Okay, I am probably one of a million odd-people making a New Year's resolution. But I recently read on another blog that rather than make a new year' s resolution, we should look at making new year goals. This makes far more sense to me than a series of 'promises' that always seem to be broken within about 2 months!
So here are my new year goals for 2010:
1. To make $500 a day from internet marketing by 31 March 2010.
2. To quit my desk job by 31 March 2010.
3. To be more organised and efficient with my time.
To explain further:
1. Make $500 a day from internet marketing by 31 March 2010.
This would allow me to quit my desk job and focus on scaling my efforts with internet marketing. I figured if I can make $500 a day consistently, then increasing that to $1,000 a day shouldn't be that difficult. It's the first dollar that is always the hardest to achieve.
To break this down further I need to focus on one or two websites and techniques at a time. The danger is jumping from one thing to another and never spending enough time on one thing.
2. Quit my desk job by 31 March 2010.
I start work again in a few weeks time – Eek! But if I can make $500 a day from internet marketing, then I can throw in the job and focus my efforts on doubling this to $1,000 and then $2,000 etc a day. That is, it becomes a proper business that I can focus on.
3. To be more organised.
Yes, the bane of my existence is feeling like I am chasing my tail! I need to stop wasting time on frivolous tasks such as checking my facebook, reading emails that have nothing to do with my business, getting distracted by other things that don't add to my skill set or business activities etc.
Now that you know my new year goals, what are your goals for 2010?
(fingers crossed!). Plus I can probably make all the flowers I need in 1 night.
and I can't believe how quickly it has gone by! It has been about 11 months since I went on leave and going back into the corporate world tomorrow seems like the dream has ended and the nightmare is starting ….
