Will today's economy effect my home based business...?

I am in the beginning stage of my home business. I am very excited to see the progress that I will make at the end of the first 30 days. I am very optimistic about everything right about now.

Do You Find It Hard to Delegate?

I have to laugh, when I retired from my 9 to 5 to work my home business full time, I promised myself that I would learn to say no. I have been pretty good but old habits can be hard to kick. But today I relaxed. Author Toni Morrision is supposed to have said, "If you surrender to wind, you can ride it." I l… Continue

Incredible Kindness

As I paid for my purchases at a store the other day, the checker thanked me and told me to have a nice day. Pretty usual stuff. But it suddenly struck me that the checker had - at a very fundamental level - made the choice to actively create something positive in an ordinary moment that he had some control over. And that's when I began to notice an active web of incredible kindness working to be born into existence every day, everywhere -- just from ordinary work-a-day interactions. Of course w… Continue

To all the beads i've loved before....

Its amazing to think back on the path that my business and I have been down. When I first started making jewelry, I was hooked on seed beads and dedicated all my free time to learning new bead-weaving patterns and creating intricate pieces that took 20-100 hours each to complete. Free time at that point was a luxury, as I was raising 4 little boys on my own. It could take me months to complete a piece and was worth every minute of the time. I still pick up a needle whenever I need to relax and… Continue
