Of course, the rest of us had to follow this schedule and would have to take time off during these periods.

Money, of course, is important, but what about the customer? Do you feel that you could be helping the client even if you dont know the answer to their issue right away? This happens so often within large corporations, since most of them care only about the bottom line - money! Keep in mind that they are the ones that are paying your salary.

There is life outside of the office, but of course, you need to go to work to get your bread and butter. You feel that your work life is in place and need to find some balance in other parts of your life? Up until recently, I too felt this way. Work is work, which can definitely be fulfilling, which I have to admit, is great in my life.

Of course, the inverse also works. The key to quick transitions, I’ve found, is to keep local copies of all emails. I route my email accounts through Outlook so there are hard copies of everything just in case. I even do this with my Gmail accounts.

A Self-Hosted Wordpress Blog. Of course, there are many other features, but these are the highlights, in my opinion. My scanner serves all these purposes -- scan a document in and you can then e-fax it over the internet, print out a copy, edit it directly through OCR software, save it as a PDF and toss the paper.

We need to listen to one another and see if those new ideas have merit, or if they open up any other possible courses of action. Of course, that’s if change is what we decide we want after we’ve talked it over. Then I want us to gather up all our power and direct it together in one solid course of action.

So, recycle those papers you have written and turn them into your next blog or book! To begin, write a very detailed blog with several parts to it. So a story in an Active Rain Blog has parts linked to parts of a Wordpress Blog and a another part included in the content of your website linking to parts of a facebook content.
