7 DAY Challenge with SMART Goals
I was reading a couple of new blog post today on WA and came across this post from Marlene W about Goal Setting
https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/marlene-w/blog/goa...
We have been taught that our goals NEED to meet the Acrostic “SMART which stands for
S – Specific and Significant
M – Measurable and Meaningful
A – Attainable and Action-Oriented
R – Relevant and Rewarding
T – Time-bound and Track-able
I’d like to lay down a challenge to everyone on my list that reads this blog.
What are you going to do THIS WEEK that will move your business forward?
Please think about this before you make a commitment.
The idea is to do something or a group of things that is within your skills but PUSH YOU.
My commitment is
2 Post this week to ChooseSuccess.ca
Publish 1 Post to BarrWorld.com and have 3 more to be published on successive Tuesdays
Complete another set of courses.
Comment on 5 blogs per day with comments of substance.
What Can You Do In 7 Days?

Challenge accepted. I'm going to challenge myself to write 500 words a day for 7 days straight. This should lead to my ultimate goal of getting back on a regular posting schedule. Thanks for throwing down the challenge.

That is a great challenge that I am sure is within your ability but if you are like me and a bit on the busy side it will stretch you to get it done.
Don't forget to tell us what your progress is during the week

7. Help two of my members per day.
Percy, thanks for the reminder about SMART goals. It's good to have something to work towards instead of wandering around as if in the dark. Good luck!
Me too most of the time. Then I remember I have goals and need direction. So I squirm around a bit more, stub my toe and then remember again. It's hard to get started with goals sometimes. :)
That's quite a challenge you've set for yourself, Percy. But I think it's definitely true to say that if you've got a SMART goal down on paper, then you've set yourself up for success.
I like the idea of planning a blog/post schedule, particularly since content is so critical in generating traffic.
Well, I've already done the following:
1) switched SEO to Yoast
2) refactored ALL of my posts and pages (19 in total) so that they are fully optimized.
3) used Google Webmaster to re-index, update sitemaps, apply data highlighting
To do in the next 7 days:
1) create more content (add at least two new posts)
2) work on my social media presence
Let's hope it all pays off!
I see StepChook you are doing the switched SEO to Yoast, refactored ALL,,,,,
Can you please tell me where I can get the instructions to do such?
Thanks in advance,
Sharon
Hi Sharon,
It's really simple. All I did was:
1) log into your site if you haven't already done so.
2) on the left hand side, find Plugins and click Add New
3) in the search box, type "Yoast"
4) from the result set, pick "Yoast SEO" (the one with the traffic light)
5) click Install Now, then Activate
6) then simply follow instructions from there
DO NOT deactivate All In One SEO before fully installing Yoast! Yoast will prompt you when ready to deactivate All In One SEO.
I would also suggest backing up your site before you do anything. I use Filezilla: How to Back Up Your Website With FileZilla via FTP If you have any issues, just ask.
Sharon,
I encourage you to watch Jim-bo's video on Yoast: How I Use Yoast SEO Plugin for My On-Page SEO and Why I Like it! It's really handy.
