Get Control of your E-Mail, Before it Controls You

Ask any online entrepreneur where they spend the bulk of their time and they’ll tell you they are reading and responding to e-mail. If you run an online business you may receive hundreds of messages a day. It comes with the territory and unfortunately, there’s no escaping it. Keeping up with your e-mail is very important to your success online and you should make every attempt to answer any and all messages within 24 to 48 hours.

Cookie Control and the Accessing of Sites

Carey,

I have a cable modem that has 3 computers networked on it. On two of the computers, I loaded CookieCop 2. Over a period of time, certain web sites became unavailable to the computers that have CookieCop2 on them. The first was fool.com, followed by the financial section of yahoo, and then amazon.com.

Here recently, I haven’t been able to get onto ccbonline.com. The 3rd machine has never had CookieCop loaded on to it, so I can go to any of the above sites (this eliminated the router as a potential problem). I have removed CookieCop on one machine but it did not correct the problem. It still loads on machine 2 and it still will not connect Also I never set CookieCop up to block any of these sites. It appears there is a file or something on machine 1 and 2 that is keeping them from accessing these web sites.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Marvin

Control Employees By Controlling Yourself

Dear EQ Coach:
My administrative assistant is quite young (22) and often displays her emotions in an inappropriate manner when things aren’t going well at home or with her family. Though I think I treat her very compassionately, and grant her a lot of flexibility, there are times that her sour, combative moods become unbearable-especially when at these times she also often arrives late to work and doesn’t perform her tasks with care or accuracy and does not provide me the assistance I need in a timely manner. How can I tell my assistant that her behavior and attitude are unprofessional and not acceptable without making things worse?
