...is a thank you note 💌

Is there anything better than waking up on Christmas morning? I mean, it’s amazing as a kid, but as an adult, you wake up knowing that you have a whole day with nothing to do but spend time with the people you love. No meetings, no errands – just a lot of coffee, gift wrap + holiday movies on the couch.

This morning, we challenge you to look beyond the stress of travel, visiting with relatives and the financial burden of the holiday. Think about what truly matters this time of year:

👫 People: Live in the moment today with the ones you love (...that means putting down your phone).
👐 Giving: Gifts + service to others. Reflect on how you can give back next year.
Time: Relax. Go for a run, read a book or spend an extra few minutes lying in bed. You deserve it.

Most of all, thank you for all the gifts that you have given us this year. Without your support, feedback + commitment to reading our daily newsletter, we wouldn’t exist.

You are the most important part of COLAtoday. And trust us, we’re working hard every day to get better for you, so we can all get smarter by lunchtime.

P.S. – Happy Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Boxing Day or any other holiday you may be celebrating this season.

🎶 On the morning of Christmas, we ask our followers “please”... 🎶
