The number one struggle in the digital age: how to get work done when you receive a stream of never ending emails? This topic seems to be a regular source of conversation with many people. It’s a continuous and almost impossible challenge to not let emails distract me during a busy work week. When I’m trying to write or get a project done I am a big believer in setting goals on this blog. I’ve always felt that if I put something out into the universe I will be held more accountable. I think writing something down, especially in a public place, puts more pressure on you to get it done! When I look back at 2014, there are definitely things that I feel like I could have done better or things that I could have focused on more. But, that is what New Years Resolutions are for, right?!

I was in my early 20’s, working as the accessories buyer for a teen fashion brand when a colleague approached me with an idea.
