THOUGHTS WE SHARE

A plea to re-arrange the year!
I guess you have this too: wondering why the last few months of the year are always so full! So full with work, so full with shows (especially November), so full with conferences, meetings and events. And so full with acts and events pushing you all the time.
It’s as if the second half of the year is shorter than the first one!
I’ve often heard that the busy second half of the year is mainly because too many acts and events think ‘we need our tour/event to happen before the end of this year!’.
But somehow this FOMO-explanation does not quite cut it, I think.
It might be much simpler: the second half of the working year is indeed shorter than the first! This is because in the ‘western’ world, the summer holiday period is focused on July/August, and that is entirely in the second half of the year!
So the working year is: 6 months in the first half of the calendar year, and 4 months in the second half.
No wonder there is too much pressure on that second half.
So here’s my simple solution: change the summer holiday period, so that it runs in June and July! This means the working year has 5 months in the first half of the calendar year, and also 5 months in the second half.
Sounds good, don’t you think?
