Passive income streams: day 3 – the mindset of success

I always marvel at the different mindsets of the mums I speak to – some a raring to go with their business idea and you can literally smell the success in their aura.

Other mums are unsure, afraid almost, about starting a business – can they work it around their children, will it bring more stress into their lives, where will they find the time?

Then you have another group of mums who don’t even realise that they are sitting on a golden egg! I get so frustrated because they have a fantastic idea, which anyone can see will work – and often needs zero to little investment (maybe £50-£100) to gett hem going, and they would start to see rewards immediately, but the defeatist attitude just holds them back.

Today’s video looks at the mindet for success and the mindset that is required if you want to make a success of your business.

Please watch it with an open mind – if you’ve made your mind up already about what will and won’t work, you may miss out on something good!

How to tame the paper monster in your home business

Paper mountain getting out of hand? It's time to get brutal!

Every so often I go through all the paper that I have buried in my many handbags and it amazes me. While I do most things electronically, every so often I feel the need to print something, and then something else, and then another thing, and eventually I start increasing that paper trail.

What I often do now is go through these reams of paper, say every quarter, and I’m very ruthless – if I haven’t read it by then, then off it goes into the recycle bin or shredder. It’s as simple as that.

Here are a few tips on how to tame that paper monster in your home or office for good:

What happens if you suffer a miscarriage before your maternity leave?

A miscarriage is defined as the death of a baby before the 24th week of pregnancy, and under these circumstances, the right to maternity leave will not exist

Our thoughts are with Britain’s Got Talent judge and actress Amanda Holden on the news that she suffered a miscarriage recently, in the seventh month of her pregnancy.

According to Patient UK: “About 1 in 7 confirmed pregnancies end in miscarriage. But, the rate of miscarriage is much higher than this. As many as 1 in 4 pregnancies end in miscarriage. This is because in many cases a very early pregnancy ends before you miss a period, and before you are aware that you are pregnant.”
