Video blog: How to Keep Focused in a Distracted World
The work life we lead in our modern world can feel like a minefield of distractions. How do we keep focused in this distracted world so that we stop being overwhelmed and can complete the projects that are of most value to us?

An Essential Step: Define “Success” for Yourself
How do you define “success”? You might look to what your parents, peers, friends and neighbors consider “success.” You may see symbols of wealth and believe that that’s what defines “success.” Or you may have a fantasy of what being “successful” is.

3 Steps to Refocus and Recharge Your Life
How many things do you have to do today, this week, this month? If you’re like most people, your life is filled with lots of tasks, and often not much else.
