I had every single intention of writing a 2019 business review blog post – you know the ones that come out at the end of December reflecting back on the year that has passed. But that didn’t happen.

I was talking to a creative entrepreneur friend the other day about systems and outsourcing and how, as entrepreneurs, we tend to have a lot of half-way systems in place that don’t work well, but get the job done. You know, the five calendars, or maybe the notetaking across five different platforms (I’m looking at you Google Doc, Asana, and Notes app).
