In this week’s feature segment I discuss how to define your goals for 2011 in just a few minutes and then turn those into an action plan to generate both the money and actions you need to make them a reality.  97% of adults have no written goals, and an even smaller percentage have an action plan to follow through.  In addition I answer questions about establishing your own domain name and blog, entering a competitive market, updating social networks and advertising via google adwords.
