Chicken and rice - with a little salt and pepper

Did you know there are still 8 weeks left in this year? 8 weeks is a long time! 

I find that as we get closer to the end of the year, we tend to talk ourselves out of achieving any goals we have set. The classic “Ah, I’ll start that in January”, starts to play on repeat in our head about everything. If there are goals that you started but didn’t finish, or you have some new ones that you’re putting off, this is your sign to make a start on those!
