I believe that most people would like to improve their own working conditions, whether or not you work for someone or you have your own company. Again, I believe that there is nothing wrong with wanting to improve things at work. It is a place where we spend at least 1/3 of our life!

I makes sense to me to try to arrange the biggest parts of our life so that we can progress in the direction we have set out goals. Goals!!!! ...yes that is a topic that I will be writing more about. We just must have goals if we expect great things to happen in our careers or any other part of our life.

I have discovered one tool that really needs to be mentioned here. I have discovered that when I write something down and review it in a systemized way, I have a better chance of appropriate follow-up. I would suspect that you might agree with me. I have been using a Franklin planner for the past three years now. I do not know how I could make a move inside or outside of my office without it. The company combined with Stephen Covey's (Seven Habits of Highly Effective People) business a few months ago and became The FranklinCovey Company.

I have to tell you that one of the best things I did was to buy a FranklinCovey Planner for my entire staff and insist that they use it for the office and the other parts of their lives. It has been very effective for my practice. I plan to add other reports or bits of information that will be helpful for those that desire improvements for their career on this page. But, the first one will be the link to The FranklinCovey Company.
