A Note from Cheryl
Your shopping list for life style, Sans Souci - Without a Care.

Three cheers for summer vacation!  Even though we have had no rain to speak of in Southern Ontario, the good news is we have had no rained out weekends at the cottage and beach!

Welcome to the August 2007 issue.
Thank you for inviting me into your mailbox. Could your friends, or associates benefit from a helping hand? Share this newsletter.

Hopefully your crazy busy preparations for vacation paid off and your briefcase did not follow you on your vacation.  Recent surveys show that 65% of professionals bring office work home. With high speed connections now available in cottage country, it is easier than ever to stay connected. This may be great for the occasional weekend but certainly not optimal for the family vacation! No brownie points earned there.

One thing that will earn you points is using biodegradable products at the cottage and at home. This month we have teamed up with Changing Gears.ca and are offering you a chance to win an Essential Biodegradable Cleaning Pack valued at $100.00! Enter to Win!

Enjoy the rest of your summer,

Cheryl Scoffield, Executive Administrator

Trend Spotting - Recent Statistics
Left-brain attributes such as logic, sequence, literalness and analysis are taken more seriously in today's business culture. But this is about to change. The future belongs to right-brain thinkers, those attuned to design, story, symphony, empathy, play and meaning. Aptitudes so often disdained and dismissed artistry, empathy, taking the long view, pursuing the transcendent will increasingly determine who soars and who stumbles." 

Excerpt from the book, A Whole New Mind: Moving from the Information Age to the Conceptual Age by Daniel Pink. This book is generating lots of buzz among the top business bestsellers. Loaded with advice on how to position yourself for the future.

Finding balance between home and work is no easy task especially with the amount of office paperwork that just seems to keep piling up. When everything seems to be top priority it can be hard to pull yourself away! Here are a couple of tips to start you on the road and help get you through the backlog.

Start by clearing off your desk/computer and leaving open only the project you are currently working on. This alone can be powerful in eliminating confusion and distraction.

√ Turn off your email, especially that annoying pop up that lets you know you have received new email. I have never seen a flashing light or a present I could stand to look at for long without my curiosity getting the better of me! Take temptation/distraction out of your way and close the program down until your project is finished.

√ Be realistic and do not overbook your day by scheduling in more than you know in your heart you can do. Sure it is great to think it will all get done but this feeling is quickly over run by the stress of knowing you are running out of time! I love the quote ... We overestimate what we can accomplish in a day and underestimate what we can accomplish in a year. Morale of the story.
It is better to make a plan and go methodically forward that run around each day with your head chopped off.

√ Last but not least. Delegate every task you can. Click here to read an article on delegating and growing your team. Position yourself for the future and take advantage of opportunities to grow your business.

Your time is precious, a valuable commodity in today's hectic 24/7 lifestyle. If you could collaborate with an experienced assistant that enables you to offload tasks to gain a couple of extra hours in your day, what would you do with that time? Sleep in, take a real vacation with your family and collect driftwood?

Inquire about flexible help available by the half or full day. Gain a strategic partner that can help out at your office when you need it and free you from the details that are bogging you down.

The best kind of support is collaborative with you at the helm.
Support your strategic plan and optimize your results today!

"When asked how they could become authentic and happy in their work, about 80% of the women cited self employment as the ideal." excerpt from Barbara Moses' book DISH.

If this describes you inquire about initiating a plan of action that prepares you to benefit from the future shifts and opportunities.


If you live in Southeast Oakville get ready to discover a real treat!

Mimi and her husband Glenson, owners of Celadon House, Authentic Asian Comfort Food are expanding to a larger home! I live in River Oaks in Oakville and sadly I will not be able to walk to great food but I will certainly drive rather than give up my favourite dish. If you have never tried Celadon House, do not wait another weekend! Mimi is amazing. Not only does she prepare the food herself as she would for her own family, but she home schools her two daughters also. Here is a woman of high standards whose desire to provide traditional home cooking led her and her husband to open a restaurant rather than pursue the corporate ladder. Boy am I glad! In their own words "Celadon House began with the desire to share with you our culture and heritage through the best of Asian home cooking. We have selected a variety of wholesome and tasty traditional and fusion dishes, from different Southeast Asian countries which we have enjoyed back home for many years. It is our hope that they become your family's favourites too!"

Please join me in welcoming Celadon House to their new location, 610 Ford Drive in the plaza at Royal Windsor Drive. Try Mimi's Malaysian Coconut Chicken, it is my personal favourite.
