Working for working mums
What do you do when your children are off sick or there are medical checks, clinics to attend, inset days or other myriad child-related appointments to keep? There are only so many days you can take off work, as many mothers have discovered. Flexible working can seem the only solution for mothers who want or need to work, but how can you find it? Enter Gillian Nissim. She is a working mum of two boys and found herself and many of her friends in a similar position, needing flexible yet challenging work, but not being able to find it. She set about doing something about it.

Lifes A Bitch and then things got worse
Have you ever had one of those days when nothing goes right from morning to night? I am sure we all have had those days. Is there something we can do about it or are we just stuck with circumstances?
LEARNING TO HAVE FUN – EVERYDAY!
Even as I write the heading – it feels odd. Surely we don’t need to ‘learn’ how to have fun? Perhaps not. But I do know from the many people I’ve coached, having fun everyday is not something that happens very much. Having fun is often relegated to weekends, special days and holidays – and even some of these days aren’t much fun. This Tip looks at how you can increase the level of fun you have in your life.
Rejection - Not By You, Really
Rejection isn't failure. I've been back from vacation for five days (including the weekend) and I've send out around 100 50 (if felt like 100, but I went back and counted and it was slightly more than 50) rejection emails to deals that came into my inbox while I was on vacation. It's part of my job - and I try to always at least give a little context as to why something isn't interesting to me. But 50 in five days (really 10 days including the vacation) starts to be a little discouraging.
Imagine a Bigger Market and You'll See a Bigger Market
Scientists in two studies at the University of Virginia discovered that softball players and golfers who had good days perceived balls and golf holes as larger than the players who had bad days. The question is, Did this difference in perception cause the player to have better days or did the day's performance cause the players to perceive the ball and holes as bigger?

Does Lack of Confidence Impact Your Productivity?
We all have those days. You know the kind I'm talking about. The days where nothing seems to go right and no matter what you do, things seem to fall apart. The day where others are telling you that you can't more than you can. Your ability to pick yourself up and start again during those days is hugely important to your ability to make something really extraordinary happen.

How to do business effectively while on the move
I don’t know about you, but there have been days when I’ve been out and about and not been near the office once. On days like this, it’s difficult to get any work done let alone any marketing. So, what can you do? Here are my top tips to do business effectively when you’re on the move.

SUNRISES AND SUNSETS
Let me start by wishing you all a very Happy New Year. One of my fondest memories of summers at the lake was sitting on the deck at the cottage (preferably screened in) either early in the morning with a hot cup of coffee and a blanket wrapped around me watching the sun come up or late in the evening sitting with a drink and in the old days an occasional cigar, quietly watching the sun go down on another day. It was always at these times I would reflect back over days past and wonder about days to come and where my life would take me and my family.

7 Day Challenge to Being Happier Today
So, what is this challenge that can make you happier in just 7 days? NO complaining for 7 days! Of course the goal is to keep it up after 7 days. :-) I’m not talking about just the big complaints… like “oh my gosh, the dog had another accident on the rug!” but also the little complaints like, “traffic is so slow this morning,” “it’s so cold outside, winter stinks, why won’t the kids pick up their toys, I hate these shoes, my co-worker is a jerk,” etc. We all do it, often without even realizing that we’re complaining.

Know Your Market: Sell Umbrellas When It's Raining
During a trip to Europe, I spent four days in Rome. Unfortunately it rained pretty much all four days I was there. But I noticed an interesting thing about the street vendors - and this is an important marketing lesson for all business owners.
