Your presence this Christmas
The Philippine Star|December 08, 2024
This story is about a simple-minded guy who bought his mother-in-law a cemetery plot as a Christmas gift.

Your presence this Christmas

The following year, he didn't buy her anything. When the mother-in-law asked why, the guy replied, "Because you still haven't used the one I bought you last year!"

And that's how the fight started. Christmas has a way of amplifying whatever we're feeling. If you're leaning into the peace and joy of Advent, those feelings grow brighter. But the holidays can magnify your weight if you're grieving, stressed or worn out.

For leaders, this season can be incredibly intense. The higher your position in the organization, the more obligations and responsibilities require your presence and attention.

Just imagine how many company Christmas parties you will have to attend, even if you're only going to "show face" and then move on to another gathering. Guess how many client Christmas celebrations you will have to grace with your presence?

After pouring your heart into all the celebrations, you often crash into Christmas with little left to give. And this year, in particular, may feel more draining than usual.
