Shop online

Set smaller goals

Try to avoid being a maximalist this time. You don’t need to buy the biggest tree, cook the biggest dinner or send out the biggest amount of Christmas cards. Concentrate on what really matters, buy or create good gifts for those you really care about and forget the rest.

Ask for help

You always try to sort out everything on your own from to shopping to decorating house and tree? Don’t. It’s absolutely fine to ask for help from family and friends. Choose who would be the best for each task and ask everyone to do what they are the most comfortable with. This way the whole holiday process will be a lot easier and smoother.
