HOT TIP: do you have a slow time of the year? I do. Summer is usually quieter because moms are home with kids, people are on vacation, Summerfest is in full bloom..you get the gist. People are busy – and having fun so I tend to be slower until fall kicks in. What do I do during this time? CREATE. Meditate new ideas. Write my face off. Don’t freak out about slow periods – do something with that extra time.
