30DC and Affiliate Summit - Last Push Before Vacation
I am about to go on vacation for about three weeks. Realistically I know that my time online will be very limited. Since I decided to venture out on my own I have been involved in a lot of things and feel like I have been torn in 30 different directions: consulting, affiliate marketing, designing a new product, and everything in between. Add to that the 30 Day Challenge and Affiliate Summit I have a lot going on which makes it very hard to know that for three weeks I won’t be able to spend time online.
The positive side of this trip is going to be the ability for me to clear my mental clutter. Right now I think about so many things at once that it makes it very hard to focus on any one specific thing. I am a true believer that sometimes it is best to do one thing well than a hundred things half assed.
I created a few mental exercises for while I am away to help me get back on track.
First week I will not do anything related to my work. This included checking email, checking on clients, checking my affiliate accounts, checking adsense, or anything else online. This shouldn’t be too hard because the first few days will be spent on a train. The purpose is to clear my mind completely and enjoy the moment.
The second week will be a time for me to reflect on what is it that I want to be doing five years from now. What is it that I would like to build that will both satisfy my monetary needs and will give me a sense of accomplishment. I have a list of a few things that are all in the pipeline, I just have to figure out which one will be best for me in the future.
- Creating a Product
- Building an Agency
- Affiliate Marketing
- Online Publishing
- Buying and Selling Websites
- Find Investors for Some More Ambitious Projects
- Mobile Business
- Recipe Site
- Go back to Wage Slavery… jk!
The third week will be spent mostly in Germany so hopefully the culture shock will help recharge my creativity. By focusing on one thing my brain will come up with the path that is most efficient to the end goal I desire. When I come back to San Francisco the only thing left will be to follow through with the plan.
