If, as is so common among high achievers, you feel like you're perpetually sinking, no matter how hard you kick, then give Rock-Star Monday a try. The concept is simple: kick off the week with a bunch of wins.

How did I get to this week of peace and a little Christmas magic? In large part, I went by feel (a classic HSP tool).

Anyone stressed as the holidays kick into high gear? My hand is raised.
