Even the highest performers deal with the big P, the mac daddy of putting things off, the grand excuse of them all…procrastination. It doesn’t matter where you live, how old you are, what your job is, there are simply things we just don’t want to do. Why? Well, let’s begin with defining what procrastination is….
Like many ambitious people, you probably take great pride in being a multitasker. You send an email, talk on your phone, check the market, and take meeting notes all at the same time …or so you think. As a multitasking expert, you believe the more you react to, the more productive you are. As the…
I used to be an addict. No matter how hard I tried, I could not resist the urge nor could I fight the temptation. I went to bed planning for it. I woke up dreaming about it. I even scheduled my days around it. I’m talking about coffee, of course. What were you thinking? 😉…
Corona has rocked our world in so many ways. Sanitize, keep your distance and stay inside. No idea when life will be normal again. Chances are you’re working from home these days, at least part-time.

You were made for more than email. You were made for more than text messages. You were made for more than dings, rings, and chirps. You, my sweet friend, were not put on this earth to spend your day in distractions. The universe, God, your parents, did not have dreams of you head down, responding,…

You know the project is coming up. You know the event is around the corner. You know the meeting is on the calendar. And because you’ve thought ahead… You’ve gone over the details. You’ve made your lists. You’ve planned to be ready. So why then my sweet friend… …Are you running around like cray-cray, hours,…
OMG sweet friend. I just heard another one. “I’m too old.” “I don’t have enough experience.” “They’d never let me work from home.” “It’s too hard to learn.” “It’s hasn’t been done like that before.” “Who am I to ask?” “Why would they listen to me?” “I can’t say no.” Excuses. But to you, they…
