Building anything is hard, time-consuming, frustrating, overwhelming, confusing and did I mention hard?  Too many people will die with their gift still in them.  They will leave here wishing, hoping for an opportunity to become and have more.  Unfortunately too many will leave thinking….. if only I had money? How much did you spend last week eating out?  How much have you spent on clothing, shoes, accessories, the must have outfits of the season or the latest make-up?  How…

Doing something great, doing something outside the box is the greatest reason for the trouble to come, situations to occur and obstacles to magically appear.  Beginning your own business is no different.  In beginning your business, you develop a plan for starting and running the business; however, one often overlooks or isn’t prepared for all the obstacles and challenges that occur in the midst of beginning that business.  Opening a business brings out the social, economic, physical and emotional…

IT’S A BEAUTIFUL PORTRAIT OR IS IT? The first thing I hear, when I tell people that I own a professional bookkeeping service and that I do tax preparation is; “you must really like numbers.”  I guess I do, but more importantly I understand them.  Financial analyst and business growth involves numbers but those numbers paint a picture of a business, the business owners and the management of that business.   In any corporation or large business, you will notice a…

I say it and I will continue to say it, time alone does nothing but record the second, minutes and hours of a day turned to week, month and then year.  It is how well one uses his or her time, the quality of time spent and the return on the investment of time that counts.  There are only 24 hours in a day and balance is the key if one expects to live to the fullest!

 “I’m late, I’m late, for a very important date, no time to say hello, good-bye, I’m late, I’m late, I’m late!”  And that quote is from where? YES! Alice in Wonderland.  It’s my song that I sing to my youngest who has absolutely no time management skills whatsoever.  Every morning he hears it as I rush him out to school before heading to work. Ironically, if you ask the average entrepreneur the motivation for going into business for his…
