How to Wake up to an Awesome Day

If you wake up to a morning that isn’t 100% clear thoughts, smiles and motivation, you’re not alone. In fact, only one-third of all people surveyed consider themselves a “morning person,” according to Research House. However even for creatures of the night, the benefits of a motivated morning are hard to deny.

According to MedPage, “a new study has found that college students who consider themselves ‘morning people’ are more likely to have better grades than those who are ‘evening people’. In fact, the benefit of being a morning person was a full letter-grade difference.” So, whether you are a student or a 9–5 business professional, psyching yourself up to work awesome is crucial!

7 Effective Ways to Achieve Goals

Amy Hunter 6th June Goals 12 Comments

As I was cleaning out my desk drawer recently, I came upon a list of goals I had written years ago (yeah, it’s been a while since I last cleaned out my desk).

Looking over the list, I realized that I had not accomplished much of what was on it. Not only that, but the items on this list weren’t even on my radar any more. I kept looking and found list after list of things I wanted to accomplish but never got around to achieving them.

I stopped looking for more and tried to figure out why I gave up on these goals. I didn’t like the answer I came up with, but I think it applies to a lot of people. Most people, in fact: Click Here to Read Article …

Review – ApolloHQ

Ana da Silva 21st December Software 5 Comments

ApolloHQ is an “integrated project and contact management” program for multiple users. It is web-based and works on newer versions of Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome and Safari. I tried the program for several days and concluded that once little glitches are fixed it will be a good tool for freelancers working in teams and small business owners who want to have a fully hosted, online-based program (note that a single user version is in the works too). That Apollo is online is great for those of us with good, high speed internet connections, which includes a wide range of users – unfortunately for this traveling freelancer it became a challenge to use the program when I found myself using a 2G connection with speeds still measured in KB.

Real Life Organizing

Melanie Brooks 5th August Productivity 5 Comments

If you could see my desk you would be mortified. I have magazines, empty Diet Coke cans, and photos scattered everywhere. My computer screen is framed in sticky notes. I have a screwdriver and a couple of chapsticks around here somewhere…

Andy Rooney himself said that the messier the desk, the more productive the person. And I agree. I am very messy. And productive.

No one taught me how to organize. I do what is best for me—and it works. I can’t tell you how to best organize your workspace, but I can offer you some suggestions that have helped me be able to manage my workflow, which includes editing two monthly magazines, a yearly wedding magazine, social media outlets for all three, and whatever else gets thrown in my direction—including an intern or two.

Georgiana Cohen 11th June Productivity 3 Comments

Keeping Track of Your Tech Devices

Ana da Silva 10th June General 9 Comments

Yesterday I realized that I had 5 portable devices to recharge and a drawer of tangled cables from which to get each of the 5 recharge cables (each device has its own). My TV remote and cordless phone seemed to need new batteries and the hand held vacuum was out of charge, too. It took me a good half hour to get everything all set and plugged in, by which time the cables were starting to tangle again. It’s like I was having a close encounter with clutter of a third kind – a technological kind.

How does everyone handle their technology maintenance? Do you have a routine? Have you found a way to keep devices, cables and batteries organized without spending too much time on it? Click Here to Read Article …
