#155: Using Systems to Keep Your Household Clutter from Slowing You Down, with Stacy Tuschl

Stacy Tuschl is a speaker, business coach, and the owner of The Academy of Performing Arts in Wisconsin. She is the author of the book “Is Your Business Worth Saving?” where she reveals proven strategies for pulling entrepreneurs out of a rut and launching them toward business success.

Today, in wrapping up a week of talking about productivity and systems, Stacy goes over some of the systems she uses in her home, that help to keep her business really productive. She mentions that she often does her recording in her kitchen because she's comfortable there and it also has the best internet reception in her house. As a mom, this means that she really has to have her ducks in a row, when it comes to being organized.

In today's show, Stacy shares some of the things she does, to ensure that her environment remains conducive to efficiency and productivity. She reminds you that need to care about your home because it affects your business. She asks you what you can do today that will help you de-clutter your life and really simplify it. Stacy suggests that you look around the room and assess the situation and see what you can do to make things more organized and start a system that you haven't had before to enhance your productivity.
