Do Your Own Self-Evaluation
As a CTMH business owner, you can perform your own self-evaluation by listing your major accomplishments for last year, your plans for the coming year, what new skills and training you'd like to pursue in 2011 and what you see yourself doing in the next 3 or 5 years. You should also gather all the thank you notes, awards, pictures, letters, emailed compliments, etc. you received last year and compile them into a brag book to use when you need a reminder of just how wonderful you really are.
This little exercise takes just a short time to complete, but can help you in immeasurable ways. It lets you pinpoint the things you are already doing well and the areas where you need some improvement. It's also a good time to give yourself a well-deserved pat on the back for a job well-done. One of the challenges of being self-employed is that you need to be a good boss to yourself and give yourself the same kudos you would give any employee who works for you.
A side benefit of this self evaluation is the reminder of all the great stuff you achieved last year. Sometimes in all the rush of day to day life we forget just how wonderful and special we are. Taking a quick look through your brag book and accomplishments on a regular basis will help you remember who you are and what you have to offer your customers and downline team that makes you so uniquely you.

Creative Corner:
I don't usually promote products that are not CTMH, but I just have to tell you about this product that is the BOMB! While I was at Karen's for LeaderShare, I used Bren Yule's and it is so easy to use for both cardstock and B&T's. It's carried at Micheal's, Joanne's, Hobby Lobby and many online retailers. Retails for $19.99 and you can use your 40% off coupon on it! If I am teaching a box or other project that requires scoring, I'll do it for my customers ahead of time. This product really is a time saver!
