Did you accomplish your goals this week?

        For many of us that is an easy question to answer. Either yes or no. But the real question is did you set any goals for your business this week? If the goals you set are in your head and not recorded then you did not really set them. Why do I say that? Simple, there is no proof that you set them. I am sure you are a trust worthy individual. but, without the recorded proof their is always a shadow of doubt. Unnecessary doubts in business in not good business. Goals need to be set so you know what to expect to make sure you don't forget and minimize regret.
Did you ever wonder why basketball, Soccer,Hockey and football have goals? So the teams can have something to aim towards. I know that was weak but, you get the picture. Once you know what you are aiming towards,then you can adjust accordingly. Tracking your goals are just as important. Having the ability at the end of the week to see if you exceeded or  fell short of your goal gives you something to work on and prepare for.
                 Is all your tax information ready to be file or  turned over to your tax professional/accountant?
If so great.! If not you can set a goal to work on a system that will allow you to keep track of all your needed tax information. If you are not sure what you need to know. Just click on this blog link  http://knowtaxlawknowmoney.blogspot.com/2011/01/how-to-prepare-for-your-tax.html  it explains what you need to have and also leads to a link to down load the client organizer (its 8 pages in PDF format).
The better and more consistant you are at setting goals the smoother you business and your life will run.
Tax preparation is a year around endeavor, so happy tax season.
