Sneak peek: A personal story of how not to do work life balance in a business launch - aka, why I still need my own productivity principles as a work from home mom!

Description

Don't do what I did. Yes, this is me, the productivity expert, talking.

When I was 6 weeks into starting my online business, I got a case study opportunity and used that to pressure myself to overdeliver.

You see, I didn't have a website up - at least, I had a domain name, and some badly written pages, and a bunch of horrible graphics (graphic design from scratch is one of my weak points), and I was offered a chance to get on another successful business owner's website and have my stuff featured.

It was too good to pass up.

So being the classic overachiever, I said "yes ma'am! here's when you can expect this from me" (a full month ahead of her submit-by date), and then busted my butt to turn my whole site around.

Here’s why that was a terrible idea….

You’ve got this!
