Stop procrastinating! What are your income goals for the next 3 months?
Hi, I've only posted here 5 times or so, so I don't know many of you that well. But since this is a very highly trafficked forum, I thought it would be the perfect place for this.
Here's the situation: all my life I've set goals in every area of my life (business, fitness, sports, etc), but up until this point I've only achieved 1 of them.
The reason?
Lack of clarity--my goals have never been specific enough to encourage action. All the results I've gotten to this point have been completely random--I've gone years without seeing significant improvement in any area.
As a perfect example, I've had an online business for the past 4 years... but right now I'm only earning $30/day. And I've been at this mark for the past 12 months.
I've jumped from 1 income strategy to the next... but due to a lack of focus I've never seen any real progress with any of them.
Anyway, I'm tired of the status quo. So here's my goal--I'm going to earn $130/day by June 8. I picked this date because it's almost exactly 3 months from now.
I prefer short term goals because they require immediate action. I've tried setting 5 and 10 year goals but they are so far in the future that I end up forgetting about them completely.
My method will be using Google Adwords advertising to promote affiliate products.
I know there are plenty of better strategies to make money. But instead of jumping from 1 strategy to another until I find that PERFECT one, I need to stay focused on 1 thing until I make it work.
I will be reporting on my progress 1/week--I figure this will be the kick in the butt I need to take action and stay on target with my goals. If I crash and burn, you will ALL know about it.
But lest you think this post is entirely about me...
I know there are plenty others in my situation--you know every strategy to make money under the sun but your income is stagnant or decreasing.
I really believe the reason for this in every instance is because of a lack of clear goals and accountability for achieving them. Most of us on here know more than enough to earn 6 figures a year--our problem is not staying focused and making it happen.
So let's change that: what are your income goals for the next 3-6 months? Do you want to join me in reporting on your progress?
If there's enough interest, maybe we could start a mastermind group. But this post is ONLY for those who are tired of the status quo and ready to change it. Either way, I will still report here every Monday for updates on my progress.
