I love this Kaju! Did you invent the term "Dull Objects" in this context? I think it is a brilliant concept that captures exactly what you illustrated.

I am sure this will be your most productive and successful year yet!

I am proud of myself that I am back to adding content to my sites after my slowdown of the last several months. The earthquakes seem to have FINALLY settled down. We had a 5.0 aftershock on New Year's Eve and many 3s and 4s!

Jessica

Yes Jessica, I believe I have! Thanks for the attribution!
I coined this phrase "dull objects: because it simply made sense to me and fit what I had been doing on several occasions in the past.

I just did a Google search and haven't seen anyone one else using "dull objects" in this context, so YES I can call it proprietary:)

I am proud of you, so happy you are back on track adding content to your sites once again....and above all that you rode out those earthquakes.

Hoping it stays this way...those 3s and 4s are nothing now!
I see a very successful YEAR of 2019 ahead for you and your hubby:)

Kaju

Well good for you! Maybe someday you can write an ebook on "Dull Objects"! The only problem is how to link it to some popular keywords.

Thanks. I hope so too. I am off to a good start so far.

There have been a ton of small aftershocks today. Uggg.I just looked. We had a 3.0 and a 4.0

Excellent! Keep it up Jessica!
I'm always here for support, friend:)

I pray you and your family stay safe, keep us posted.

Kaju

A good message there...I do believe that it is good to take a break now and then just to clear your head, but I agree that it is also too easy to get distracted. I am making a daily list of what I want to accomplish; making the list deliberately a bit difficult, but it is working. I have this love of crossing things off lists. Hopefully the lists will allow me to finish enough each day to feel like I am making progress.

I share your love of crossing things off lists Fran. I will add things just to cross them off!!

lol...I do the same thing...did something that wasn't on that long list, so write it on there just because it feels so good to cross it off.

Ya, I used to love crossing things off lists. I still do....but I enjoy DOING the deeds even more, Fran!

Keep consistently crossing those items off your lists, and it will definitely lead to a very successful year:)

Kaju

I like that Jessica!

That's fun, it'll feel better though every time you cross off something that was already ON the list:)

Oh, yes, I am getting those too.

Excellent:)

Thanks for your advice!

Always a pleasure WAA!

Great advise. As of December 26, every single day I have to remind myself that I will focus on the ONE most important thing that I need to be doing.

Granted, I have allocated about 30 minutes each day to ensure that I can reads posts similar to this one that reminds me of my goals related to focusing on the ONE thing that will allow me to help the most people so that I can make them most money.

Thanks!

Thanks Sondra, I'm really happy you allocated 30 minutes to such posts like these, so you can remind yourself on focusing only on the most important thing:)

For that is truly the key to success, and when you are TRULY successful you can help more people:)!

Kaju

Once again, thank you for your sharing and teaching, Kaju!
I had been one of the SOS chasers until I stumbled upon WA. Money was wasted too. The upsell you mentioned sounds familiar. Ha.
I've bookmarked this too and coming back for revision when I need it. Thank you and wishing you great health and wealth! Do take care, Kaju! :o)

Glad you are No More Terand:)
Been there, done that too:(
Never again!

Please come back and revisit anytime my friend!

Too Health and Wealth in 2019,
Kaju

Kaju,

You are right on point, right on time, and alright with me!

We all at some point get to a state (hopefully it's a short one) where we want things to happen now, or our heads are on the shiny objects or the dull objects.

The key is not to "reside" there!

The best way to do that is to incorporate your 2019 Golden Rule #3!

Golden!!

All the best,

Diane

Thanks Diane, true dat!
Let's not reside in that "forbidden" zone, and succumb to those shiny and dull objects:)

2019 Golden Rule #3 all the Way!
