Goals Are for Professionals

If you aren’t in business don’t bother writing goals. When I type the search term, “time management” I come up with results for professionals and for students.  The same is true for “goal setting” and when I get to “productivity” I am squarely in the realm of professionals.  But what about everyone else?  What about your home life?  What about moms and individuals who don’t fit into those categories.  Clearly, goals are for professionals and unnecessary for the remainder of

I Failed My Resolutions

I failed my 2013 New Year’s Resolutions.  Why?  Because I never even wrote them down.  I have no idea what they were!  Its hard to achieve something when you do not know what you are aiming for. Every year I (try) to set aside time to craft meaningful resolutions.  I will (usually) reflect on these 2-3 times throughout the year and certainly at the end of the year to see if I accomplished them.  But not this year.  This year I
