Results Oriented Work Environment

Living the 4-Hour Workweek in Ohio

January 29, 2008

Over the past few months since I read The 4-Hour Workweek I've been experimenting with bits and pieces of it. At Thanksgiving I took my laptop and left "headquarters" for two weeks. I got my work done while a four hour-drive away and none of my clients or employees noticed. But seeing as how it was the holiday season my clients and employees were distracted, plus if anything had happened I could have driven home in a jiffy.

Now I'm testing things a bit further by relocating all the way across the country for a month.

Mail Receiving / Check Deposit Service

December 24, 2007

Since reading The 4-Hour Work Week, which to me is a decent manual on creating a personal results-oriented work environment, I've been trying to implement more and more of it in my life. During the Thanksgiving holiday I spent two weeks away from my home office with nothing more than my phone and laptop. Most of my business was already done by email, and the phone calls I did receive are sent to me as audio files attached to emails, so no problems there. None of my clients knew I was in Southern Utah and then Southern California, 6-12 hours away from where I normally work.

The one problem I ran into was checking the mail and depositing checks, and I'm wondering if there's some sort of service out there that will open my mail for me and deposit checks for me.
