- Decide on your goal, your time line and your time commitment
- Decide how you will get there – Affiliate, eBay, Adsense, info product, ecommerce etc
- Make a written plan that you feel you can follow – block out time on your calendar that you will be working on your new venture.
- Get off every e-mail list. If you must, keep one or two that are pertinent to your interests.
- Stop all of your paid monthly programs – But I’ll miss out on all of the new PLR content – hmm what about the 1,000 articles already on your harddrive?
- Learn one of the programs you already have on your harddrive. Most of the systems work at least a little bit. Besides you will learn more by completing a system that fails than you will reading and not implementing the best system out there.
- Finish something. Get your website or blog up, get your product done etc… Choose a path and stick to it.
- Stop wasting time reading forums and / or blogs unless you have a plan or reason to be posting.
- Check your email rarely. No more than once every couple of hours.
- Buy my course – Just kidding

- Google has changed the search game again. They have added real search data to their keyword tool.
In the past we’ve had to estimate the number of searches that were being made on a keyword. There are many great tools out there that use different methods to estimate the number of searches, but they always had their limitations and sometimes you would find that you spent a lot of time getting your website ranked on the first page only to find that you weren’t receiving anywhere near the number of searches that you thought you would.
Well before I get into a long post about what we did in the “old days” just go check out Ed Dale’s video. I need to get back to checking some search number for a project.
