A new kind of CEO is sweeping the nation, but they're not high-powered business executives. The new CEOs are talented and efficient women and men who have the extraordinary ability to balance work, career, children and much more, yet still have time for themselves. AOL.com has dubbed them "Chief Everything Officers" and, with partner Dove, has created a new Web site that honors these dedicated individuals. And as we all struggle to juggle it all and find extra time in our day, the site also offers tips and information from leading experts, articles from Real Simple and All You as well as advice from the online community-to help transform regular people into CEOs.
Here are some tips from the new site, www.aol.com/ceo, which shares the secrets to living a CEO lifestyle:
Power It Up
The Internet is a great way to save money and precious time. Whether buying a gift through shopping sites such as AOL Shopping, consolidating your bills on finance sites such as AOL Bill Pay or signing up for online reminders so you never forget a birthday, the Internet is an essential way to maximize your time while helping you stay organized.
Clear the Clutter
Feng shui experts would agree that clutter in the house can produce clutter of the mind. Why not take a time-out and clean your closet as a way to bring more clarity to your life? Who knows, you might discover old treasures tucked away or items that could be used by a local charity.
Relax. Schedule Alone Time.
The best way to stay focused is to make sure you take a time-out for yourself, and the bathroom just might become your new sanctuary. Dove, the global beauty brand, recommends enjoying an evening shower, which is a great way for busy women to pamper themselves and ease into a restful night's sleep.
Reuse, Repurpose, Refresh
Some of the best timesaving and budget-conscious tricks can help you become a better family manager. Some ideas include using old newspapers to clean your windows (which works wonders), taking old coffee grinds and using them in your garden as compost or checking out cooking sites like AOL Food to discover ways to make one meal that can be altered into several different ones throughout the week.
