A Fresh Start in September

Goal setting is a popular topic in December and January, but what about September? I think of September as a time to “Start Fresh”. The kids are back in school and our lives fall into a routine again. For me, summer was filled with mini vacations, watching our daughters and squeezing in work when and where we could among the fun and activities. I tried to slow it down and enjoy the summer so I’m not complaining it went “too fast” and it worked. I feel like I had a full summer, down time and active times, but boy am I ready to get back to work!

September brings about the thought of learning something new. I like to review my business and see what else I’d like to learn. Community Education always mails out a catalog in August and this time I read it cover to cover, looking for something new to learn. I turned down a few pages for myself, one for my husband and a few for the kids. As entrepreneurs, business owners, and those in control of growing our businesses ourselves, we are constantly learning.

I encourage all of you to consider taking a class in your community to learn something new. There are a lot of great offerings out there. Learn more about Facebook or LinkedIn, learn how to operate your camera and take better pictures, learn how to relax and relieve stress, adopt better eating habits or learn to cook healthier meals for you and your family.

Now, let’s turn that around…ever thought about teaching? How could teaching a class expand your business? I recommend you contact the Community Education Organization in your community. Ask them about the process, when is the next deadline, what night is the most popular night or day for classes, how do you get paid, what’s the fee, do they promote the events above and beyond being included in the catalog, how can you promote the event to increase attendance? Find out more about teaching…you might learn something NEW about your business.

Many of our members have taught in the past or are currently teaching. I recommend each Chapter invite the Community Education Organization that serves your region to a WIN Meeting.
