Declutter

 

Declutter

One of the benefits of Covid has been the chance to declutter the attic or garage. Of course, you then need to book an appointment at the recycle centre to get rid of it.

Decluttering of the mind – if only that was just as easy as removing what you don’t want and disposing of it somewhere else.

I suppose it is also like the CCleaner app on your computer to give it a bit of a refresh.

“Clarity of Mind” is clearing all the clutter that comes with extraneous or uncontrolled thoughts or mental “noise” ….

We all know that a holiday, a walk in the countryside and exercise can help. There is so much distraction in business, how do we focus and remain focused on our core objectives.

I can’t give you a review just yet of a business tool but have ordered the Remarkable 2 in the hope it helps with clear thinking.

A quote from their website “In a distracted world, remarkable 2 was designed to not get in your brain’s way. Free from distraction, you can find the focus you need to think better. No notification, social media, or email – just you and your thoughts”

There is a waiting list now due to Covid, mine will arrive November. If I don’t get distracted, will write a short review at the beginning of 2021

Calling all in the Hosptiality Trade

  As at today, Tuesday the Nineteenth of October, the business climate for pubs, restaurants, and hotels is extremely tough. Right now, lobbying the government to demonstrate the facts and the science behind their decisions, is high on the agenda. On the BBC Scotland John Beattie Drivetime show last Thursday, Michael Bergson from Buck’s Bar – “Austria (the country that eats out the most) has a death rate 15% that of the UK and their bars and restaurants are open James Withers from Scotland Food & Drink “There is anger, as the hospitality trade is going through a lot of pain and cost for nothing” He also cited Nicola Sturgeon’s comment “We have to learn to live with this virus and we have to take a strategic approach” A vaccine is the answer to this stop start life for the hospitality trade. Scientists say a vaccine normally takes ten years to be developed and checked successfully enough for distribution. As there are many worldwide teams working flat out, they are...

I'm becoming a blogger.

Should I make my blog name “The Hulk”. After all I want to be talking about green energy and everything green related. But I am certainly not as big as him, and don’t know if his massive hands and fingers could manage to use a keyboard. So, in the absence of a quirky name, I am going to keep the one I have always used – John. My name is John Wilkinson and this is the first blog. My work experience has always been customer service and for the last ten years, business energy. If you are looking for renewable energy news, especially for SMEs who want to go green or greener (there’s the hulk analogy) and the odd useful tip then this is the place to be. Its not going to be a daily blog, you can get too much of a good thing, but a weekly one. And I will be focusing on helping the busy and overstretched Owner or Manager with hopefully useful information and the odd tip or too. So look out for tips on saving time, money and green energy. Okay, that is a very brief into, look forwar...

  Take Note   There are several very good books on business on being more productive. I want to read more, because I know they will be beneficial, but more means more time.   So, how do you read more, summarise it, and use what you have learned as quickly as possible Option 1 – You can read the book, write notes as a summary and use as a roadmap for implementation Option 2 – Listen to an audio recording and write you notes as per option 1 Option 3 – And this is the one I am starting to favour for speed. Use a kindle and highlight the parts which stand out. You can go back through the book and see all the highlights. I much prefer to get all the highlights together in one place as a condensed version, my version, of the book. The trouble is, Amazon only lets you have so many highlights per book, which defeats the purpose. However, I have started using Clippings.io and you can export all the highlights to a Word or PDF. There are other bits of sof...
