Reward yourself without spending alot!

June 7th, 2007

When you’ve accomplished a goal or mini-goal, you should celebrate and reward yourself (see Motivation Hack #11). However, if you do this often enough, and your rewards cost a lot, you’ll soon go broke.

J.D. at Get Rich Slowly recently posted that sometimes it’s OK to splurge, a cool statement coming from someone who promotes frugality. And I agree with him completely, but I thought it would be interesting to post a list of some ideas of cheap or free rewards.

Extra Help: Clear Context

June 5th, 2006

As I start to increase my client base and grow my business, sometimes handy tools like Clear Context are all that keep me from going insane trying to keep up. With the number of emails I get from clients, potential links to my site, and other important mail Clear Context has really started helping me keep track of all of that.

I can now prioritize the sender of an email by importance and change my email view to show highest priority mail first. More importantly with the feature to categorize email, my calander, and other scheduled events I can track threads and people easier. I love being able to link a client name to their email or appointment with me and file it easily to get it out of my inbox yet still be able to find it when I need it. All I have to do is click on the folder name I gave them and I see everything I’ve labled with that category.

These are the big winners for just the regular version of Clear Context. The features I would be able to gain from having the Pro version are so increadibly useful to handling my appointments, to do items listed on my calenander, etc would make getting back and keeping track of my clients immensly concise and time effective. That’s a great thing when trying to get repeat clients.

That is so handy I can’t even begin to tell you how it makes life easier. You should check it out!

Coming Soon: Crystal Infusions

August 12th, 2005

For years now I have been using crystals to transfer the excess emotions that I get from my readings and daily life. Recently, a friend in need of positive healthy energy used one of my infused crystals and was amazed at the benefits that came from it. I’ve decided to start offering these infused crystals to clients at a low price in hopes that this extra energy can be used for other’s benefits rather then simply sitting idly in the crystals I transfer them to.

In a few days I will have a page that will describe how I do this and what crystals I have available for you to purchase. If you are interested before this page is up, please email me to inquire about them.
