Everything you do requires your time; this means that your accomplishments and your effectiveness are directly in proportion to your ability to manage your time.  We set goals for the year; we set daily priorities, but how often do you add a time factor to each of them?

To make the necessary changes to have 2011 be a better year than 2010, three things are necessary;

• First there has to be "true desire"; not just words on a piece of paper, but something that is burning in your heart. That means that the motivation to make 2011 better already exists.
• The second item is "planning". Writing a goal to accomplish by the end of 2011, is not enough. The plan has to be broken down into small segments.
  
• The third and most important to  reaching your goal is the accountability. Each segment has to have a time element in which it has to be achieved.

With this major goal in mind, then the rest of your life ( family, spiritual, health)has to be "time managed". These three items should have first priority for time management, because they are the foundation upon which your work goal is built.

Time management  works better if accountability is part of it. I recommend that  time segments, for the purpose of accountability, be broken down for weekly review. I recommend that you have someone else, in addition to yourself,  to monitor the time line; your mentor or business coach is a good choice.
