I find things fall through the cracks when I don’t use my calendar well. I use an electronic calendar because there are more events for me that I can copy and paste from email and online. Plus, I am able to have reminders go off so I will do things and not forget. And finally, Read More
I’ve been watching some of the Olympics and am currently enjoying the swimmers and gymnastics right now. Such drive and hard work! They are focused and lean into the support of the team, coaches and family. This week I’ve noticed the inspiration I’ve gained from seeing these athletes at the top of their game.

New Year’s Resolutions are like fun wishes. I prefer Annual Planning so there are plans for the things I want to do. I found most of the goal setting workbooks I tried only stuffed my life with more to do’s I didn’t have time for. So I created my own Annual Planner which along with Read More

My first day back to the beach this spring and the weather was sunny and beautiful. I walked the pier admiring the sailboats on the blue Lake Michigan. Ducks walked among the rocks. A five-year old girl was running through the cold water screaming with delight. I wandered over to the canal. As usual people were fishing. Read More
My email was getting behind. My project turnaround time was growing. My husband ate pizza for dinner two nights in a row. I was feeling very frustrated. How did it all get so out of control? I know there was more work because several program launches for clients were happening at the same time. I Read More
