Tip 13. Avoid stress

Take your time, don't let anything rush you. When you find yourself being stressed out. Take a moment of Zen. Take a deep breath, say to yourself it is not a sprint, it's a marathon. Every step you take will bring you closer to your goal. Enjoy your steps!

Listen to this Zen music

Tip 14. Take breaks

A truck driver has to take breaks, he has a tachograph. 3,5 hours driving, 45 minutes rest. Keep a schedule for your business too. Work no longer than 90 minutes in a row. Do not rush your dinner or coffee break. Take your time. Exercise a bit. And for sure, don't eat your dinner while working!

Tip 15. Deadlines

When you have set a deadline for yourself, don't break it! Keep yourself to it! Once broken a deadline, always broken deadlines. It sneaks into it.

Tip 16. Lists

Make a list for one day. And make that list for the next day at the end of each working day. Everything what comes into your mind during the day you write on another list. Make a daily manageable list depending on how much time you have.

The things you have not got round, you move to the first tasks of the next day.

some great tips here, I actually had a laugh at the notepad one, I wish I could write in my sleep, it seems the time when I get my best ideas is when I'm just about to fall asleep...and never a pen or a pad nearby... wish I could remember them when I wake up!

I get ideas driving the car, and I use my recorder, otherwise I really can't remember getting home after shopping.

Loes as always you are helping your fellow workers. If they follow this list their websites will see fruit much quicker than if they just meander without a daily list and schedule. I think that these are the most important things to a website that makes money.
Thanks for your efforts in helping others.

Great points Loes . There are a few of them Ineed to start working on today. I have a problem with 17.
My desk used to be the dash of my truck and was always covered. Now it appears that habit has followed me into the house.
I have everything in its place , I just don't know where the place is at.
