My last blog post here was on December 24th... Wow!

My family and I went on a road trip to visit family over December holidays... I actually made it a point to bring my laptop with me, so that I could log onto Wealthy Affiliate in my downtime and continue my Online Entrepreneur Certification training, and continue posting my blogs.

But alas, I wasn't able to... Between 35 hours of total round-trip driving (spread out over several days) and visiting with family, I wasn't able to get much done.

I did manage to subscribe to and listen to a couple of different affiliate marketing podcasts while on the road, so at least I was able to stay "in tune" with affiliate marketing while I was on the road.

Now I'm back... and ready to "get back in the drivers seat" with affiliate marketing.

I wanted to make a New Years Resolution to publish one article every day, spend 2 hours per day on affiliate marketing, etc. But I've already busted that...

I figured that making a "New Years Resolution" cold turkey doesn't work unless you adopt a serious of lifestyle changes and develop new habits... which takes a great deal of planning, premedition, and discipline.

I spent an hour writing one article yesterday, adding images, bridge page links, and interlinks to it, from start to finish.

Today I spent time going through the next training video lesson, on review pages.... Interestingly, the bridge page I had created as per one my previous lessons, was already written in the form of a review page.

So I'm good to go for today, and ready to move on to the next lesson.

I intend to put in 2 hours per day, at least 5 to 7 days per week, and start earning my first dollar in 2019.

I intend to reach an initial, first-stage goal of $100 per day / $3,000 per month online by Decemer 2019.
