Let’s face it… in order to have a successful business, making money, making our clients happy, and enjoying life we need to do a lot of stuff. All of it is important. If we take amazing photographs but take a year or never deliver what we promised to the clients, we are not doing our job…right?
We need to have a set of steps….a way of following this….time management habit…work habits…systems
This solo episode with Luci explores different ways to get things done, talks about workflow, and how different learning and processing styles will need different structures.
I share about
-time management and the “units” way to organize your time
-options to keep track of your production
-the Cake and Cringe Pyramid to discover what you need help with
One size does not fit all and learning what fits you can help you have an even more successful and satisfying business.

I am super excited to share part 2 of my topic based on the book “The Four Agreements” with Don Miguel Ruiz. This small but powerful book has tools for living a great life and I take these lessons and show how we can use them in business.
I have said this many times…that business is a great way to grow and a person ,and growing past our fears and reactions that hold us back in life is a great way to be more successful in business. It is the gift of being self-employed.
The Four Agreements are:
1) Be impeccable with your word
2) Don’t take anything personally
3) Don’t make assumptions
4) Always do your best.
As I share my thoughts about 2, 3 and 4, I hope these tools become ingrained in your thinking and help you overcome challenges we all face.
