Summer is a season that many people
wish was longer. The warmth, extra day-
light, vacations and barbecues are just a
few of the things that many individuals
relish about summer. However, as the
saying goes, "all good things must come to
an end," and you, along with many others,
may feel like you've got the end of sum-
mer blues when the season fades.
Here’s a few simple ways to beat the end
of summer blues:
Celebrate. Even though
you hate to see sum-
mer end, it is important
to acknowledge it's
happening and there's
no better way to do
that than have a party.
This could be a back-
yard barbecue, a beach
party or a picnic. Deco-
rate with reminders of summer, enjoy
your favorite summer foods and drinks,
and reminisce about the fun you had this
summer.
Place your summer memories on display.
Beating the end of summer blues is easy if
most of the images you see around you
represent summer. Place your summer
pictures in a scrapbook, a decorative pic-
ture frame, or use them as a screen saver
on your computer. Whenever you are feel-
ing overwhelmed or a little depressed
about cold weather coming, glancing at
those summer images will help you feel
warm and relaxed.
Take a whiff of a tropical scent. Smell is
our most powerful memory trigger and
the smell of coconuts and summer seem
to go hand in hand. Infuse your home, car
and office with the coconut scent by using
sprays, candles or oils.
Exercise outside. As the amount of sun-
light you get each day dwindles with the
end of summer, a bit of seasonal affective
disorder (SAD) may set in. Another good
way to beat those end of summer blues is
to get your heart pumping
in some natural light. Forty
-five minutes of exercising
outside at least three
times a week should do
the trick. See if you can
squeeze in a lunchtime
powerwalk in the park for
a midday pick-me-up.
Take a "staycation." Tak-
ing a local mini vacation provides a sense
of freedom similar to that felt during a
leisurely summer vacation. Be a tourist in
your hometown and enjoy the local muse-
um, art gallery or take a walking tour.
Clean out the closets and go shopping.
The change of seasons is a great time to
clean out closets and get rid of any clothes
you have not worn in a year. Getting rid of
things brings on a freeing feeling for most
people that will overpower your end of
summer blues. Once you've cleaned out
your closets, do some retail therapy to
welcome the new season.

How to Beat the End of Summer Blues

2. FAMOUS WORDS
Interesting Facts
You Never Knew
“Everything you can imagine is
real.”
Pablo Picasso
Did you know . . . Coca-Cola
would be green if coloring
weren’t added to it.
Did you know . . . 96% of
candles sold are purchased
by women.
Did you know . . . 2 billion
people still cannot read.
Did you know . . .Vincent
Van Gogh sold exactly one
painting while he was alive.
Did you know . . . 2 out of 5
people marry their first
love.
When it rains, it pours. We have all
heard that at some point, haven't we?
I started thinking about the phrase
and its relationship to momentum.
Isn't that what it means? That mo-
mentum has begun? Usually against
you, too.
So, then it started me thinking about
what creates momentum. Two things
I think.
1. Belief in the certainty of some-
thing
2. Consistent action
Belief is required in that you have to
be sure that good (or bad) things are
going to happen and keep happening.
What you believe will happen is sure
to happen, because your mind will
make sure that it will happen. You
will subconsciously do things that
support the belief. So for positive
momentum to happen, you absolute-
ly MUST believe that it will.
Consistent action is partially an out-
growth of belief. By taking action
consistently, even small actions, you
are affirming that you believe posi-
tive momentum is coming. Do things
that will move you in a positive di-
rection. Even small things like read-
ing a positive book for 5 minutes a
day or getting up 15 minutes earlier
or just visualizing positive future
events can start momentum.
Momentum is nothing more than a
sustained series of events that propel
you in a particular direction. It is not
something that can be imposed upon
you. It is not something that is be-
yond your control either. Think
about sports and momentum.
In football for instance, when a team
is on a roll during a game, they do
EVERYTHING right. They hit the
passes, run the ball, make the first
downs, score, they defend, intercept
the ball, sack the opposing QB, etc.
The team on the negative side of mo-
mentum often never gets back in the
game, though it isn't because they
can't. It's because they lose confi-
dence or belief in their ability to do
so.
Did you catch that? It is a MAJOR
CLUE!!!!!
They don't BELIEVE THEY CAN
WIN.
They may not say it, but everyone
can SEE it in their attitudes and ac-
tions. (Belief and consistent action)
So when you desire to start positive
momentum, you must believe in it
and take consistent action toward
your goals. Take little steps at first.
Do the small things that are easy to
help support your belief. As you get
more confident and consistent, take
bigger steps, bigger actions. You will
find that they will become easier as
you progress.
Why is that?
Because you no longer doubt the out-
come. You have conditioned your-
self to believe and do not accept fail-
ure as a possibility.
