When you’re working for yourself, you might find that it is VERY easy to get distracted. I’m not talking about the TV distracting you…I’m actually talking about work distracting you! You might be working on one product…but then you read about something else that could help you make a lot of money, so you put the product aside, and start to work on this new website. Then, before that website is done, you hear from a friend about a certain type of blog that will make you money, so you put the website aside, and start that blog. Now it’s been 6 months, and you don’t have anything finished…you just have a partial product, website, and blog.
Where does that leave you? Right back at the beginning. You haven’t made any money, and don’t really have anything to show for your time. If you kept to a plan though, you would see that you should follow through with one thing before you start the next.
If you write out exactly what your goals and plans are, you will be able to make sure you finish one thing before starting the next. This will really help you in the long run! If the idea you heard about is so great, you can do it when you have free time – once what you are working on is finished!
It will really help you save a lot of time!
