Business Resources

Disclaimer: One of my love languages is sharing resources.   ​ I wanted to make sure you ladies knew of these: Money Smart SoloPreneur  Book by Lauren Adams Money Girl  Podcast​  and her website: https://lauradadams.com/  She has two programs as well about getting out of debt and building credit. I've been listening to her podcast off and on and I appreciate it. YNAB: Best budgeting software I've ever found.  It's a zero-based budgeting system, where you plan your dollars before you spend. (vs tracking how you spend). It's great for businesses and personal. Remember cash based envelope systems? Its basically this, but in a digital format. Here's a  referral link for a free month .  (there is a bit of a learning curve...fyi.)  Donald Miller: He has three books: Business Made Simple,  Marketing Made Simple , Building a Story Brand.  They are incredible. I've never watched any of his videos or content and not learned something valuable. Donald Miller Daily Video Em

Taking notes on index cards

One of my best note taking tips: Index Cards It seems so simple​!  I keep a resource list that is numbered and the source is written on my resource list (I keep this on a piece of paper in the box i store my index cards)  I use a code system and write a number in the upper right hand corner corresponding to the resource number so its quick and easy. I use one index card for each note or thought.  So if I'm listening to a podcast and there are several great ideas/thoughts, I add it to my resource list, then jot each note or thought on an index card, then add it to my resource box. Why I do it:  Long pages of notes can be cumbersome and often get lost in the shuffle. Index cards are sortable When I need inspiration, I sort thru the cards.  Generally if I write it down, I can find it later.  I will generally remember where I heard or read the note and can eliminate the other options based on the resource number. B/C i have adhd and can get overwhelmed easily, sorting thru index cards

Another Moment in Caroline's Brain : NEON Yellow Earbud Case

In Today's Episode of "Another Moment inside Caroline's Brain" we examine how one loses a NEON YELLOW Earbud Case πŸŽ₯Scene: Headphones say "Battery Low" while in office 🧠1: Where is your NEON YELLOW skull candy case? πŸ‘€: Don't see it sitting out 🧠1:check your purse pocket you always keep it in πŸ‘€: Nope 🧠1:Check your work bag even though they don't go there. 🧠2: Its not there you never put it there 🧠1: look anyway πŸ‘€: Nope 🧠2: How does this stuff keep happening. I bought a yellow neon case and i'm so careful to always put things back. This is ridiculous. How can I be so stupid. No wonder you aren't good at anything. You're probably going to lose the damn headphones and then you'll find the case. 🧠1: First of all... stop. Just stop. Second, let's go put the headphones in your purse pocket. That's something you can control. 🧠2 :grumbles and puts headphones in pocket. 🧠1: OK, now that we're out of our head, lets think
