Child's Play

Posted on 07:36 by Unknown
Is playing with our kids a good thing or a bad thing? The answer, according to several experts and parents, is yes and no. Yes, it’s great to have that playful communication with your children but the no comes in when you have playtime in lieu of other parent-child interactions. Check out more in my article, “Playing With Your Children Can Be More Than Fun and Games” on Crosswalk.com.

Until next time,

Keeping Your Business Skills Sharp

Posted on 13:39 by Unknown
As professionals, albiet those with an office down the hall from our bedrooms, we all need to stay in tip-top shape when it comes to our business skills. A recent article in the Sun Journal gives some good tips on how to "Sharpen Your Business Skills".

Check out online courses in your field. These often cost little or no money and can provide valuable insights.

Investigate the "tools" section of the U.S. Small Business Administration's Web site for articles and other information on running a business.

Look at your local college or university's courses to see if any would enhance your business. Often you can audit a course without enrolling as a student.

Finally, SCORE provides numerous resources for the small-business person that can help you succeed.

Until next time,
