Goals require a plan of action. Sometimes the thing (goal) right in front of us takes the cake. I mean, whatever the goal is, that's the one thing that makes the earth move. There will always be tasks list, objectives, strategy and tactics. At the end of the day you must be able to measure accomplishments, measure progress towards an established goal.
In the spirit of getting that one thing accomplished here are some proven applications (apps) that set in motion a method for accomplishing the goal at hand. The links below will take you to the website for the app.
Stickk.com This goal-setting app has attached monetary outcomes to action steps. Now THAT is getting to the heart of the matter.
Any Do This app is task oriented. While it may seem plain, over ten million people have used the app to go deep into their "to do" list.
Smart Goals Great name for an app that guides its users towards short and long-term goals.
