I love my Motorola Q...with one exception...no matter what ringtone I use, half the time I can't hear my phone.  If that's your problem, then this phone charm may be a solution.  It flashes with your phone rings.  Your choice of lava lamp or bulb, in three colors.

Many coaches, speakers and trainers record their presentations and classes.  And sometimes you want to edit those recordings.  Audacity is free, open source softward that allows you do do just that.

I love Google Calendar!

I admit it.  I am a Google fan.  I love my Gmail, but I love my Google Calendar even more.

Up to now, I used my Palm desktop calendar (even after I quit using my Palm) to keep track of my appointments.  When my second Palm bit the dust, it was time to find a better solution...and a portable one since I spent quite a bit of time away from home and office.  Google Calendar to the rescue.  With Google calendar I can access my schedule from any computer and from my Motorola Q smartphone.  And it even automatically syncs with the MS Calendar built into the Vista system.

I am a happy scheduler!

Working with a Mentor Coach

As a Coach, it's vital to experience coaching and be mentored by an experienced coach.  This is a much different, deeper experience than working with a buddy or peer coach! 

Selecting that mentor coach is a very personal experience.  I hope this two part teleclass will help you in that selection.  You can listen to it on your PC, or choose the downloadable MP3.  Also, I've created a checklist for areas to work on with your mentor coach which you can see at http://www.donnasteinhorngroup.com/MentorCoachChecklist.doc

Yes, this is my second post about a power strip. Now before you think I am powerstrip crazy, let me point you to that power strip behind your desk. Yes, I know what it looks like, it looks like mine...a jumble of wires and boxy plugs that cover more than one slot. It takes me three power strips to get all my office electronics powered.

The Powersquid just makes sense.
