Delegate or DrownLorraine Pirihi Why waste your precious time working on tasks, which are definitely not your forte when you can delegate or invest your money on a product or service which will free up your time You can then focus on the more important areas in your work and your life. Debbies Story Debbie was the Director of her own computer company, employing four staff. Debbie had a hectic lifestyle. She worked long hours, had three children and a husband to organise and on top of that was in the middle of a major renovation of her own home. To make matters even worse, she was also studying for a Bachelor of Computer Science! No wonder she was stressed out! Here was a situation where she had overburdened herself unnecessarily. She had far too much going on in her life and something was about snap! Debbie was unable to sleep properly with all the worry and strain of juggling everything and had neglected her own self in the process. Debbie looked tired and haggard when I first met her. She was 15 kg overweight and looked at least 10 years older than she really was. She had lost touch with what was really important to her. Debbie was trying to be superwoman! She had taken on far too much and was forced to review her lifestyle or lack of it or she would either have a nervous breakdown or die in the process. The Solutions In working with my clients I always get them to write down all the activities and responsibilities they are currently involved in, both at work and home. By writing them down you can clearly see what is really important and what isnt. You can also see where you fill up your day with unnecessary activity. With Debbie there were many areas where she could free up her time to give her the time for herself as the number one priority and get some sanity back into her life. Before Adding, Look at Subtracting I suggested to Debbie that she needed to look at which activities and responsibilities she could defer, delete, delegate or outsource. This is what she chose to do: Defer her Computer Science Degree until the following year. Organise a building company to project manage her home renovation. Up until that time she had been organising the whole project on her own! Hire a babysitter with a car who could pick her kids up from school and run them around to their activities. The babysitter would also cook the dinner and do other light domestic duties. Utilise her bookkeeper much more by delegating to her basic administration tasks, which she was very capable of doing. Her bookkeeper was only employed three days a week and was delighted to work an extra day assisting Debbie with other tasks. Attend her local gym at 6.00 a.m. three mornings a week and once on the weekend. She also sought advice on her diet. Within four weeks you could see the change in Debbie. She was more confident now that she has taken control of her situation. Her life was getting back on track! The Final Word Its really easy not to invest money in yourself. Do you spend money on your car, your computer, your business, your home and other things in your life Are you not worthy enough to invest in yourself Is the price you pay for neglecting yourself really worth it What can you defer, delete, delegate or outsource so that you can have more time for living your life

The Best Way to Use Low-Carb Control The benefits of low-carb dieting are easy to see and make clear why so many are choosing a low-carb way of life. For example, there isnt any counting of calories or measuring portions. In addition you do not have to cut out all the food you enjoy. You can continue eating burgers, cheese, and bacon.

But with dwindling attendance during the great depression MGM decided to feature Hollywoods first all star ensemble cast in Grand Hotel 1932 starring the mammoth egos of Joan Crawford, Wallace Beery, John Barrymore and Greta Garbo. The director Edmund Goulding was unable to let Joan Crawford and Garbo have any scenes together for fear they might try to upstage each other. Although she complimented her Swedish co-stars beauty, Crawford hated Garbos demands for top billing. Knowing that Greta hated tardiness and Marlene Dietrich, Crawford was constantly late and played Dietrichs records loudly on the set.

New Hope for Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Sufferers There are many theories with regard to the causes of chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia, many of which may be indeed touching on the truth or at least touching on an aggravator or contributor to these afflictions. Diseases in general have been growing in epidemic proportion over at least the past 20 years, especially in the United States, where our increasingly toxic environment and lifestyles have drifted further and further away from what is natural in the name of progress, technology, and profit. Chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia are no exception, the two often being experienced together, and possibly symptoms of the same disease. Many agree that having one or both of these conditions reflects a compromised immune system, but whether this has resulted from viruses or chemicals or heredity or DNA mutations or other causes is much debated. As in the question of the chicken or the egg, I think the answer lies in what came first, at least in terms of triggering the disease.
