I knew from a very early age I wanted to be a lawyer. At least I wanted to be like the lawyers I saw on television and in movies. From Atticus Finch in To Kill a Mockingbird, to LA Law, I thought being an attorney would be the coolest thing ever. Because of that I enrolled in law school, took and passed the bar exam, and started practicing law. But I soon found out it wasn't as romantic as everyone made it out to be.

We all know the feeling when we just can't bring ourselves to start some task. In those situations most of us are very good at finding "valid" excuses for not starting, like checking your email or Facebook account one more time, checking quickly what's on television, or going to have something to eat. This is procrastination at its best and is not good for you time management.

We are often busy and in a hurry to somewhere. Our life focus is on a short time span ... hours, days, or weeks. Only a few of us know their true direction and where they really would want to be in a few years. This is because most of us never have sat down in peace to think about about our goals in life.
