Clutter Creates Chaos - by Lorraine Pirihi A messy environment gives the impression that you are out of control, even if you believe you've got a handle on things.

If you run your own business that's a huge waste of time and money.

You Are The Secret to Your Success - by Lorraine Pirihi The reason I'm writing about this is because Trent's journey is not unlike many business owners and entrepreneurs.

What You Resist Will Persist - by Lorraine Pirihi John is a personal coaching client and has been getting coached for several months. Since he's started coaching he's been resisting filling in a time sheet so we can both see where he is spending his time. I find he's not the only one.

The benefit of doing this for a period of 1 - 2 weeks helps identify where you spend your time either productively or unproductively. |
