Term 4 is officially here.
As always, the last term of the year comes with mixed feelings. Excitement that the end of 2019 is in sight, but overwhelm for the amount that we still have to achieve in just 10 weeks.

When you take the time to reflect on 2019, you put yourself in the best position to start 2020 positively. So lock it in now! Pop a few hours in your calendar and prioritise it — you won’t regret it.
