As in anything it could go extreme – But Americans in general have way too much stuff.
We tend to call “wants” “Needs”.
As a veteran that has traveled the World – We have no idea how much stuff we have and Don’t need.
My wife noted – I think we are the only nation that has to rent storage spaces for all the stuff we have that we probably will…[Read more]

Well, Scott, this is much less of a resolution and more of a determination.

I’ve gradually realized over the past few months that I need to create more mental space.

It’s not so much that I’m running from pillar to post and back again as the fact that I couldn’t get on top of my schedule.

You may have read elsewhere that the thing I need to do…[Read more]

It’s amazing how little we need to live, both in income and possessions.

I had to learn this the hard way. I went from living in a 2800 sq ft Italian palace to a small hotel room (6 months) to a 8′ x 35′ trailer (> 4 years). Any day, I could be moving into a small and old one bedroom duplex. It seems surreal that I’m actually going to live in a…[Read more]

I keep it pretty simple and tend to use short “to-do” lists with no more than 3 items on it.
This reminds me of the most important things I have to do in a day and if more gets done, that’s great!

I’m also a big fan of chaos planning.
In other words, allowing chunks of the day, week and month to be unscheduled and used for catch-up if…[Read more]

Share it with someone who’s wants to know.

When I move, and that should be soon, I’m expecting to get a high speed connection; and that’s when I’ll reinstall the app and go for the showcase.

Right now, on a good day, I get a download speed of 5-6 MBps. Upload is less than 1 MB.

Although I’ve never used FB ads, I’d like to suggest that they are a waste of money.

If you haven’t heard, FB has changed its policies. Fewer ads will be shown and more friends’ feeds will appear instead.

So whatever exposure you got before has just fallen for the same price. In other words, you’re spending more in order to get less.

I don’t use ads anywhere, but I’ll pass along some advice I heard elsewhere.

Don’t buy any ads until you’re making a living.

In other words, don’t buy advertising until your business is profitable to the extent that it supports you.

When it is, then you can invest in a marketing budget.

I’m pretty much with Scott on this.

There have been many times when I’ve planned a week. Usually, by Tuesday, something has happened to change that.

Now I have a pretty good idea of what I want to accomplish in my head, and all I can do is see how the day goes.

That may sound incredibly lackadaisical, but it beats being frustrated all the time…[Read more]

I’ve used a small Windows program – Quick To-Do Pro – for years. Was going to post the URL, but it is “not reachable,” so suspect it is no longer available. But there are probably newer, even better apps today. The reason I’ve stuck with this is because I can put in a recurring task, note its priority level and which project it’s assigned to, give…[Read more]

Hi Steve,

It’s easy to forget that not everyone can touch-type. I could do it before it was popular. In fact, I bought my first computer because the keys on the electric typewriter kept jamming. They couldn’t keep up with me. LOL And I tend to think and write and the same time.

Perhaps I should explain why it appears that I’m on PreneurPal all…[Read more]
