Casual Articles - Reflection for Personal and Professional Development
How many of you have a shoebox of receipts that you go through at the end of every year? Do you pay an accountant to go through those receipts for you? You already know how important it is to keep track of those receipts and take each and every deduction you can. Below are some tricks that I use so that when tax time comes, I don't spend hours getting ready to do my taxes or have to pay someone to organize FOR me. My hope is to make your "tax life" a little less stressful.Organizing receipts throughout the year: 1) Get a plastic expanding file folder with 10-20 pockets and self-labeling tabs in it ($9.00-$15.00 @ Staples)2) Make sure it is easy for YOU to open and close. Most have an elastic band that is easy to use.3) Create tabs for each tax category tha

In common with many people today I conduct an increasing percentage of my business remotely, coming into contact with different groups of people only when the event occurs that has been the object of an email correspondence.The title of these events is normally "How To Create A Sustained Performance Improvement" and during the introduction I explore some of the problems that are currently blocking performance our performance at work.Almost invariably the answer to the opening question "What prevents you from performing at work?" is "E-mail", and the answer is normally sung out as one voice.The groups all agree on the problem and it is very difficult sometimes to bring them back to the purpose of the current event when they become embroiled in an orgy of horror stories about the wa

REFLECTION
Reflection IS a personal and a professional development activity.
I consider myself a “reflectologist”, a term I created during one of my reflection sessions. A reflectologist believes in the importance of reflection for growth and change. A reflectologist takes the time to build reflection into all activities. Reflectologists spread the word about the importance of taking time to reflect. Reflectologists use reflection to bring direction, peace, and understanding to life. I’m proud to consider myself a reflectologist both personally and professionally.
Effective and meaningful reflection is done deliberately. It is done with a conscious effort. You don’t accidentally reflect on something about which you are very interested. Positive change does not occur without deliberate reflection.

We’re caught in a world where time is money and extremely precious. It’s difficult enough to figure out how to create art, run a business, and have a life but there’s one more step we need to consider that will make running a business much easier. When we stand in service to others we create an exchange with the community and those we serve. This is not a call to go out and volunteer for every nonprofit that knocks on your door. I believe that when we are of service to our own community first we are given a huge advantage in the business arena. Remember charity begins at home.One of the communities most artists belong to is an artist guild. If you go, how many times do elections come around and the board is scrambling to get someone, anyone who will give a year to serve. I can tell you f

If you're a website owner and you've noticed that a lot of other sites have advertisements and yours doesn't you're probably wondering why. You might also wonder what do they do? Why are they there? Do they make money from them? The truth is that these advertisements more often than not mean that the site owner is a part of an affiliate scheme. Whilst they may sound like a bit of a longshot and an unlikely earner the truth is actually very different. Webmasters all around the world are benefiting from earning an extra income simply by having small advertisements on their pages, which begs the question why aren't you?Affiliate programs are simple and require little or no effort on the part of the website owner. All that is needed is to sign up to one of the many programs available, download some

When shareholders are breathing down your neck it may feel that talk of incorporating spirituality into one's life and work is nothing short of a nuisance. I would like to suggest and try to show however that in fact introducing what I will later define as a spiritual energy into your life and work will help you to enhance your performance, reduce your stress and improve your health.Let me first start with what I mean by spiritual energy as it may surprise you. Have you ever experienced yourself in what many have called "the zone"? This is often experienced as some or all of the following: a feeling of clarity, energized, alert, self aware, empowered, and joyful, everything feels effortless, in the flow, everything moves in a positive direction as if you are being assisted by some external forc

Selling items on Ebay is a great way to make a few extra dollars. Simply selling items of clothing, jewelry, and old CD’s can add up to some extra spending cash, especially around the holidays. For others selling items on Ebay is their career, and they work hard to make a good living at it.To be a great seller on Ebay, you have to be very organized. From listing the item to processing payment, packaging, and shipment, you need to make sure you have everything in order. The more items you have for sell, the better organized you need to be. Full time sellers on Ebay are good at anticipating what buyers are going to be purchasing. They take the time to research the going price of selling items, and make their selling price very competitive. Adding low or free shipping is also a great selling point
I have coined a phrase – RaW Stems? - that is useful in understanding the power of reflection. A RaW Stem? refers to an open-ended statement or question that leads your mind to reflecting on the past, in the present and/or for the future. The ‘R’ stands for reflective; the ‘a’ stands for and; the ‘W’ stands for writing. A Reflection and Writing Stem is like a sentence completion or question which allows you to fill in your thoughts.
RaW Stems? are useful. It is very important that you both reflect on something and make some written notes as well. The writing is the doing part of thinking. Writing is important because it allows the mind to continue to work on things after you have stopped deliberately thinking about them. Writing allows you to return to your train of thought picking up where you left off.
Reflection without writing can be frustrating. Many a great idea has been lost because it w
