There is never enough time to do everything, but there is always enough time to do the most important thing. ~ Brian Tracy I know what you’re thinking, “what do you mean reduced working hours?! …I don’t have enough time for my workload as it is!” …or do you? You may be familiar with Parkinson’s […]
How much time do you really have? I’d be willing to wager it’s not as much as you’d like to think. On a Friday I like to review my task management system to assess what I intended to accomplish over the course of the week …versus actual results. Do you do the same? If not, I […]
How is your week so far? It’s been an exceptionally busy week for me, which means I’ve got a mild stack of receipts and other paperwork to process, how about you? For my business, I have a weekly system that keeps my paperwork in check. In fact, I actually look forward to it because I […]

With the exception of the second cuppa, I’d suggest a pretty strong contender is ending the workday satisfied. That fulfilling feeling from having successfully executed those tasks you […]
Are you experiencing a few pangs of guilt, stress or anxiety over something you’ve yet to do? I don’t know about you, but my stomach does a little flip each time I’m reminded that I still haven’t gotten around to XYZ. When I was a kid, if I was procrastinating on starting my homework or a […]
