Time for a little stock-taking folks!

Did you achieve all that you set out to achieve this year? If not, 2013 is another year just round the corner for you to remedy the shortfalls of the outgoing year.

But, the million dollar question right now is: will you take action in 2013 or continue to wish, hope and pray that a miracle is what you need to change your story and turn your fortunes around?

Take note that life is too short to waste golden opportunities which come your way on a daily basis.

The right thing to do now is to sit down, do a self-appraisal of your successes and failures during the year 2012 and device a workable plan towards achieving your goals in the year 2013 - just 8 days away.

If it is a degree that you wish to attain, start planning to do so now. If you are a job seeker, then it is time to stop wasting your time chasing shadows. Learn to be independent. Start a trade of business.

By the way, the best business that any young man can engage in these days is online business. It is a business that has all the advantages and virtually none of the disadvantages that any ideal business can have.

Online business is cost effective. You can start the business with as low as N10,000 and gradually watch your fortunes take a huge leap. Additionally, you do not need to rent an office space or employ any employees. Neither do you need to acquire any equipments for your online business. All that you need is a computer with an internet connection. If you cannot afford a computer right away, you can make use of the Notepad in your mobile phone as your primary writing device and use the services of a cyber cafe to work on your online business (see the following article for assistance on this: http://www.komeitoje.com/how-to-work-from-home.html).
