Planning for 2008

We have 10 days left in 2007 then 2008 will be here.
10 days until a new year...then we all will have 365 days to make 2008 a success.
Time is the great equality of life...we all get 24 hour a day and 365 day a year. And we can only look forward to what we can do, not what we wished we had done. Wouldn't that just be wasting time?

Now while I have some great accomplishments in 2007 it wasn't the best year for my business.
Therefore, I would like to make 2008 the year I take my business from good to Great!
Time to dust off the business plan and revise it based upon my Goals for 2008.

But wait what are my goals for 2008????????

10 days to figure it out...what about you?
