Productivity/Time Management Wizards...Can I Pick Your Brain?!
I work for an IT company in software sales during the day(9-5:30pm) and get home around 6:30pm. I'm usually pretty wiped out, so I find myself vegging out for about an hour or so, surfing the web or watching youtube, reading random articles, etc. I find I can usually focus a bit better once 7pm rolls around. I'm in bed by around 1am, so I figure that leaves me from 7pm-1am to cover the following projects/activities:
- Workout: 1.5-2hrs(travel time included) 4-5 days/week.
- IM project #1 - Authority Site: After some years away from niche sites, I'm working on setting up an authority site to be monetized with display ads and affiliate programs. My goal is to build this up to receive large amounts of organic traffic over the next 6-12 months, filling it with high quality content. I'll also be sending paid traffic to the site, an area where I am starting to learn. I'm not a total newbie in this regard since I use to make about $3-4k/month with niche sniper sites several years ago. However, things have changed and I'm basically learning this over from scratch following a course with some email coaching alone the way.
- IM project #2 - Infoproduct Funnel - I've chosen a niche where I'd like to build out a full infoproduct business with a series of low-end to higher ticket offerings. My goal is to build large customer list and evolve according to their needs. This is an area where I'm fairly new, in practice. I used to work for a CPA company where we would build out customer funnels, however most of this work was outsourced, so I have little hands-on experience of my own, although I know what needs to be done and I am following a step-by-step course in this regard as well.
- Reading(various categories): I've set a goal to read 2 books per month, so I'm trying to set aside a regular reading time of at least 45mins-1hr every day.
- Volunteer work: Haven't started this yet, but I plan to volunteer 1hr/week.
- Cleaning(dishes, vacuuming, dusting, etc.)
- Internet Shows: I like to spend an hour just watching a documentary or garbage reality shows at some point during my night. This doesn't happen too often, but it's something to look forward to I guess.
- Eating & Meal Prep for next day: Gotta eat at some point
That's basically my weeknights. Pretty boring, I know Anyway, if you have any suggestions on how I might break up the night to cover all the tasks, I'm interested to know. I was thinking about maybe alternating the nights where I would work on the 2 IM projects. Was also wondering if I'd be better off just choosing one of the projects and devoting all my time to that one until it was mostly up and running. I'm pretty motivated these days, just need a solid gameplan. Thanks.
