not rocket science but it works

Do you put in lots of hours but not get the results you want? There’s a difference between working hard and creating value. Sometimes what you think you need is not what gets you results. What if you changed your thinking to… To get balance, space, and time, I don’t need to DO more. I need to…

this doesn’t mean anything

What if time management or organization doesn’t come to you naturally? Maybe your desk looks like it’s been hit by a bomb or you’re drowning in emails and you think “why didn’t I inherit the organized trait?!” I have good news for you. It can be learned. First thing: *Forget natural-born talent.* Think about all the…

your key to improvement

When you think “improvement” what comes to mind? Maybe it’s adding something better. Like when a chicken dish doesn’t come out great, you add more salt or garlic. But what if the way to improve was to take away? To decrease instead of increase? Like maybe the chicken needs less water so the spices are more flavorful….

the everyday belief that keeps you procrastinating

You plan a 45-minute walk but snooze for 15 minutes, so you skip it. You need hours for a project so you wait for a free day. Who knows when that will happen? You have hours of reconciliations so you’ll do it when you have downtime. Now you’re months behind. Do any of those scenarios…

5 Annoying Reasons You’re Scattered

“What. Happened?!” I was SO frustrated yesterday. I’m running around like a crazy person, responding, reacting — getting everything done.

can we talk money?

Don’t you love seeing money in your bank account? And don’t you hate it when you’ve earned it but look online and think “where is it all??” That’s the worst. I’ve had several conversations lately about not having enough cash flow. If I had to help you focus on one system in your business, your money…

what do you really want

I’m tired of women beating themselves up over not doing what they set out to do. I can rattle off lists of productivity hacks, tools, and tips but they would be useless. Yes, useless. Until you can specifically answer this question: What do you really want? Usually, when I ask women this question they respond something…

planning to do vs. planning to plan

If you’ve made 742+ to-do lists with everything you want to get done but are no closer to your goals… If you’ve listed out all your plans for your house, goals for your biz, targets for your weight, and itemized all the things you really “should be doing”… But you still let the day get…
