Overcommitted?

Are you feeling overwhelmed? I know I am.

I've overcommitted to too many things at once: Toastmasters, Consulting, Websites, WA, Church, and on and on.

So what choices do we have?

1. Quit

To me, quitting is not a good option. Creating passive income streams is part of my wealth strategy. Quitting would simply delay my future plans. Quitting can also create a pattern making it more difficult to succeed in the future.

2. Give up other activities

Personally, I've made commitments that I can not easily abandon. For some, their bread and butter job cannot be abandoned until they have replacement income. Fortunately for me, I will be able to reducement commitments in a few months and spend more time with WA activities.

3. Reduce commitment to WA

This is my current strategy for the next few months. However, I am being very specific in my commitment to WA activities by stating my commitment in writing. I also have an accountability partner who will be checking up on my commitment.

My Commitment (as an example:

I, Rich Fulton, do hereby commit to spending at least 30 minutes per day, 5 days per week in activities related to building businesses based on Wealthy Affiliate principles.

The Key Question

What are you willing to do to keep your business dreams alive? Hopefully, you can commit to at least a few minutes a day to keep your dream moving forward!

Best wishes,
