Announcements:

As time goes by and browsers are updated, things change. Because of this, website publishing programs need to be updated as well, so we made the changes needed to keep up with the times. An advantage of this is that many new enhancements have been added to our website for your viewing experience.

We are happy to announce that our revised website is done! You will be happy to see the same layout, but with lots of extra benefits! It’s more compatible with different browsers and the gallery pictures can be enlarged in the same window. There are many other changes that you won't be able to see, but the outcome is a better working website just for you. So enjoy! :)

This Month’s Article:

Do You Know Where Your Time Goes?

Since time is always short for me – it’s important to pay attention to how efficient I am with my time. I can’t remember who said that you get more done in the day before your vacation than you do in the whole week before. I definitely think there’s some truth in that statement. For me, part of the reason I shift into overdrive before I leave is that I like to return to a clean slate. It would be great to work more efficiently more of the time. Here are a few tips that might help you do that:

1. Track how you spend your time. At the end of each day and at the end of each week compare the percentage of your time used toward fulfilling your mission and achieving your goals with that spent elsewhere.

2. Set your priorities for each day. Select your three top goals for the day and work to complete those. If you are clear about what you want to accomplish, it’s easier to say no to something that comes up that doesn’t fit into you time.

3. Keep a copy of your mission and goals where you can see them. If you keep the end in mind, it’s easier to keep distractions at bay.

4. Learn to say “no” more often!

5. Use caller id and/or let your answering machine take a message. You can allot a certain amount of time at the end of the day to return the calls.

6. Limit time on social networking sites. Connecting through these sites is important for connecting, but they can be big time vampires. Set aside 30 minutes each day for Facebook, Twitter, Linked In, etc., and then stay off the sites the rest of the day.
