Struggling with focus and getting things done
Hi All, been a wee while since really done anything here. I am noticing that I am not putting in any effort here due to basically a tiring 9-5 and a general lack of direction where to start still. Have done a bit of the training and also struggling with writing. Come in at night absolutely burnt out as my job requires a lot of concentration and dedication, by 5 I am goosed for want of a better word!
Anyone had a similar experience got any advice on focus and getting on with things when you are burnt out by the days schedules and activities? Ironically my days work takes up pretty much all of my brain power and drive so have none left by end of day.
Thanks
Andrew

I know how much of a struggle this can be if you also have a demanding full time job. I gave up TV entirely when I first started!
Now, five years later, I start at 5am and have usually finished up everything I need to do within a couple of hours, so I have the rest of the day to do exactly what I want. You could try going to bed earlier and getting up an hour earlier, when you'll be fresh to focus on your site, see if that works for you.
It's also worth getting a plain text app for your phone, so you can write content whenever you have a spare few minutes. Those sentences, added throughout a day, can quickly total up to a new post. :)
Good one Rich, made me think about things, I think I just need to be focused and not lazy when I come in. I can sit on the net and read about how other people are doing things but not doing it myself!
I did hit a bit of a stumbling block with keywords, I wondered if I was even targeting the right audience. Well I think I need to go over that again and decide if it is actually my target audience or not.
Thanks for the reply :)

Here's my dilemma. I'll keep it as short as I can. I just quit a tiring and time sucking 9-5 job. A job that was tiring both mentally and physically. I had no choice. I absolutely hated it so much that I had to leave. Now I've gotten involved in WA but I have no source of income. I have some money saved but not much. We all know how fast money can disappear. And I don't want to go out and get another 30 to 40 hour a week job that will suck up a lot of my time and energy. Besides, I've had my fill of working hard and not getting anywhere and being treated like garbage. Now I know that success with WA will only come with time. I'm just wrestling hard with the uncertainty of not knowing when that time will come as I watch my savings start to dwindle. Add to that the fact that I feel really lost at this point. Any helpful advice that anyone out there can give me would be greatly appreciated.
