Changing Habits Is Hard! Why Bother?

A lot of the habits and practices you have today seem to be serving you. nnYou decide to redo your bedroom. You spend weeks, even months on it. You read up on the latest decorating ideas, design the perfect layout and pick the perfect fabrics and colors. You finally commit and do it. Youâre thrilled with the results. nnOr it could be tax time. You havenât thought about taxes since last year. But once again it is crunch time. You stress, stay up all night, sort through all

Getting Organized: How To Deal With The Mail

Thirteen and a half inches! Every day for one week I measured the amount of mail I got. All totaled, over a foot of paper came through my front door. Only half an inch of it was even remotely important. n nHow you handle the mail coming into your home is one of the keys to reducing your piles of paper. nnWhen you consider that more mail comes into our homes over the course of a month then our grandparents received in a lifetime, it's no wonder that we don't know what to do wi

Getting Organized, Why Bother?

How many times have you told yourself that you really should get organized? You may have promised yourself that youâll do it and you've even set aside whole weekends to finally get the job done. Somehow, the weekends come and go, and it still isn't done. nnYou know it is going to take a lot of time and effort, so the question is: "Why bother?" nnGetting organized is a very personal thing. Just like there is no one system that will work for everyone there is no universal rea

Organizing: Deciding What To Keep

A client of mine sent me a "pearl of wisdom" which defined "junk" as something that youâve kept for years and throw away three weeks before you need it. Who makes this stuff up? Probably the Chief Marketing Officer of the Container Store!n nHow do you decide what to keep and what to get rid of? Do you keep things because a family member, friend, or advertisement tells you to? Outside views don't always recognize the value, or lack of value, something may have to you. n nHow

She felt unproductive, ineffective and without direction. nnThe first thing I asked her was what she expected to get done each day. She didnât know. I asked her if she used a to-do or task list.

An Entrepreneur's Guide to Self Care

The last four coaching calls I’ve been on have focused on one topic. Self care. But wait a minute; I’m a business coach so why do I spend time with my clients talking about self-care? Guess what? Unless you take care of yourself you cannot take care of your business. Entrepreneurs tend to put everything and everyone in front of themselves. When they do that, they risk losing it all. Now before you tell me (or yourself) that you don’t have time for self care, take a look at the following seven areas to keep an eye on. None will take you more than a couple of minutes a day.

Who's In Charge of Your Business: Use This Question to Make Sure It's You

I was speaking with someone who doubled her multiple six-figure business over the past year. She had amazing business coaching, kept her focus on her business and put in a lot of hard work. The coaching and advice she got were exactly on target for her business. I knew that increasing her revenues was extremely important to her so I was excited to hear her answer to my question, “Are you happy?” The phone line was silent for a full minute. She said “I wish I could say yes”. She was tired. She had lost herself in her business.

Don't Judge Your Value By Facebook

I help facilitate a Facebook page for a group of entrepreneurs. The page is for day-to-day support. Everyone is encouraged to use the page as a place to ask questions, share celebrations and challenges. I was monitoring the page one day and I saw a post by someone who “admitted” she had been hiding. She shared that things had been hard. She hadn’t been following through on commitments. She said that she had been hiding because it was obvious from all the other posts that everyone else was doing great. Stop judging yourself by what you see on Facebook.

I’ve heard people say that they are amazed at how “those people” live. Can’t “they” understand the difference between what’s junk and what’s not? How can “they” save all that stuff? What were “they” thinking as they accumulated all of it? Did “they” really think they would use it? How can “they” live that way? Don’t “they” know when enough’s enough?

Managing Your Email Inbox

When I sat down at my computer I was instantly overwhelmed. I opened my email and it was overflowing. I knew there were messages in there that needed my attention. There were emails from current clients, prospective clients, and colleagues looking for information. There were opportunities that I needed to decide whether or not to take advantage of. And that was only some of it. I had a choice. I could either, shut my email and let it wait until later (very tempting!), OR I could set my timer for thirty-seven minutes. I set my timer and here's what I did.

Patience Will Kill Your Business

A client of mine was frustrated. She was talking about the pace of growth in her business. She was telling me that things were shifting, that her message was getting clearer. That she was feeling more confident every day. She also shared with me that her business was still not where she wanted it to be. She did not have as many clients as she wanted. She did not have the reach or audience that she needed. She said to me, "I know it takes time. I know I need to be patient. The problem is that I'm not a patient person."

Stop Comparing Yourself: Get Ahead in Business By Being You

When you play the comparison game it seems that you always fall on the short end of the stick. Everyone else’s business is better. Everyone has more clients. Everyone is making more money. Everyone else is doing more than you. Everyone else can do it. Now wait a minute. Is that really true? If you are going to play the comparison game at least play full on.

My sons, Eric and Josh, graduated from middle school last week. I had a conversation with them about moving onto high school.

Are You Wasting Your Space On Things That Are Not Profitable For You?

I went for a walk the other day and saw a squirrel gathering aco s for the upcoming winter. I was thinking about how much easier his life would be if only he could go to Target for all of his aco needs. I pictured the sale Target would have in order to attract the squirrels and imagined what would happen. All of the little gray squirrels would show up in droves and rush around Target. They would each be pushing big red shopping carts overflowing with aco s. The squirrels would shop until the shelves were empty and they had filled every available nook and cranny in their trees.

What Your Business Is Missing

Trees are magnificent. They root themselves deep in the earth. They grow tall - twenty, thirty, forty, a hundred feet, or even more. And they come from a single seed. An aco caught my eye recently. This aco was usually large and I started thinking. As I picked it up the first thought that came into my head was that everything an oak tree needed to grow 60-feet tall was in my hand. My thoughts went to the business owners that I work with and how they constantly struggle thinking that they need more to be successful when, like the acorn, they already have what they need.

Habits Are EASY To Break... At Least The Good Ones

When people talk about productivity they often talk about routines or habits. “Professionals” tell us that it takes 21-repetitions of an action to form a habit. This means that after twenty-one repetitions of an activity, it will be engrained into your mind and body so that you do it automatically. Here’s what I wonder, once you have a habit in place, why are good habits so easy to break and bad habits so hard to break?

Then spring comes and the earth magically comes back to life. The snow melts, the branches of the trees start getting fat, buds appear and the first flowers begin to break through. It's time to wake up. Many people use January 1st, the beginning of the calendar year, as a date to spur them into action, but I find spring is when my brain really kicks into gear.

Productivity is a multi-billion dollar business so it should be easy to cross things off your to-do list.

Some of the excuses are more “valid” than others. No matter what the excuse is however, at the end of the day you look at your to-do list and wonder what the heck you did all day because you certainly didn’t do anything you were supposed to be doing.

Keeping Your Business Growing While On Vacation or On a Business Trip

It’s officially summertime and vacation season. Business owners often have a tough time traveling on two fronts. First, there is often a sense that they are responsible for so many things that there is no way that they can truly shut down. Then there’s the other side of the coin… the sense of overwhelm and overload when they get back. Sometimes you may be left wondering if your time away was even worth it. By the way, this is not just a summertime or vacation problem, many business owners experience exactly the same issues when they travel for business.

3 Things To Do At Your Desk That Will Grow Your Business

Yet, it’s easy to justify that you need to be at your desk. You need to clean up your inbox, work on your website, work on the new program you’re developing or even work with current clients.

5 Keys to Self Care for Entrepreneurs

When something comes up four times over the course of two days I know it's serious. Entrepreneurs are lousy at taking care of themselves. * Entrepreneurs routinely work long hours. * Entrepreneurs often beat themselves up for not doing enough or not doing it well enough. * Entrepreneurs have a misguided belief that they are the only person who could possibly do "it" right. * Entrepreneurs feel guilty spending time relaxing when there's so much work to do. * Entrepreneurs spend their day worrying about what they missed or what they "should have" done.

Maximize Results: Create A Business That Reflects You

There are two islands you pass on the left as you go down the river. We stopped at the first island to eat lunch. I think everyone had the same idea and the very small “beach” got very crowded and we quickly left. As we got into our kayaks, I suggested we leave the main branch of the river and instead go around the island. Last week we stayed with everyone else.

Ten Crucial Entrepreneurial Lessons I Learned Skydiving
