TORONTO GIRL CHRONICLES

In the business world, and I'm sure in many other worlds, we divide our year into quarters (3 months each) and as I review our first quarter results I've been hit with the somewhat stupid realization that the first quarter of my year has gone by as well. Duh! but think about it, only 3 more quarters left. Doesn't that figure hit you like a ton of bricks?
Its means that by now you should have set the your wheels in motion.  In these first three months, if you didn't set the tone for the course of your year, well you better get moving.

I found this goal tender program at the Lululemon website. Its basically a program where you create a profile and answer a couple of questions to help you determine what you want out of life. It asks you about your values, your dreams, your goals (career, personal, health) and your plans (1 year, 5 years, 10 years) to make these a reality. It also has a really nifty (yes, I said nifty) "my progress" page where you can record the things that you're doing to make things happen.  After you're doing planning, you can print it out and post it on your bathroom mirror to keep focused.

I find this a really useful tool and I hope you at least give it a look. Like the site says, you need to begin with an end in mind. Every girl knows that you need a map to get to the destination, or a plan to make it in the city.
