Do you have aspirations for a better life? Do you wonder where the real you went when you became a mum? Do you need to find time for you? How would achieving your greatest goals change your life?

Isn’t it time you took control and did something for you that would give you immense fulfilment, satisfaction and pleasure?

We all understand the importance of setting goals in business. It enables you to drive your businesses forward and provides tangible targets to work towards. It is therefore good working practice to review your goals regularly: to clarify your progress, to identify what is left to do and to celebrate your achievement.

Regardless of how complex or time-consuming the attainment of your goal may be, checking in and reviewing its status will help focus your mind and readjust any plans, if necessary. It is worth doing this regularly so you can change course if other factors are delaying progress.

Time wasters can be extremely detrimental to your overall time management and business success. It is so easy to procrastinate over to do lists, meet up with clients for lunch or to find yourself social networking for hours on end! If you could limit the amount of time you waste on various unproductive tasks, you could find yourself with hours to spare!
