The Entrepreneur Project is a proven
year-long business development program offered by
Helaine Iris through the Hannah Grimes Center in Keene,
NH. It offers you the skills, resources and support you
need to reach your business and personal goals.
The program is a facilitated group of
business owners who meet in a three-hour monthly meeting
for a total of 12 months to learn business skills and
receive tangible problem-solving input and support. Month
by month, businesses also complete a full business plan
during the course of the year. Optional individual
coaching is offered in conjunction. Participating
businesses range in size with annual sales from $2,500 to
nearly $1 million and from artists to high tech
businesses.

Life Beyond Time
Helaine Iris
"To live is so startling it leaves little time for anything
else." - Emily Dickenson
Why is it - no matter how well you manage (or think you
manage) your time there never seems to be enough? We all say-
time goes by too fast. Actually, what I've realized is that
time doesn't go by any faster than it ever has - it's just me
getting older - and, every day that goes by, I feel it more
and more.
The issue of time comes up in most of my conversations, not
just my professional ones! It's a universal concern - and so
curious - we are all given one precious life to live within
the parameters of some unknown lifespan and most people
constantly struggle with a lack of time. This paradox is
definitely a cosmic set up - and also our greatest opportunity
to find freedom.
This is not going to be an article on time management.
Suffice it to say there are many excellent tools and models
for managing your time. I propose the ultimate solution isn't
time management at all, it's time mindfulness.
Take Emily Dickenson's quote, "To live is so startling it
leaves little time for anything else." When I first heard this
brilliant piece of poetry, I was dumb struck wondering what
the "anything else" could be. In other words, what would it be
like if you approached everything you did in your day with the
same intentionality, importance and gratitude as the most
revered activity you could define as "anything else"?
Time mindfulness - what does this mean? It means
discovering that everything you do from the dishes to your
bookkeeping to a walk in nature can equally contribute to the
preciousness of your life. Try it and see if this change of
perspective doesn't alter your fundamental relationship to
time - the constant in the universe that you will never have
enough of.
It's YOUR life...imagine the possibilities!

Suggested
Reading
Exile by Richard North Patterson. This
read is an intense journey that's both entertaining and
politically informative. It's about the mid-east conflict
which I find to be the most complex, and tragic issue facing
us today. The story is about a Jewish lawyer who had a
passionate affair with a Palestinian woman in law school.
Years later, happily engaged and poised to run for congress,
he gets a phone call from this former lover who has been
accused of a terrorist act. He is drawn into helping her at
enormous expense.
