We would like to help change the idea of what an Entrepreneur is by helping people realize that Entrepreneurship is everywhere. Good managers are in fact entrepreneurs. Large corporations down to small businesses are made up of entrepreneurs. We would like to define an entrepreneur as a sort of project manager and innovator; that without our economies would fail (both personal and business). In the book, The Lean Startup, by Eric Ries he outlines the steps that we must take to have our goals become reality (everyone who is anyone has goals, by the way). It looks a little like this:

• Vision: start, define, learn, experiment
• Steer: leap, test, measure, pivot (or persevere)
• Accelerate: batch, grow, adapt, innovate

Just think how you can apply these principles to your life and you will recognize that everyone is an entrepreneur.

Since school will be starting this month and we just finished finalizing our academic planner... We thought it would be a good idea to share some inspiring quotes on education. Here are our favorites:

• "Education is all just a matter of building bridges.”  - Ralph Ellison
  
• “Some drink from the fountain of knowledge, others just gargle.”  - Robert Anthony
• “The whole purpose of education is to turn mirrors into windows.”  - Sydney Harris
• “The roots of education are bitter, but the fruit is sweet.”  - Aristotle
• “The purpose of education is to replace an empty mind with an open one.”  - Malcolm S. Forbes
• “You never learn much from hearing yourself speak.”  - George Clooney
• “Wisdom is not a product of schooling but of the lifelong attempt to acquire it.”  - Albert Einstein
  
  

We would just like to take a moment to recognize how much we love network marketing companies and the people involved in them. What other kind of business can you work from home and have unlimited growth potential? They provide you with a product to sell, that people typically already use some form of, and you educate people and serve them with the product. The people involved are great at making connections and building great support groups. It is a remarkable experience to be involved in! 

What makes someone really successful at network marketing? They have a system; and they teach that system to the people they bring into the business with them! If it really is a great business, then everyone can succeed if they follow the system or process. We could give examples all day of companies that have these systems in place, but there are too many too list. Here at Time Managed we want to help people in network marketing succeed. Our planners are fully customizable with tracking sheets depending on your businesses metrics to be measured. We have created the "pink planner" for make-up consultants and some of the pages we inserted between the weeks and months can be found here. Please contact us if you would like help developing a system of tracking for your business. The benefit of the Time Managed system is it eliminates the need for a planner, tracking sheets, and a notebook because it combines them all into one place!
