If you are booking a meeting for yourself, for others or both, give everyone ample time to respond to the meeting and provide a reminder (theres a check box for this in the meeting set up page) of at least 15 minutes. A day or two before the task is due is usually sufficient.

Take classes, read a book, read current events about new trends that are happening in your field. See what you can change about yourself, don’t try to change others.

Since I work at home (and because we're full-time RVers, always on the road), I need to be able to fax/copy/convert from anywhere. My scanner serves all these purposes -- scan a document in and you can then e-fax it over the internet, print out a copy, edit it directly through OCR software, save it as a PDF and toss the paper.

If we have appts that are booked further out, I stick pin those to a magnetic cork strip, placed under the two calendars. Very well laid out.
