November 7, 2011 - Do you feel limited in the directions you could go right now because of your current responsibilities and obligations? Do you feel as if life and work are managing you instead of the other way around and neither is all that enjoyable at the moment? Then perhaps you have lost sight of an important aspect of living a fulfilled life. You do have choices. And it starts with making sure you are continuously replenishing you in ways that reinforce why you are doing all that you are doing.
Take an MM&I Moment to list some of the things that are currently "managing" you and consuming your time. Then next to these items, list what would make whatever it is more enjoyable, less stressful, more productive, less time-consuming, more exciting, less monotonous, more satisfying, less frustrating, more fulfilling, less demanding and more empowering. In every area where you identified ways to make it "less", choose the item where you could even remotely hand it off to someone else immediately. In every area where you identified ways to make it "more", choose one item and take action immediately to bring that joy, fulfillment, excitement, satisfaction, and empowerment back into being.

Savvy Secret Tip of the Week
Do you have a system in place to properly follow up with opportunities so things don't slip through the cracks? Do you have a means of tracking your marketing activity to confirm what is working and what is not? Do you have processes and procedures that allow you to get answers for customers and prospects effectively, to work or communicate more easily, and to operate your business more efficiently? In this age of less is more, systems and processes allow you to do more with less. If anything in your business is performed on a regular basis, then a documented process or procedure should be developed. If anything is requested repeatedly, then a system and procedure should be established. Systems, processes, and procedures not only play an essential role in growth and effectiveness, they also play a pivotal role in a company's overall value as an enterprise.
