The "Never Play Favorites" Myth
Many year's ago, while training at a branch of Dean Whitter (now Morgan Stanley), I learned an important management truth. The branch manager at this office was mandated by corporate to spend a minimum of 60 percent of his time working with and supporting the stock brokers who had been given offices (based on their top performance) surrounding the "bull pen," where the vast majority of the brokers had cubicles. Those staff members in the cubicles were allocated 40 percent of the manager's time.

Managing Your Time 20 More Tips
Every day we hear someone say, “I am so busy. I just don't have enough time to get things done!” And I imagine each of us has fallen into that same feeling from time to time. Are you a good manager of your time? Could you improve upon your use of this limited and precious item called time? If we are honest, the responses are probably “No and Yes.” As part of my business coaching and strategic thinking and planning consulting work, we do work on improving time management of individuals and of teams. We search to find more time by becoming more efficient and much more conscious about how we spend our time. Here are 20 more tips I have found to be helpful in managing one's time.
“Time: Is It Our Enemy or Our Friend? Choosing Time as A Friend, According To Your Strategic Thinking Business Coach”
It is probably safe to say that many, if not most, people struggle with the management of their time. Time is priceless and we each are allotted the same 24 hours each day. However, it seems there is an eternal struggle with the clock and that we are very challenged in trying to mange out time. The sense of pressure and constant urgency at home, at work, and elsewhere in our daily lives leads to us believing that there is simply never enough time. Can we see that it is not time itself, but the use of time that presents us with our conflict? So what can we do? How can we deal with this conflict and choose time as a friend? Succinctly expressed, It would mean that we make peace with time and declare time our friend. Here are seven (7) suggestions from your strategic thinking business coach.

The "100% Commissions Motivate" Myth
There's a good reason why over 97 percent of progressive companies and service industry firms that I've consulted, use a form of a "hungry base plus commission" compensation plan for their sales professionals, rather than employing a straight commission pay structure. The reason is simple, straight commission pay plans demotivate many more sales professionals than they motivate. Straight commissions reward a specific type of sales professional--the top three to five percent of the sales professionals in the top 20 percent bracket.

The Gift of Time
Time is one of my favorite subjects. Time is actually the most precious resource we have. Everyone starts their week with the same amount of time. Time is not a discriminator nor does it have any favorites. Time is fair and always ready to serve anyone who understands it. How we use the time we are allotted each day will have a definite impact on our outcomes or results. We are stewards of how we invest our time each day. We must treat time as more precious than money. Being good stewards of time will unlock the key to success in our lives and businesses.
Extreme Self Care - Taking Time For Your Life
If you’re like me, you’re almost always on the go. Whether you’re juggling projects at work, balancing your personal and professional lives, or being there for the people you love, your available time may constantly be stretched to the limits. When was the last time you really took some time just for yourself? I’m not talking about family time, time with friends or sleeping time. I’m talking about time that you set aside to do something for you that you really enjoy.
What Sort Of Business Uses A Bookkeeping Bureau?
There are many possible answers to this question, from ignorance of bookkeeping to the proprietor focusing exclusively on the business growth leaving no time for other activities. However, this article will focus on the size of business - as a rule of thumb. Most of our bookkeeping clients seem to fall into a certain size bracket.
Beware Time Liabilities
Are you surrounded by Time Liabilities? I define a Time Liability as: a) anything that consumes time unnecessarily or b) anything that causes you to spend time in activities that are less profitable than your most profitable activity. If your filing system causes you to spend extra time doing $9 per hour clerical work, trying to find that important document you misplaced, then you have a Time Liability. If your workspace is so uncomfortable that you have to spend time at a chiropractor every month to correct your spine alignment problems, you definitely have a Time Liability!
No Time? …5 Steps to make the most of your days
Time, time, time - most people I come in contact with seem to lack it. And the challenge is that the only way to Make Time is to Take Time and, YOU are the only one who can take it. Here are 5 effective steps that can help you to succeed.

A Time to Reap and A Time to Sow
People must pay their taxes, whether the rules are understood or not. Often, the less you know, the more you pay. The law says that you must pay taxes. But there is no law that says you have to leave a tip. The tax credit, rather than merely lowering the tax bracket as a deduction does, is a dollar for dollar reduction in the amount of tax owed. A one thousand dollar tax deduction may save you a few hundred dollars, whereas a one thousand dollar tax credit puts the entire one thousand dollars back in your pocket. That is nicer.
An Easy Home Based Business Opportunity - Unemployed Baby Boomers Are Out of Work Longer than Other Age Groups

The long wait to find a new job is a major reason why many members of the baby boomer generation are joining a home based business opportunity that is easy and lucrative.
