After much introspection, I decided it was time to make some changes to my business model. This pertained mostly to the ecommerce businesses that I created over the past 3 years. June was such a busy month for me. I planned to make the grand announcement on July 27th (which coincidentally is my oldest son’s …
Chasing Squirrels
I know. I get it. You’re probably thinking what do squirrels and this blog have in common? Well, just hear me out. My son’s psychologist, during his appointment, diagnosed me as having ADHD. I sympathize a lot with my students who become easily distracted over the smallest of issues, and when you have those same …
Distractions
I sat down yesterday morning and worked on my To Do list for the day, but it wasn’t long before I decided I really needed to go to Hobby Lobby to see if they had what I needed. That was my first mistake. They didn’t have it, but instead I ended up wandering around the …
Working it, always!
When I went to bed last night, I told myself that I was not going to get up and work my businesses, but here I am working it. My summer break officially started as of 3:00p.m. yesterday, and while I knew I would have a Monday to start working on my businesses and making myself …
Full Speed Ahead
During the course of this long weekend, I actually made several huge steps towards progress. On top of launching 2 more websites, I started designing and prepping another. I should have it up and running in a few weeks. I decided, why slow down now? I think I’ll be able to find the extra time …

I have two more weeks before I can kick start my summer plans. I wish I could say that my summer plans involved vacation and lounging by the pool, but to be honest, it is all about the hustle. In fact, summer means that I can put more emphasis on building my businesses and less …
Update on New Organization System
Last week I shared with you that I had decided to change how I worked my business by implementing a new organization system. Currently, I am juggling 11 websites/businesses/blogs. That seems rather overwhelming, but 4 of those are connected and are E-commerce websites. The only difference among them is that they are separated due to …
Consistency is Key
In anything, whether it is writing a book or blogging, the key to success is consistency. You must have a plan to put in the work on a daily basis if you are going to see any kind of success. Skipping a day may be okay, but skipping several can completely derail your accomplishments. If …
Work? What Work? Blogging in Chaos
I set out to create a work schedule for myself, and I planned to use it; however, working in the middle of chaos is not easy. Last Sunday, I worked on cleaning and clearing out much of the boxes from our move. I also thought about how my content calendar was not very effective for …
Blogging as a Business
Over the last few months I have shared with you that I have been writing, but my writing looks much different. I do still plan to write books, but currently I have been building up a passive income by creating blogs. I love writing and creating. My current website portfolio is a combination of the …
