We want our choices to count, and we want our effort to matter. We also want the years we are given to be used well. However, people often move through life reactively.

There is something unmistakable about December in South Africa. The air smells of sunscreen and braai smoke. Shops hum with Mariah Carey.

We chase moments that feel like a reward. However, December splurges vs January realities tell a different story once the festivities end.
