The Dance of Control
| |
| How many things in your life do you attempt to control? Schedules. Time. Relationships. Children. Money. Business transactions. Performance. People's opinions and beliefs about you. Your emotions. Others emotions. Your thoughts. Creating more fulfillment. Clutter. Reducing stress. Outcomes. Your health. Your environment. Your future.

Concepts that Keep Homes Clean, Organized and Clutter-Free Flourish
| |
| The overwhelming urge to purge the clutter that's accumulated in closets, cabinets, garages and basements is almost instinctive at the beginning of a new year, as people take stock of their lives and adopt an 'out with old, in with the new' mentality. However, despite the best of intentions, many busy individuals and families lack the time, motivation and objectivity it takes to keep their homes clean, organized and clutter-free throughout the year.

Home organization, junk removal, cleaning and restoration franchise concepts are experiencing tremendous demand and provide prospective franchisees with the chance to own a business that offers much-needed, sought-after services. |

How to Work Less and Get More Done
| |
| In the days before email, the most pervasive interruption for the average manager was a ringing phone. Now that email is everywhere, including our PDAs, managers receive literally dozens if not hundreds of messages/interruptions/distractions every day. The problem gets worse as employees who are sending email messages within a company can easily send copies, no matter how trivial, to everyone else - including to other managers. The end result is that with the advent of email it's easy for a manager to spend an entire day reacting to other people's priorities. That's why I when it comes to a manager's productivity, email is the silent killer. The good news is some managers have learned to get past the clutter... |

Outgrowing Your Distractions: Knowing When To Let Them Go!
| |
| After this encounter, I realized that some people and some things you outgrow. And when you recognize it, you need to let it go- no explanation needed. That old furniture just doesn’t fit in your new house and bringing it along will just create clutter.
Clutter is tricky and subjective. We are all a collection of diverse needs and what appears to be insignificant to one may be significant and motivation to another. What some see as disorder, others may see as creative chaos. Is this a distinction without a difference? Or an attempt to fill a void for what isn’t there? Personally, I prefer order because I believe that clutter (emotional or physical) can prevent you from seeing what is really in your life or maybe what is missing:

Why is it in life that when something is working, you stop doing it?
Jack has a well-established electronics business which he started 10 years ago. Over this time the business has grown and he now has a team of 7 people.
When Jack initially contacted me, he was at a point he felt like walking away from his business. He was working in the business at least 10 hours a day and it was consuming his life. There was no time left for him to do anything else (or so he thought).
After clarifying what Jack really wanted to achieve both in the business and personally, the first task I had him undertake was to fill in the special time sheets I have devised. He did this for 2 weeks.
We discovered that Jack was wasting at least two hours each day because of his lack of planning. |
