The days have gotten pretty short up here on the 52nd parallel. The sun rises in the southeast and scoots along the southern horizon; darkness comes way too soon. Today, the wind is blowing a cold rain across the pastures.

But here’s what’s true: The seeds of spring blow on these cold winds of November. What are you planting?

And not just in your garden. (I planted tulips in mine a week ago, looking at the beautiful label on the bag, and imagining what they’ll look like in the brilliance of the spring.) But in your business and in your life. What seeds are you planting?

It’s easy, as the darkness envelops us and the temperatures fall and the holidays loom, to just say, “screw it, nothing’s going to get done in the holiday season; I’ll hunker down and hibernate; I’ll just wait til the first of the year to push things forward.” But this – this time – is the absolute best time of year to begin to review what you’ve accomplished in the year thus far, to consider what’s worked well, to assess where the challenges have been; and to begin to plan for the year ahead; to begin to consider the possibilities; to begin to create new opportunities.

It’s a bit like those early lessons we suffered when we’d wait til the first of June to look for that summer job. It was too late.

In the same way, if you dismiss the wonder and opportunity of this season, you’ll be behind the curve when the first of January arrives, as it most surely will.

The seeds of spring blow on these cold winds. What seeds will you be planting?
