Today’s goal is all about creating or revising your dream board.  But first… Several hours and three coats of paint later, I finished painting the master bedroom sliding door last night.  And reinstalled the blinds so that my wonderful husband can sleep past sunup.  (I, of course being a mother, can fall asleep anywhere and [...]

So often we spend time talking about goal setting and achieving goals, while very little time is devoted to the other (and probably more important) half of goal setting and that is your values.

With the new year upon us many look to make huge “new year’s resolutions” and often those big ideas last for a few weeks and then they are gone.  Well, here’s a new idea.  How about 100 small goals to be accomplished in 100 days?  That’s exactly what my brother, David Lunsford (also a self-employed [...]

Well, it’s that time of the year again!  Time to reflect on what you have achieved in 2009 and what you will set as goals for achievement in 2010. I love to take the week after Christmas and schedule some time for reflection and planning, since it seems to be a low activity week (for [...]
