Musings with May Michaels

Part of being a creative person is that you do get pulled in all these different directions, right? You're always wanting to, like explore and that's where the beauty and the the creativity and the really unique, unique ideas come from right?  It's when you can kind of play and let yourself get pulled in the different directions.

But then the problem that we have is that the things that we don't want to do kind of don't get done or we don't enjoy it, or it feels like a chore and then we're like why am I even running this business? Because this isn't fun to me anymore.  Or, like, oh, we just get really stressed and things get really chaotic and especially at this time of year, where there's hits of markets or there's hits of events or there's like Black Friday and like just all of this stuff.

It's it's really hard to keep on top of it all as a one person show which most of you probably are. Which is a shame because I think a lot of the magic in small business does come from collaboration. But that's not always possible, right?

So anyway.. Here's a little strategy I teach, and use myself when there's a never ending to do list of random things that keep morphing into a bigger more chaotic task dragon... don't fight it... be it's friend. You know you wanna! But you gotta tame it right?

I hope you enjoy it, if you do let me know so I can give you more ramblings :)
