursday, January 2, 2025 – Starting the New Year in the right direction
Description
The new year is good time to look forward to the promises and concerns that lie ahead. In addition to setting individual and professional goals for the year, many people are watching the possibility for sweeping political changes. Merriam-Webster made “polarization” their word of 2024, and it goes beyond political division to an increasing number of family estrangements. We’ll get ideas on staying positive and on track for what’s important in 2025.
