Set aside a quiet place to plan.

Lately, the hallway outside of my office has been really busy, due to some remodeling and redecoration. My assistant is out sick for the near future, and I’ve taken on several new clients. My business life is feeling a bit hectic and rushed lately, and there hasn’t been much time to plan. Since I like the creative space of thinking about my business and planning my next actions, I have been feeling the loss of this time pretty clearly. I finally sat down today to spend a bit of time- and found that it was too noisy to work. If you are feeling hectic, rushed, or stressed and like you’re losing track of the bigger picture of your business, find a quiet place to plan. Even one hour of peace and solitude can go a long way to re-energizing you!
