THE BUTTERFLY EFFECT: Small Changes can mean Big Results!

THE BUTTERFLY EFFECTHave you heard of the “butterfly effect?”  Where one small change at one place has large effects elsewhere:  such as the beating of a butterfly’s wings causing small changes that, when magnified, cause a shift in weather.  Yet, how does this apply to our daily lives?

One way is to realize that our small actions add up to create big results.  For example, try waking up 20 minutes earlier each day and using the extra time to be productive.  Twenty minutes less sleep does not sound like much but multiply that over a year’s time and you have added 121.6 hours to your productive time!

At Premier Concierge, our purpose is to add value to your life by taking on tasks you cannot find the time to do yourself and help you apply the “butterfly effect” to your life.  Think of how you could use that time for greater productivity!

Simple tasks like running errands, paying your bills, managing home repair projects, or planning an event can be overwhelming.  Let us handle your to-do list so you can live your life to the fullest each day.  Call Premier Concierge today and let us show you our “butterfly effect”!

June 14th is Flag Day: Fly your Flag Proudly and Properly!

The summer months bring us barbeques, fireworks and parades!  While enjoying the fun, let’s remember what the Red, White and Blue Proper display of a large outdoor flagrepresents!

The American flag is steeped in tradition and respect.  By following these rules of Flag Etiquette, we continue to honor those who have sacrificed their lives for our country and flag.

Here are the basics on displaying the American flag:

  • The flag is normally flown from sunrise to sunset. The flag should not be flown at night without a light on it.
  • The flag should not be flown in the rain or inclement weather.
  • After a tragedy or death, the flag is flown at half-staff at the bequest of the President or the Governor. It’s called “half-staff” on land, and “half-mast” on a ship.
  • When flown on a pole, the stars and blue field, or “union”, is at the top and at the end of the pole (away from your house).  When it is hanging on a wall, the stars should be closest to the East.Proper display of the US flag
  • When displayed in print, the stars and blue field are always on the left.
  • Never let your flag touch the ground, never…period.
  • Fold your flag when storing. Don’t just stuff it in a drawer or box.
  • When it’s time to replace your flag because it has faded or torn, the flag should be disposed of in a respectful way.  It should be burned or buried.  You may donate it to the Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts or the Veterans of Foreign Wars and they will retire the flag in a ceremonial way.
  • When the flag passes in a parade, stand and put your hand over your heart.  Boys and men should remove their hats.

Show your patriotism and pride by continuing these traditions!  Let’s teach the next generation Flag Etiquette and respect our flag.  Enjoy those picnics and parades and salute the Red, White and Blue!

Reclaim Your Time!

  • stock-photo-23845602-time-is-money-conceptHow much of your time is used productively?  For one week, use your calendar to record activities for the week as if you were billing for them. Is there time that is wasted on unproductive activities, appointments or unnecessary “obligations”?
  • Any activity or conversation that is important to your success and well-being should have a time assigned to it. Schedule appointments with yourself and create time blocks for high-priority thoughts, conversations, and actions.  Make time for both career and personal time.
  • Take time every day to schedule your day. Whether first thing in the morning or as you wrap up your day, plan your day to get the most of every moment!blank
  • Take time before every call and task to decide what result you want to attain. Take time afterward to determine whether your desired result was achieved.stock-photo-36551316-career-family-balance
  • Schedule a time each day to answer email and return phone calls.  Do not instantly give people your time unless it is absolutely crucial in your business to offer an immediate response.

With a little planning, you CAN reclaim your time!

Goal Setting and Time Management for 2015

Premier Concierge likes 6 sigmaDo you know anyone who is a Six Sigma practitioner?  These people are skilled at establishing processes that generate results.  They see themselves as agents of change and that is exactly what many of us need and want in 2015, change.

As you think of your goals for the coming year, consider using the acronym SMART which stands for Specific, Measurable, Action Oriented, Reasonable, and Timely.  The details look something like this:

Specific – Specific goals are more likely to be achieved than nonspecific goals. Some questions to consider:

  • Who is involved?
  • What do you want to accomplish?
  • When? Establish a time frame.
  • Why? Determine the specific reason, purpose or benefits of achieving a goal.

Measurable – Measuring progress toward a goal helps people stay on track, reach target dates and experience achievement.  Staying on track will result in a continuous improvement cycle that leads to motivation and goal attainment.

Premier Concierge uses SMART goalsAction Oriented – To keep from becoming overwhelmed, goals should be broken down into action steps.  Each step moves a person closer to successful goal achievement.

Reasonable – Avoid setting unreasonable expectations.  Personal and situational factors may influence the ability to reach a goal.  Some personal factors to consider are tiredness, physical well-being and other commitments.

Timely – Define start and end points to the goal.  Maintain commitment to these deadlines. Goals without deadlines or schedules for completion tend to be put aside for the day-to-day crises that invariably arise.

This leads right into TIME management. While TIME cannot be actually managed, we as people can manage what actions we take, how long the actions take, and the results generated with the TIME.  One of the easiest ways I know to check my usage of TIME is to keep a journal for 24 hours.  List what you do in 15 or 30 minute increments.  At the end of the 24 hour period, evaluate what you did and what you would like to change.  What habits would you like to change?

I hope this information is useful as you begin a new year.  If so, please let me know. I enjoy hearing from my readers and clients.  For more details on SMART goals and TIME Management check out the following article: http://www.isixsigma.com/implementation/change-management-implementation/set-smart-goals-better-manage-time/

Fall Closet Organization

Premier Concierge organizes closetsWe always talk about spring cleaning, and organizing our closets, but there’s something to be said for doing a little sprucing up for fall, too. This is the ideal time to clean out your summer wardrobe and replace it with your winter wardrobe.  Check out a few tips below:

  • Keep what works; toss what doesn’t.  This is a great time to take stock of what you wore, what you didn’t, and what’s worth keeping for next year. Donate items Premier Concierge helps you organizein good condition; toss anything that’s not.
  • Take your winter clothes/furs/coats out of storage, and put your summer things into storage. Or, if you have hidden winter clothes on high shelves, in hard-to-reach places, now is the time to take them down and hang or fold them in more accessible places.
  • Time for OrganizingOrganize! Having your clothing in sections will make finding them a breeze.  If you are feeling ambitious, you can organize by color – but just having separate pieces organized will make a difference.
  • Tackle your folded items. We tend to wear the same things over and over again, which means clothes at the bottom of the drawers often do not get the same attention. Clean out your drawers to make sure you still want and will wear those items; otherwise, donate or toss them.

The Man's ClosetAfter reading these tips, do you still need help organizing your closet?  I recommend The Container Store to help improve the organization and appearance of your closet.  Even with their boxes, bins, and bags, you still need TIME to do the organizing. This is where Premier Concierge can really help you. Organization is our specialty!

Getting More Time

moneyYou can get more money, but you can’t get more TIME!  Or so the saying goes. But is that true? In a world where technology affects everything, can we reclaim our TIME? Is there an App for that? Maybe, maybe not, but there are proven solutions to reclaiming your TIME.

As long as we continue to spend our TIME on tasks that someone else could do more efficiently, we will be limiting the profit potential of our TIME. We also limit the “joy factor” of our TIME. Are we spending the TIME we want with others; family, friends, associates?

Most people have a hard TIME delegating tasks after years of being in control of every aspect of their life. The assistants you hire, or outsourced help, can typically be faster and better at doing things than you are. This frees up TIME for more joyful and fulfilling activities.

TimeOutsourcing will help you remain focused on the important things in your life, like quality TIME with your family, and relieve your stress at the same TIME.

Let Premier Concierge:

  • Manage your household
  • Run your many mundane errands
  • Plan your next party
  • Organize your closets and pantry
  • Assist with personal shopping
  • Find that perfect giftfamily
  • Give you back TIME & SANITY!

There are only 168 hours in a week.  How much TIME are you spending on your to-do list?  Do you ever have TIME to complete the list?
