I was having a listen to the latest SmallBizPod podcast today and was thrilled to hear Brilliant Business Books mentioned. Thanks Alex!

I was also interested to hear the first book review sent in by a reader. It was a brilliant review of The New Philanthropists by Charles and Elizabeth Handy. Sounds like an interesting read. If you get the chance have a listen to the review.

Are you in the zone?

Whilst doing working today I was listening back through some old podcasts and came across a brilliant one about working from home which I had forgotten about. Actually it’s not that old – only from June this year. It’s one of Mind Your Own Business’s and is called Staying in the Zone. It’s a great listen so if you work from home or are thinking about working from home I would highly recommend it. I particularly enjoyed the different ways of making sure you get work done as practised by Charles Dickens and Anthony Trollope – most entertaining.

The podcast contains some really useful advice about making sure you give yourself space to get work done – both physically by having a defined work area and in terms of time by giving yourself set working hours (also one of my tips in 10 tips for staying motivated when working from home).

Small business podcasts

When I’m working on a task that doesn’t take too much brain-power I like to listen to some podcasts aimed at small businesses. I’ve added a couple of my favourites to the resources:

SmallBizPod: Business Podcast for Entrepreneurs, business owners and start up businesses
Mind Your Own Business: Business Podcast for Entrepreneurs, business owners and start up businesses

I’m sure I will be adding more in the coming weeks, so if podcasts are your thing do stay tuned
