I&#039;ve found that being very specific has helped me achieve more than when I was vague. Maybe I say &quot;increase sales&quot; and do by 20%, but if I say &quot;increase sales by 50%&quot; and hit that goal I am much better off.

Thanks for coming by,
Matt</description>

		<description>Exactly Dee, if your not held accountable I think your chances for achieving your goals go way down. You loose that sense of urgency that&#039;s important, especially for stretch goals.

Thanks,
Matt</description>

Not only the time management piece, but putting some time limits on when we want to achieve something is key as well. Otherwise procrastination sneaks into the equation.

Simple stuff really, but sometimes we forget the easy things and try to make it hard.

		<description>Yeah, this is something I should do.  Not I&#039;m going to increase earnings this year, but I&#039;m going to increase earnings this much by this day.  

I think because I&#039;ve made it to the point where I&#039;m making a nice living from my web income, I&#039;ve gotten a little lazy with goal setting.  Goal: enh, do more of the same.  Probably not the best way to go about it. :P</description>

		<description>Adding a time frame makes you accountable whether it be to yourself or to someone else.  Keeps you on track.   Great series, Thanks Matt.</description>

		<description>Time is the nail on the head... I think it&#039;s one of the biggest things that keep us from achieving, time management. 

Great stuff!</description>
