I am finding that WA can eat a large chunk of time. What with answering people, so much to devour content wise, and training. On top of that I need to have a life outside.
With one hour without the kids, much things can be done.
So my best time is one hour after all kids went to bed; and one hour before they wake up.
I'm having the hardest time with this. I get distracted by many things. Like last night I was going to do some lessons but I got distracted with changing my blog theme and designing it again. So now I'm stuck on that and I still haven't written any posts. It's becoming frustrating to get done what I need to get done.
I am reading that breaking down your time works. So I'm using rewards. If I finish a training or a set of tasks, I get to follow up my follows. It's working so far. I hope that helps
That is a super good question and I still struggle with it all the time.
Open up a notepad page in your smartphone, or get a tablet and start logging down every task you do and how long you spend on it for a time to give you a good picture.
Then sit down and prioritize what you are doing with a number system perhaps like 1 is really time spent building business and 5 being time a wasted i.e. like watching TV (a ha!)
No remember the goals we set up in the beginning of our training session (the green button on the left)... Note: If you don't remember that then you already made the first mistake for someone who wants to build a business : ).
Anyway, Look at your goals and determine how important enough is it to you? Just play money? Serious money? etc.
Now match that against your time log and see what tasks you can do away with or reduce to a moderate requirement for your life and emphasize what you need to do to meet your goals.
Finally, Know that you want to set a pace that will help you meet your goal without being burnt out before you even get started. you know the saying, "all work and now play...."
Take time to standup and take a break, play with the kids, talk to the wife (very important). and forge on.. .
Great Stuff Billy!! I have added today a 50/10 rule stretch or walk every 50 minuets or so. Thanks for the advice. I wish you much success and joy

What are your best practices regarding time management ?

The good thing about Wealthy Affiliate is that you are doing the training at your own pace. Don’t rush it. Do the tasks at a pace that is manageable. You can see that Kyle recommends a break from training after 5 lessons to catch up or to relax.
Here are some tips that might help:
• Always find for yourself a designated area that can provide you with a conducive work environment, whether you are at home, or at some other place you prefer.
• Make a daily, weekly, or monthly plan which details what need to be done and when to do them. This is to avoid distractions and enhance your productivity.
• Take breaks and don’t forget to exercise. Working at home can turn you into a workaholic and you may become sedentary.

What with training, and great classes, and community, and so much content, I find myself all over the WA site. I am learning and meeting great people, but I also want to focus
Start with the Online Entrepreneur Certification Courses. Find your niche (your passion), follow the training and complete the task-based assignments. When you get stuck, ask the community. If you want to focus on building your online business, do not mind the WA ranking so much, do not be distracted by it. Your business is more important than the ranking. If you are passionate about the niche of "making money online", then the WA Affiliate Program is a good place to start.
