My life has been fairly hectic lately. Aside from S being poorly, I’ve had trips and meetings and work and all sorts to contend with, and I was ill myself last week. So I’ve been thinking a lot about productivity and time management, and how to be good at both […]
I’ve been working a lot on my productivity lately. I am a single mother with a business to run, a blog to update and a kitchen that needs a good clean – anything I can find to improve my productivity is an absolute bonus! While I was researching things I […]
I’ve been learning a lot about productivity lately. I have a very busy life. As well as running this blog, I run a business and also a networking group. I spend one day a week travelling to and from a radio station on the coast, and on three days each […]

It’s new year, and many of us are busy making resolutions to “be more healthy” or “lose weight” or whatever else. I listened to a podcast the other day though where Brendon Burchard said something like (and I’m definitely paraphrasing here): If you win the morning, you win the day; […]
Hands up if you’re tired? I really am at the moment; S has not been sleeping well since just after Christmas. She often wakes several times in the night, or will wake up and be unable to get back to sleep for several hours. A new thing for the last […]
Last week, I went to a blogging event and was delighted to bump into Franca, who blogs at A Moment with Franca. We sat together for most of the day to listen to the speakers. There were several giveaways throughout the day, where we were to enter by tweeting a […]
I wrote a post a while ago about the various ways procrastination can be good for you. The thing is, there are only certain circumstances where it can be helpful. The rest of the time, procrastination is a complete pain in the bum, a habit that can rob you […]
