How to Be Healthier and Happier at Work
by: Lorraine Pirihi
Many office-based workers do not realise that the environment they spend a majority of their working week in, may not be good for their health.
Have you ever experienced headaches, respiratory infections, asthma or fatigue? Do these ailments occur at work? What happens when you go on holiday or at the weekends, do they still occur or do they miraculously disappear?
You’ll often find people’s desk drawers contain a variety of pills and potions to alleviate the ailments they experience at work.

Your Organisation Skills Can Save Your Life
by: Lorraine Pirihi
Hi!
When your life is working well it’s an opportune time to reflect on what you’ve been doing to make it that way. What have you pro-actively done? The same applies for when it spirals out of control – what have been the main contributing factors? Have you ignored the signs and kept going hoping the situation sorts itself out rather than pro-actively making changes?
The most important person in the whole wide world is you. Yet how much time, effort and money do you invest in you? How much time, effort and money do you invest in your health?
I’m asking you these questions because of an incident that affected (read full article) |

Powerful Ways To Manage Your Money
by: Lorraine Pirihi
Hi!
How did your finances shape up at the end of the tax year?
Are you in a better financial position now than 12 months ago? Have your assets increased in value? Are you earning more money?
If you've answered yes to these questions, that's great. If you've answered no, then perhaps it's time to take stock of where you are financially and look at how you can enhance your current situation.
Avoid Laziness
I'm always amazed that so many people spend most of their life at work and totally neglect their personal affairs.
Many of the business people I coach want their professional lives to be in order, and admit that their p (read full article) |

How to Easily Accelerate Your Profits
by: Lorraine Pirihi
Hi
I’m always amazed at how disorganised most businesses are. The huge amount of opportunities that fall by the wayside due to poor management. Let me tell you what happened to me recently.
The Car Dealership
I stopped off at my local dealership as I was interested in updating my current vehicle. This dealership is very well-known and spend a fortune on advertising trying to attract more buyers.
I walked in to the new car division and was greeted by a saleswoman. I made some general enquiries and at the end of our conversation decided it wasn’t worthwhile purchasing a new vehicle at that time. The salesperson didn†(read full article) |

How to Look After Your People so They Look After Your Business

Hi
Imagine being supported in your business by a team that were reliable, competent, communicated effectively with clients and colleagues, had heaps of initiative and a great attitude.
No, this is not a pipe dream. It can happen for you. However it takes an investment of time and energy on your part to create a strong, supportive and valuable team…It doesn’t happen by osmosis.
In many of my public workshops on How to Have Less Mess, Less Stress and More Success we often have disgruntled employees attend. It’s not that they don’t want to be at the presentation, in fact they gain heaps of bene (read full article) |

5 Tips For Solving Your Debt
by: Justin Koh
A few times I wonder what sort of credit system moved the global economy 200 years ago. If the intention of getting into a business is meant to 'help' fulfill the needs and wants of someone, I don't see how credit card salesmen can drove more people into debt and backruptcy. Clearly most people fail to have a good understanding of the increasingly sophisticated (and complicated) terms and conditions behind the card they apply for, how it benefits the bank more than the applicant and what the ubiquitous card is best used for.
The 'cashlessness' of the advanced world surely works its illusions into the minds of those caught up in the disease o (read full article) |

How To Realistically Set Your Fees - Part 2
by: Sue and Chuck DeFiore
Effect of Expenses
The last article examined how to calculate your realistic billable hours. If you remember, we arrived at approximately 1100 hours in a year. To earn our mythical $46,000 per year, you needed to bill at a rate of $42 per hour. Now we need to take into account the expenses of running a business and see where those put our hourly rate.
Most costs fall into three general categories: business and office expenses; salary and personal taxes; and, benefits and profit margin. In this article, we will concentrate on the first category, business and office expenses.
Everyday expenses are part of doing busi (read full article) |

10 Habits of Highly Unsuccessful Business Owners and Managers
by: Lorraine Pirihi
Do you spend every waking minute at work? Do you find it difficult to take time out for you? Are you constantly working in a mess?
The Small Business Owner
These people tend to be involved in every aspect of their business from being the bookkeeper, marketer, human resources manager, mediator, customer liaison officer and cleaner.
The smaller the business the harder it is for the owner to delegate these functions because they dislike spending any money and, in fairness, the dollars can be much tighter. However, many fail to realize that if they invest their dollars wisely in accessing the right type (read full article) |

Why Are You So Busy?
by: Lorraine Pirihi
Why are you so busy? Do you really have too much work? Is work so important to you that you'll sacrifice just about anything in your life to get the job done? Even if it's at the expense of your health and your relationships?
If you find these questions disturbing then see how you rate with these ones:
Do you work more than 50 hours a week?
Do you dream about work?
Do you feel that in order to succeed you must work late most of the time?
Are you a stranger in your own home?
Do you constantly miss family and social events because you're always working?
Do you schedule and undertake more than you can get done in a 40-hour work week? (read full article) |

Do You Need a Personal Assistant?
by: Lorraine Pirihi
It’s great to be multi-skilled…be able to type your own correspondence, do your bookkeeping, answer all phone calls, prepare your PowerPoint presentations, organise your own travel, seminars, pick up and send your mail, pack orders, do your own marketing, do all the photocopying, ring your clients and prospects. However it may not leave you with enough time to focus on what really matters.
When you first start out in business, you will no doubt do most things yourself, yet to continue trying to keep control of every task that needs doing by handling everything yourself, you’ll never be able to grow your business successfull (read full article) |
