NOT A MOMENT TO LOSE!

[Karan]:  The 1st November already?!  Are you sure?  This time in a few short weeks we're going to be staring down the barrel of a New Year, and enjoying all of the wonderful opportunities it's going to afford us.

But what of 2010, have you achieved all that you had planned to achieve this year?  Well there's still time for you to finish strong - or stronger still - what are you waiting for?  There's not a moment to lose!

From my personal perspective, I cannot believe what Ian and I have achieved this year, so far - it's certainly more than we'd planned on 1st January that's for sure.  Earlier this year - April in fact - I wrote out a one year plan, detailing what I wanted to happen in each given month leading up to April 2011.  I reviewed this plan regularly to ensure we kept ourselves on track and, although some objectives were not completed exactly when I had anticipated them to be completed, they were nevertheless completed. 

I last reviewed this plan at the beginning of October, and was delighted to have found all of our objectives crossed off, but it wasn't until I was talking about this to a friend recently that I'd realised my cardinal sin: I hadn't replaced the list!  Where was my one year plan to October 2011?  Was I really going to be resting on my laurels from now on? 

We still have seven realistically productive weeks left of 2010, and so much can be achieved in that time, so this is me giving myself a massive - and very public! - kick up the arse for being complacent, whilst also setting myself new targets for the remainder of 2010, the New Year and to infinity  - and beyond!  Have definately been watching too many Toy Story movies!
