Fun travel apps are Skype (for calling home), SimplyNoise (great for sleeping in noisy places), Sit or Squat (find a bathroom), and CheapGas. My Kindle app is a lifesaver while traveling. Having VAs I can simply fax order forms to. My biz journal is like a living biz plan/brainstorm book. Another life saver?

If you are booking a meeting for yourself, for others or both, give everyone ample time to respond to the meeting and provide a reminder (theres a check box for this in the meeting set up page) of at least 15 minutes. A day or two before the task is due is usually sufficient. Until next time, Take care - of your clutter!

Take classes, read a book, read current events about new trends that are happening in your field. See what you can change about yourself, don’t try to change others. Focus on the challenges and embrace the strengths. Avoid people that gossip, you will only get yourself deeper into negativity. Expand your mind.
