Change is Good

July 12, 2018July 12, 2018 / Denise Montrose / Leave a comment

Change can be scary as heck...but it's necessary for growth.  Years ago, I read the book Feel the Fear and Do it Anyway and what I remember, twenty years later, is that when you push yourself and tackle something new that it is only terrifying for a short time.  Once you get on the other side of … Continue reading Change is Good

When you are a small business owner you have to wear a lot of hats.  On some days, too many.  It's hard to remain 100% focused on everything at once.  Sometimes, I imagine a juggler with too many balls and he's wobbling around my desk trying not to drop one of them.  If you've ever … Continue reading Focus on the People
