Go For The GoalDon't waste time on empty wishes for your business. Get in the game and make it happen.

Are you whining because things aren't happening or workingto transform your dreams into reality? Consider thesequestions.

• Do you have pie-in-the-sky dreams or realistic goals? Aim forhigh goals, but not so high they're unattainable.

• You undoubtedly have sales and performance goals, but whatabout personal and professional goals? Decide whether you'recomfortable in your current business or eager to move into acompletely unrelated field. While recently renovating my home, Imet several people who started out in one profession but left therat race and became plumbers, painters, landscapers, etc. Thesepeople were all too familiar with the corporate world and optedout. Now they set their own hours, choose their clientele and, mostimportantly, enjoy what they're doing.
