We find ourselves closing down 2012. There are lot of post or articles about business plans.

First I was going to write an article about goals and plans, not because everyone is, because it is important to have a plan...

Then I thought of doing a survey and having a questionnaire for you to fill in, then I thought I won’t get enough responses for it to have a real significance. The reason most won’t do the survey is because they don’t have a plan. To fill in a survey will make you admit to yourself you don’t.

Then I decided to simply ask the thought provoking questions, not for me, BUT for you. It is always my goal when I teach a class, write an article to make the student or reader think.

So I am going to ask you some questions, I want you to be honest with YOURSELF.

Do you have a goal(s)?
Is it written down?

Do you have a plan?
Is it written down?

Do you have a schedule?
Is it written down?

Do you have a budget?
Is it written down?
Do you have help in the form of a coach or mentor?

Now here’s the most important question of them all. Why not?

Now I really want you to do some soul searching. I know why we don’t. Do you?
