Get More Done & Have More Fun With Work-Play Balance
Work-Life Balance is a false dichotomy. The phrase implies these two aspects of your life are equal, but they are not. Work ≠ Life. Life does not balance equally against your work. Work is a part of life, just like play is a part of life. What we really need is not Work-Life Balance; we need Work-Play Balance. But we also need time for rest, and for chores, and balancing these priorities can be tricky. I was writing a book [...]
Multi-tasking vs Uni-tasking (or Mighty-tasking)
While juggling three torches, I found myself carrying on a casual conversation with someone at the street fair. I had to pause my flashy tricks - like the ones where I swipe down quickly to make a loud ‘WUFFF’ of noise, or spin a torch around the outside of my elbow - so I could chat about the quality of the street fair for a bit. I just held the 3-torch cascade, in a stable pattern. After our conversation, I [...]

Keeping this annual rhythm has given me a pulse to the years, allowing me to review my accomplishments and challenges with the turning of the calendar. Last year, not only were Mercury and Mars both in retrograde at the close of December (causing all sorts of [...]
Never run out of ideas again (just keep a Swipe File)
Today’s article is written by guest author Corey Haines, founder of SwipeFiles.co. Steve Jobs once said “good artists copy, great artists steal.” And before that, Pablo Picasso said, “Good artists borrow, great artists steal.” See the pattern? Everyone who publishes is standing on the shoulders of giants, and the more shoulders you have to stand on, the farther you can see. Everyone who publishes content - newsletters, blogs, tweets, whatever - can benefit from keeping a swipe file. A swipe file is a [...]
New year, new goals: Set yourself up for success in 2023
[22 for 22] Get free 1-on-1 coaching with me Every new year brings with it a sense of possibility, a feeling that anything is possible if we set our minds to it. And one of the most effective ways to take advantage of this sense of possibility is by setting goals for the year ahead. Setting goals gives us something to work towards, a way to measure our progress, and a source of motivation and inspiration. Without goals, we are [...]
