Spring Cleaning

I blame Wealthy Affiliate... I really do. Ever since I joined WA I have done the absolute bare minimum of housework everyday (unpack & pack the dishwasher, clean the surfaces, pick up stuff on the floor that might kill us), and so mess and clutter is accumulating - not to mention dirt and dust.

Fortunately we have a miracle worker who comes to clean every 2nd Monday. I feel for her, she works like a trojan from 8 to 6pm and while she works my toddler messes, so by the time she leaves, invariably its not spotless anymore.

My husband, bless his heart - rarely complains about how little I do, and he is the one who does most of the cooking and grocery shopping. Plus of course, he's been the sole breadwinner for the last 2 & a half years.

But I know, deep down, that I'm not much of a home-maker, it's not my forte. I I feel a twinge of guilt about it every now and then. But here's the thing - I detest housework. It's boring, repetitive and thankless. And tomorrow it's back. The same stuff I did today. And I have MUCH better things to do with my time.

I'd far rather be here, building websites, writing articles, finishing my book, and being inspired by all you lovely people.

So I've set a new goal for myself. It's Autumn in South Africa now - by Spring (22 September), I'd like to see enough income from my online business to have domestic help every day.

6 months to learn what I need to learn, and do what I need to do, in order to:

• attract traffic to my sites
  • build my list of subscribers
    • enthrall them
    • inspire them
    • earn their trust
      • and bring in some monthly sales

And that's how I intend to get my Spring Cleaning sorted this year.

Who's with me?
