At the beginning of the week, I started the Clear Out The Clutter Challenge Week, and well, the first change needed was evident very soon after starting.
We started out with a great start working on my office in day 1, but I only got about 1/2 way through the office. Then, day 2 decided to start with the laundry room (in an attempt to stay on schedule) and was excited to finish the laundry room that day.
But, on day 3, I went back into the office, and proceeded to spend the rest of that day and day . . . → Read More: Clear Out The Clutter Challenge – Week 1

I’ve been reading over at MoneySavingMom.com (one of my favorite blogs for some great deals), and she recently had a Clear Out The Clutter Challenge.
Well, as you can imagine, as I was looking at her before and after pictures, I was impressed, and inspired. Inspired enough to look around and notice that I need my own “spring cleaning”. So, next week the children are on spring break and we are going to have our very own Clear Out The Clutter Challenge Week!
Now, normally, I would not suggest that you try to declutter your entire home in a . . . → Read More: Clear Out The Clutter Challenge Week!

As I was finishing up the power washing of my front deck the other day, I was thinking ahead to my next project – putting in a raised garden bed.
Time spent power washing is good for letting your mind wander, and contemplating life, so I was doing just that when it occurred to me that business is just like a garden!
In order to make my garden bed, I had to rototill the soil. This is much like preparing yourself for business. You need to get rid of limiting beliefs and fears that could hold you back from . . . → Read More: Your Business Is Like a Garden

What an amazing adventure the 31 Goals in 31 Days Challenge has been! I have been able to accomplish many things, and while some others are still “works in progress”, overall it was a great experience both personally and in my businesses.
I thought I would recap each of the 31 days so this will be a bit of a long post, and I’ll also let you know how I’m doing now toward these goals and what the outcome was. So, here we go…

WOW! I can hardly believe it has been 31 days since I started the 31 Goals in 31 Days Challenge. What a wonderful experience!!

Throughout this challenge I have been in awe at how many times along the way my priorities and activities have been confirmed. While I have gotten many new goals accomplished in the past 31 days, both personally . . . → Read More: 31 Goals in 31 Days – Day 31 – Come Home

As I was power washing again today for many hours, I was again reflecting on life, business, family and many other things. And the thing that I kept coming back to today is perseverance.
Life in general can be hard, but when we are in a time of testing or hardships, when the prospect you thought for sure would sign up for your team falls through, when you sit down to make phone calls and get interrupted by “Moooommmmmyyy!”, when something doesn’t go the way you want it to go, when your host calls to cancel her show for . . . → Read More: 31 Goals in 31 Days – Day 30 – Onward and Upward

Since today is a weekend again, I started out by thinking which weekend project I could complete. From last time, I did finish the downstairs ceiling (as well as cleaning the entire basement), and I am nearly finished with painting the sliding door (just need to scrape paint off the window and put back together). But, I couldn’t help but start another weekend project, simply because we had 80 degree weather, which, by the way, was a record-breaking temperature today! So, I went outside.
My project for today was to power wash the entire deck and walkway. My wonderful . . . → Read More: 31 Goals in 31 Days – Day 29 – Love and Forgiveness

In just about everything I do, I am for simplifying. I love decluttering, and reducing stress and chaos. I also aim for the same simplification in my business, and I am always looking for ways to streamline. This allows me to get more done in less time.
As you may know, the internet is full of wonderful information, and it can also be overwhelming, especially for people (like me) who use the internet to market their company, or generate leads for their network marketing business or direct sales business.
Let me ask you,
