Packers cultivate sunny outlook

Days are supposed to be stretching longer since solstice but to me it doesn’t feel like it. Winter can be hard around here. 

At a Coaching for Your Success event sponsored by Discover Kalispell last summer one of the participants broke down in tears as we prepared to discuss “work-life alignment,” saying, “I can’t take another winter like that last one.”

Many in the room empathized. Summers with the plentiful daylight, recreation possibilities, and stream of visitors tend to speed by. Then the holidays come, and after that the gray settles in, clouding the valley and our mood.
