STARTING LINE...

Prince Harry ~?Duke of Sussex and the author of the best-selling book, SPARE. (c) Jenna Jones

In a race, everyone has the same starting line and the same finish line. However, paces differ owing to several factors like stamina, preparedness, mental resources, physical strength, external & internal pressures, among others.?

We can use this analogy to explain the year 2023. We are at the beginning of a long-distance race, with the rest of this year ahead of us—a marathon that takes more than speed to complete successfully.

You need to train for this marathon by setting the right goals, visualising your success, and developing your stamina and resilience. All these are necessary for running a successful marathon for the rest of 2023. So don't rush through it, and don’t let anyone rush you.?

Glazia Weekly will keep sharing practical tools to help you in the race, starting with these self-help events, inspiring news, entertaining stories, and much more.?

This is your race. Pace yourself well!

Love,?
