Happy 4th of July Early & June Roundup!

The month of June is over and the start of July is upon us. Before we usher in July let’s take a look back at the month of June to see if we are closer to reaching our goals. This month I wrote about how to set goals that are achievable, working in a state of chaos, and 3 tech tools to help you stay organized. If you didn’t get a chance to read those posts please take a few moments over the next few days to get caught up.

The month of July starts the season of summer with cookouts and outdoor gatherings. It also has one of my favorite summer holidays: The 4th of July which is one of my favorite summer holidays filled with tasty food and festive activities. It is a time to gather with friends and family to have fun! But let’s not forget the true reason why we celebrate the 4th of July:

Freedom & Liberty

There is much that can be said of those two words and I will leave that to you to ponder. The 4th of July for me is a time to celebrate being an American and feeling thankful for the soldiers on the ground and in other places that help this country to remain resilient and a beacon of hope for so many. I don’t take for granted that I was born here and for those who fought great battles to allow me to have the freedom that I enjoy today. As I eat all the summer treats and enjoy the fun of the day these sentiments will be close to my heart. If you want to learn more about the history of the 4th of July check it out here and enjoy your day my fellow Americans.

Keep IT Sunny!

I can’t believe the end of the month is here. It really did go by fast. I hope you had a chance to crush some of your business goals this month. This month we took a look at how to build a great financial foundation within your business using the chart of accounts, how to get the most out of QuickBooks Online by following their predetermined workflows. I also shared how it is important to just breathe and take stock of your business goals journey and if you are having success reaching them.

The year is officially halfway over and as business owners, we have a lot to be grateful for as we reflect on what it means to be an American this 4th of July. We have the opportunity to build something out of nothing in the greatest country on the planet. Are you taking advantage of all the opportunities before you? Now is a good time to take stock, pause and enjoy time with your family this 4th of July!

Keep IT Sunny!

What does freedom mean to you?

I am guessing that this question has a variety of responses. Freedom means many things to me. It means being able to express freedom of speech without fear of reprisal. It means being able to live and vote in a democratic society. It means capitalism is alive and well. It means having the ability to create the American dream as a business owner. None of these type of freedoms would exist without the brave soldiers who honorably defend our country. I have many of them in my family. As we move toward celebrating the 4th of July weekend let’s take a moment to thank our soldiers and remember that freedom is precious and not free.

Someone has paid the price for it and is currently paying the price for it.

This month I would like to take a look at a variety of ways that we can create more freedom in our business that would allow us to live more intentonal.

Keep IT Sunny!
