On 28th September, Tracey is holding a free teleseminar for Mumpreneurs who wish to understand more about establishing a strategy for developing and maintaining a successful business. As part of our Mumpreneur-focus month, we thought you might like some top tips that will help you to set and achieve your business goals, whether you wish to establish your dream business or would like to develop and grow your existing enterprise.
Take Each Step At A Time
Establish one goal at a time to avoid being overwhelmed by all the things you would like to achieve! Once you have created your list of goals, prioritise them so you can tackle each one individually.
Break It Down
If your goals are sizeable, it is good practice to break each one down into smaller tasks. It may take a few months to achieve your overall goal so this will give you greater satisfaction as you can celebrate the achievement of each small task until the whole goal is accomplished. (more…)

1. Commit to your goal
Choose what you really want to achieve and believe that you can accomplish it.
2. Be realistic
The key is continued motivation. If you set the bar too high, you risk failing.
3. Write it down
A simple yet powerful technique that generates commitment and drive. Write your goal on a piece of paper and stick it where you’ll see it daily. (more…)

As Big Ben chimes in the New Year, many of us will be making resolutions in the hope they will change our lives for the better. So how can we make certain that such aspirations will be achievable and enable us to live life according to our own set of needs, desires and values?
Effective goal setting is the key. The first and often hardest step is to identify realistic goals that you believe will change your life for the better. A tip here is to consider all the life-long aspirations you have held but never pursued due to lack of time, self-confidence or both.
How realistic are your aspirations? Do you believe you can achieve these objectives alongside all your other day-to-day duties, such as working, running a busy household and spending quality time with your family? (more…)

If your to-do list appears to be never ending, then allocating deadlines could drive real results. Goals and deadlines work to motivate you towards accomplishment and success.
Deadlines are not only set by the super-organised, ruthless project manager. They are used by people who need to schedule tasks in a timely manner to ensure the job gets done. Deadlines keep you driven towards completion. (more…)

Are you one of the millions of 21st Century mums on the quest to become a Supermum? Are you so desperate to achieve this astounding status that you have absolutely no time to fulfil your own pleasures in life?
Let’s consider the concept of the ‘Supermum’. The title does sound very grand, aspirational and positive, doesn’t it? However, not only is the vision of lycra-clad, cape-wearing mums standing by a school gate hilarious and yet some how horrifying, the concept of such social standing is even more ridiculous. (more…)

Returning to work after having a baby can be a harrowing time. Since April 2007, many mothers have been able to enjoy a full twelve months maternity leave, during which time a great bond forms between mother and child. The guilt about leaving your baby when it is essential for you to return to work is compounded by the need to place them in childcare.
According to a recent survey, an estimated 3.25 million UK families place their children in childcare. Although the environments are safe, loving and educational, almost half of these parents worry about the long-term effects childcare may have on their children. (more…)
