This was all supposed to be done by now. Remember in May, when we told ourselves that fall would be the end of COVID and we'd be happily transitioning into our "new normal" lives? Well, the temperatures are shifting, the leaves are changing, the days are getting a little shorter… and we're not quite there yet. We're navigating new versions of school for our kids, new versions of what work looks like, and new ways to stay connected. Personally and professionally, we're being stretched in unexpected ways.

About this time last summer, we were having conversations about our 2020 Bounce Calendar. Every year, there’s a theme, and we needed one for 2020.

Today, possibly more than ever, we’re being forced to leverage technology to bridge some of the gaps we’re all facing. Although they haven’t come close to replacing the value of working side-by-side and in-person, online apps assist us in many ways. What are some benefits of using apps in our businesses today, and which ones do we think are the best?

Distractions are things that hinder us in moving from point A to point B and oppose us in reaching our goals. We’re not talking cat videos or ESPN here...
