A Tiny But Huge New Years Resolution

January 2, 2008 · Print This Article

Here’s a small New Year’s resolution that’s going to pay off big!

I vow that 1 day per week I will not look at my emails or my stats or play spider solitaire or read blogs or read ebooks or opt-in to anything the whole day.  Why?  These are huge time wasters.  Just think how focused I can be and how much I can accomplish!  So… don’t email me tomorrow because I won’t read it.  :-)

Here’s something I’ve managed to accomplish over the holidays: 

An ecourse about resale rights.  Since I’m so impressed with John Thornhill’s resale rights program, I thought I’d learn more about resale rights.  I like to do research (I know, I’m weird that way) so off I went learning everything I could and packed it into an ecourse for anyone else who wants it too.  It’s free with your opt-in:  Resale Rights 101.

P.S.  Don’t ever put your AWeber form for an opt-in ecourse on your website until you have your ecourse fully written because people will sign up for it and you will become very stressed trying to get each day written before it’s supposed to go out.  Sheesh.  Lesson learned the hard way.

    Happy New Year and all the best for 2008!

    I hope your resolution works (mine was similar and lasted two days :) – you see I am back again looking at blogs, emails – everything but concentrating on WORK . . . .

    Must get on LOL

    Regards & Best Wishes

    Happy New Year to you too, Jo!
    2008 is going to be a great year, I can feel it!

    There is a time and place for reading blogs and forums, that’s how we learn, right? ;) And there’s a time and place for commenting on blogs and forums, I get a lot of click throughs to my website when I do that. The hard part is finding the time and place and limiting it! So I’m trying to give it its own special time and not feel guilty when I do it.

    Cheers,
    Peggy

    Hi Peggy….HA!! New Year’s Resolutions!!

    I wish I could keep them for at least a week before they were broken.

    I completely understand about getting caught up in reading everything that comes into your inbox. It all sounds so exciting and tempting, then you go to the website (at least I do, don’t know about you) and most of it is the same stuff, just rehashed……and I don’t want to spend anymore $$ on that stuff.

    I am going to opt in to your resale rights course. Sounds interesting.

    My site will be live hopefully either this weekend or early next week. I am going to be working on getting my autoresponder series loaded this weekend as I have time. Life so gets in the way sometimes.

    I am going to shoot you an email, I have a few questions for you.

    TTYL8tr,

    Ron

    Oh, Peggy — I’m definitely guilty of this — in fact that is why I’m here on your blog – can’t resist checking out everything new!!
    I am trying to cut back, but a whole day? I don’t know if I have the will power….

    Hey Ron, thanks for opting in to my new Resale Rights ecourse. Let me know what you think! I value your opinion. also, let me know when your site is live.

    Thanks for popping in, Diana. I know your time is valuable! Thanks for helping me out on that other project.

    I did find a whole day very hard. How about 2 half days in a week?
    Maybe this quote from George S. Patton will help us:

    “You must be single-minded. Drive for the one thing on which you have decided.”

    So… here’s to being single-minded!
