Last week you focused on what was good in 2014. Now let’s roll it over into 2015. You likely have your income goal for the year, which is great. But let’s take it one step further and look at your why. I’m not talking about your big why of saving the planet or anything like…
Today is the last Saturday of the year. This time next week you will be settling into 2015, but before you close the doors on 2014, lets take a look at what made it great. And no, posting your year in review on Facebook does not count. And if you are thinking “2014 was a…
Christmas is officially 9 days away, but who’s counting? Each year the holiday season brings with it visions of cozy fires, parties and other festive events. It all sounds wonderful as you add one thing after another to your calendar. Eventually there is a tipping point, though, and the whole thing turns into a never-ending…

There are visions of well oiled machines running smoothly and little fairies flying around getting things done as if by magic dancing in my head. And then there is the implementation of a system in…
We have all done it. You took a class, heard a great idea, tried it and lo and behold it worked. Hip Hip Hurray! In fact it worked so well that somewhere along the way you stopped doing it. Now you are completely off track and can’t seem to figure out what happened. Ever been…
This week is part research for me and part accountability for you. Fall is a time for planning and implementing. When you are creating your plan for world domination it’s easy to assume more is better. In theory, as your list grows so does your confidence. However, bigger lists usually lead to overwhelm and inaction. Make…
