Website for time management expert and trainer Peter Turla who is also the president of the National Management Institute.

Here are several online products for help with goal setting that I learned about from an article posted at the website http://writerswin.com/.

  • StickK

    www.stickk.com

    Based on the concept of a commitment contract, this program was co-founded by Yale University professors including economics professor Dean Karlan. Although the examples at the site are based on quite hefty financial incentives, you could certainly use the concept with less costly rewards.

  • Achievr

    www.achievr.biz

    Based on a four-step program:

    3. Review your goals.

    4. Track your progress.

    www.weekplan.net

    Inspired by Covey's 7 Habits of Highly Effective People and Allen's Getting Things Done.

  • Lifetick
