What
You Need is a
PERSONALIZED APPROACH to LIFE MANAGEMENT!
One
of my favorite books as a child was “Cheaper By the
Dozen”.
And no, I don’t mean the recently released movie!
I’m referring to the story of REAL Frank and Lillian
Gilbreth and their 12 children.
You are probably familiar with their story.
Frank and Lillian were efficiency experts in the early 1900's
and spent their lives learning and teaching others how
to live and work more efficiently.
|
"[Frank]
took moving pictures of his sons and daughters at work
to analyze their motions and thus find ways to help
them perform a task (washing dishes, for example) more
quickly and efficiently.
He
set up process and work charts in the bathroom
so that even the youngest children could record each
morning when they had brushed their teeth, taken a bath,
combed their hair, and made their beds.
In
the evening, each child noted his weight and plotted
it on a graph before filling out the process charts
to indicate whether he had brushed his teeth, washed
his face, and done his homework.
A
family council met once a week to create a budget (a
separate purchasing committee handled shopping duties)
and assign regular chores; to earn extra money,
the children submitted sealed bids for special jobs
such as painting a fence or removing a tree stump. (The
lowest bidder won the contract.)
A
utility committee monitored water and electricity usage
and fined those who left a light on or a faucet running.
A designated gift-buyer keep track of birthdays
and other special occasions and bought presents"
(Contemporary Heroes and Heroines, 2000).

Lillian
worked together with Christine Frederick, author of
“The New Housekeeping: Efficiency Studies in
Home Management”, to design the "ideal
kitchen", which has heavily influenced today’s
kitchen design in both the US and Europe.

Their
ideas were simple.
Do the least amount of work
and get the most done
in the least amount of time.
Today,
we are leading more and more hectic lives.
We
are over worked and out of time.
More
than ever we need the wisdom of the Gilbreths and Christine
Fredrick.
You
need the keys to doing the least amount of work,
in the least amount of time while increasing your efficiency
and getting more done.
It
wasn’t long ago that I too was overworked, overwhelmed,
and ending the day simply exhausted from my numerous responsibilities
as a mother and business owner.
Then,
for the first time since I was a child, I came across it again.
“The New Housekeeping: Efficiency Studies in Home Management”.
A light bulb went off. I found the key...
Run Your Home Like a Business
Sounds simple?
Maybe.
The problem is we’ve been doing the same things
in the same way for so long that sometimes it takes a fresh
perspective to help us see what we’ve been missing.
That’s
where coaching comes in….
-
Clarity
-
Accountability
-
Sounding
Board
-
FREE
of judgments
-
POSITIVE
Support
Help
is here! Nothing is more exciting for me than to see others
start to gain clarity. I would love to help you live
the life you’ve been wanting.
If
you would like help creating a new life for your self….
One
with more time for your friends and family….
A
more organized, less stressful life…
Then
you are in the right place!
