The Week That Almost Wasn't

Not Even Trying in Trying Times

So now we're pretty well into the third month of this year, and finally starting to see some traffic for some of my stuff. Still not much money, but some traffic at least.

Most of you don't know, but I saved up enough to quit my job and take 9 months off to work on this and only this.

Today, not a win. In fact this week, not a win.

Dude! Even Master Yoda Knows It!

So I got lazy this week! I admit it. And you know what? I feel bad because of it! I 'purchased' a finite amount of time to make this happen, and every hour counts right?

If we all know that it will take time to make it in this game, then we should maximize every second we have to build our business.

It IS a business and you have to nurture it accordingly.

My goals

So as my final act for the week, I set up a plan for next week. All of it! I think it's important to have it all planned out otherwise I end up checking on Facebook or some other thing that won't help me grow the business.


So, long story short (too late), I was wondering if you guys do the same. Do you plan out the week? A month? The year?

Are you more comfortable just diving in willy-nilly?

Inquiring minds want to know!
