Surviving EoY calendar chaos: Declining meetings, setting your OOO messages, and more!

[Alyssa Towns]

Hi, everyone! 

Freelance writer for Clockwise here! (I hear many Atlassians love Clockwise - I love to hear it.) 

Between work demands, family commitments, and holiday plans, the end of the year can feel overwhelmingly exhausting. I had the opportunity to partner with Clockwise on some fun content about keeping your head above water as the holidays quickly approach. (Read: How to Say "No" at Work This Holiday Season and 3 Out-of-Office Templates for Your Holiday Plans). 

The Clockwise team created an incredible free download filled with meeting decline templates, OOO auto-responses, and more. If you could use some help navigating the chaos this season, I hope you'll check it out! 

Now, I want to know: How do you protect your time (and, more importantly, make time for YOU) during the holidays?

I ask myself does attending this event add to my life or take away from it? Time is precious and giving it to the most important people in your life is a non--negotiable especially during the holidays. If others don't like or understand your choices, then you know you definitely made the right choice. Happy holidays to all.
