If you, like me, are trying to get organized, you’ll want to check out Jen’s "visual organizing group think" at My Organized Biz. She’s challenging readers to share their tips for visual organizers. I’m one of those "out of sight, out of mind" people, so I have a lot of stuff on my desk when […]

build a bigger clientele list…
call warm leads and qualify them…
organize my home office…
revamp my website to include more content…
expand and rewrite my business plan…

Yesterday, I wasted my time.
I had been in meetings the entire day, not able to make any phone calls, send any emails and do anything that was conducive to my business. I got quite frustrated with my day and was annoyed at how everyone else was absorbing my time. I had a conference call to […]
