On this last Tuesday in June it is a great time to have a checkpoint on our Summer Letter Writing Goals for 2016! This is continuing to be a fast-paced week as we march toward a long July 4th Holiday weekend! Closing out the month of June brings with it also closing the Second Quarter, and the First Half 2016. There still may be time to complete your goals this week if you were striving to complete by end of June.
One suggestion is to send off for the upcoming July 4th Special Fancy Pictorial Postmarks I shared details this past Sunday.
It is almost six months since my January 2nd blog post on Planning Letter writing goals for the year. This is a great time to look ahead for the Summer, and the Second Half of 2016.
In my Approaching the halfway mark blog post from June 2015 last year it included mentioning “the Stephen Covey site and it shows a link to each of the seven habits to help give you some information if you are not already familiar with it, or if you are and need a refresher. Also, wiki has a nice summary too onThe 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. 1 – Be Proactive; 2 – Begin with the End in Mind; 3 – Put First Things First; 4 – Think Win-Win; 5 – Seek First to Understand, Then to be Understood; 6 – Synergize; 7 – Sharpen the Saw”
As a reminder on Thursday, June 30 will be the Issue Day for the Soda Fountain Favorites U.S. Forever® Stamp (see my June 20th blog post).
Today’s blog post on Summer Letter Writing Goals Checkpoint is especially relevant to me as I’m rounding up some packages for the Post Office! In conclusion, here’s to taking a few minutes to assess where we are and including time for writing some summer letters and cards to family and friends! You probably already have your extra stamps already tucked into your wallet for any post cards you may come across while out on a day trip too!
