Yet another year has come to an end and as always the time to re-evaluate personal and professional goals has arrived, I’ve started writing a mental list of goals by October this year since 2008 has not been the greatest of times for me.
So, with a new calendar landing on my desk it’s time to finish analyzing the facts, the past actions, and the changes needed and put in practice ASAP the necessary activity to achieve this new set of goals for this upcoming year and luckily forming the correct path to obtain the “Kwan”.
This upcoming year starts with a fresh new look, big personal and professional projects, expectations and lots of positivism, and as Jerry Maguire’s mentor said “Hey, I don’t have all the answers. In life, to be honest, I failed as much as I have succeeded. But I love my wife. I love my life. And I wish you my kind of success”

Following the recomendation of my dear friend Yannick Warnier lead developer from Dokeos, I started using a time tracking web application tool called SlimTimer.
I must say I’m not too keen to go trying applications that pops-out the Internet, yet I’m very happy with this tool since the first day of use; It’s very simple to use and manage and allows the user to keep track of the time spent on a project or task and (if needed) to monitor the time of your partners, colleagues or employees in a given project/task.
Of course it can be easily cheated by just clicking on the “start” button when not supposed to, but using it is a matter of self-determination and valuation of time; for me since I’m a maniac with time and efficiency it’s a great tool!.
