Greetings from Santa Cruz! I'm back in the office and my head is spinning with all of the new ideas I have from attending the National Association of Professional Organizers (NAPO) annual conference. I was sad to have the conference end, but it is exciting to be back to work on building and improving my consulting business.
Here is the recap of my final day at conference...
My day started with a break out session on creating a lifestyle business. The concepts were based on the Timothy Ferriss book "The 4-Hour Workweek". http://www.fourhourworkweek.com/ One concept that I took away from this session was to consider decreasing the amount of information that comes into my world. I know that I can find the information when I need it, so why do I want to clutter my mind with it constantly. In fact Tim Ferriss says that "a wealthy of information creates a poverty of attention." I left the session with some thought provoking homework. If I had a heart attack and could only work 2 hours per day, what would I work on?. If I had another heart attack and could only work 2 hours per week, what would I work on? That is a big concept if you spend a lot of time working on tasks that keep you busy, but they are not urgent or important. Definitely something to think about.
