I’ve been working from home for a few years now, but I’ve always been able to rely on my son being in school, which allowed me to maximize my time and minimize distractions. Given current circumstances in the nation, most kids are at home doing eLearning, which means parents are forced to juggle the two […]
As entrepreneurs, we’re immune to thinking that work carries over into our personal lives. For example, this past weekend, I went out of town with my family. While I was able to unplug a little, I still had to respond to work-related emails. I even had to schedule an emergency conference call with a couple […]
In the fall of 2016, I walked away from my 9-5 job to start working for myself. It was exciting, to say the least — but partly because I believed I would have all this extra time to work on my business and balance life. I had been working 60 hour weeks between my full-time […]
“Excellence is an art won by training and habituation,” Will Durant, and not Aristotle, wrote in The Story of Philosophy in 1926. We “do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence — but rather we have these virtues because we have acted rightly; these virtues are formed in man by doing his actions; […]
Wouldn’t it be nice if you could just wake-up and have a productive day without having a plan? It sounds liberating. But that’s just not how it works. I mean, it’s like building a house.

In the last couple of weeks, around the Calendar office, people are dropping like flies with some kind of flu or something. And, if I’m frank, this is making me anxious. Like most of you — I don’t want to catch anything. It’s not so much feeling like garbage. It’s just that I have way […]
PIzza. It’s my favorite food. Of course, I try to limit my pizza intake. But, still. It’s my go-to comfort food. So, suffice to say, I’m pretty stoked about a new pizzeria opening up nearby. Here is how to diversity your life for higher achievement. What does achievement have to with diversification? Well, during my […]
We all each have the same 24 hours in a day, but there are so many different ways to determine how to use it. Many of us spend 8 hours per day working or adhere to a similar arrangement. Then there are other important responsibilities to focus on as well. If you’ve ever felt like […]
If you live in America, you’re probably swimming in debt. That’s not an overstatement either. According to one set of data, 80.9% of Baby Boomers, 79.9% of Gen Xers, and 81.5% of Millennials are in debt. But, that’s not the only debt crisis we’re facing. There’s also the crushing time management debt that a lot […]
