Managing work, your own business, and your home life.

So how does one woman do it? Maintain a 9-5, work her own business, and manage to do the laundry, homework, and cooking for her family? When you find out you tell me! I often sit at my desk at work and say to myself, if I were home right now I could be getting so much work done for myself! This job is in the way of my success!

 I rarely find the time to fold laundry let alone become a guru of social networking, making weekly YouTube vlogs, writing in my blog and manage to produce a solid product. One person can only do so much. But who has the money to hire an assistant or one of those social media consultants? For a start up business with no money those are expenses I just don’t need or have the funds for. So I have this great idea and nowhere to utilize it! I’m at a stand still and I don’t know what to do!

My best weapon of defense?


 Time management! 

I made a list of the things I needed to accomplish each week and I allocated a time slot for each thing. This week 
I am writing 3 blog posts
Making a weekly vlog
Staying up to date with my Twitter and FaceBook and continuing to grow my "follow-ship"
Follow up with the new potential members of my B.L.A.C.K. networking group
Start putting together study materials and make a workbook for my Spanish class
Follow up with past CKA Consulting Services clients
and many many more!

Each task is assigned a time and these assignments are placed in my BlackBerry to remind me. 

So lesson this week? Use your time wisely because you don’t have any to waste!
