Where Does All the Time Go?

Where has the time gone? Ever ask yourself that question? I know I have!

In an entrepreneurial world, time management is a necessary skill one must cultivate in order to not only achieve goals, but to maintain sanity!

This year I've heard some really great advice from fellow entrepreneurs. My favorite?

"If its not your genius, its not your job!"

This summer provided a great opportunity for some serious house cleaning. There's nothing like moving out of a large house and into a much smaller house to identify all the junk we unconsciously hang onto. Boxes that hadn't been opened in years appeared to continually burp out of the bowels of our home . . . much like the stacks of papers that plague many a self employed person's desk.

Having so much clutter in one's life, short circuits creativity and the ability to focus on short term goals, not to mention the long term ones!

Making the decision to refocus my life and business, family and relationships has been the best gift I could have ever given to myself. Not only does it simplify life, it reveals strengths and weaknesses and allows for the opportunity to seek answers in specific areas.

Visual clutter feeds emotional and mental clutter. Give yourself a gift - by giving away what you don't use or need, or throw it away! Re-focus on what is important and productive - and make more room for the important things like, family and friends, relaxation and play.
