    Nurses Enhance Therapists' Occupations
    In general these are Registered Nurses from two distinct groups: those who have between 5 to 10 years of experience after their graduation and professional certification, and those who have retired.Retired Registered Nurses are starting a new, second career in an occupation where they already have basic knowledge, and in most cases, require only short and basic training or education.The other group of Registered Nurses, who are still working, are concerned with the question of a possible surplus of Registered Nurses who will not be able to f
    Recently I have been spending some time with my husband playing table tennis in our garage after work. I'm new to table tennis, so it's a steep learning curve. And even though a lot of my attention was on hitting the ball back and landing it on the table instead of skewing it off toward the tool rack or up into the fluorescent lights, I couldn't help reflecting on how similar the experience was to any kind of performance improvement in business. In fact, here are the six tips that learning table tennis (or trying anything new) can teach us about improving the performance of anything:

    Tip #1: Be very clear what result you want.

    So many times in seminars I hear people say that the main goal for them is “to get through the day without someone yelling at me.”I propose a new day for you with a new skill set. The proactive “I will service you before you start yelling” skill set.So, what do you do now?1st is identify your weakest area in your skill set. Is it listening, communicating or even impatience with customers? Once you have decided which it is we need to embark on a course of correcting it. The thing to remember is you did not build the skills you have now

    Telecommuting Idea: Appointment Setter
    Most small business owners are very busy people who don’t have a lot of extra time on their hands. They will happily outsource some of their daily time-consuming tasks to a telecommuter. One of these time consuming tasks is setting appointments. Appointment setting is a perfect occupation for a telecommuter.

So rather than set my immediate sights on thrashing my husband by the end of our first table tennis match, my focus was more modestly on just hitting the ball back and having it land where I intended it to go. With such a clear goal in front of you, it's so much easier to reach it, one logical step at a time. (Your eyes know exactly what to look at and what to look for.)

    Tip #2: If you're not good at it yet, expect high variability in your performance.

Understanding (and measuring) your variability is your baseline - understand this natural variability before y
