7 Jan 2009Want to make sure you accomplish your goals in 2009? Well Eben Pagan has a new video out that is pretty good.

I agree with the tips … and what the bloke in the video said about the net’s power of distraction … Particularly like the tip about not being adfraid to switch off your phone for an hour or two …
Thanks for the post.
