How To Plan -- It's Important

This is not leisure reading if you want a direction
to start a successful online business. This is an
exercise you need to do if you plan to get any
benefit from it. I assure you that, even if you just do
the exercises and never follow through, you'll get
significant benefit from it.

Stressout. Info-overload. Technophobia. Burn-out.
No direction.

Any of those words ring a bell? That's what I
hear most of the time.

One question that has come up in my emails most
of the time seems to always come in two parts:

1. How do I learn this stuff, it's so
technical, and...

2. I barely have time to keep up with what
I already have on my plate.

Choose what you like and TAKE ACTION.

Yes, I'm serious.

You need a direction ... a PLAN.

I know it's hard to do that because normally
work can't be fun ... or can it? I'll tell you it
can be fun if you KNOW HOW TO 'work' on it.

First thing first -- What's your MAIN GOAL
to make money online?


When you list the goal, describe it. Be
specific about what you want. It's next to
impossible to achieve something without
knowing what it is that you want.

(Example: I want to make money online is
because I want to quit my job and stay
home with my kids when they're growing up)

_______________________________________

Feels good after writing that down?

Now, your goal will be your MAIN MOTIVATOR.

I Really Enjoy...

Write a simple list, but you need to take it
very seriously. Be honest with yourself.

What three things in life do you really enjoy
the most? What would you do if you don't make
money from doing this online?

My Interests Are ...

List anything at all that you find interesting.
Doesn't matter what it is. If you're interested
in it, if it grabs your attention even a little bit,
write it down because it can end up to be
your online business one day.

Once you have that in mind, you need to ..

Take the Steps!

Taking The Step 1

The step of making money online (affiliate program,
eBay, selling ebooks, etc) I am focusing on right now is:

_______________________________________


How long it will take to get started? Can I start
it by next week?

_______________________________________


1. What financial resources do I need to accomplish
this? How much will it cost?

_______________________________________

_______________________________________

_______________________________________

_______________________________________

_______________________________________


2. What skills will I need to achieve this? What do
I need to know how to do?

_______________________________________

_______________________________________

_______________________________________

_______________________________________

_______________________________________


3. What contacts will I need to achieve this? Who
can help me get there? Who do I know, and who
do they know? What do I need to do in return?
(Or in advance...)

_______________________________________

_______________________________________

_______________________________________

_______________________________________

_______________________________________


Taking The Step 2

4. How much time will this stage take? Overall?
Per day? (Example, 1 hour a day, etc)

_______________________________________

_______________________________________


5. What systems will I need to have in place to
achieve this? Will I need help, or can I do it alone?
What will help speed this up?

_______________________________________

_______________________________________

_______________________________________

_______________________________________

_______________________________________


6. How can I make this part easier on myself? What
can I do to achieve this faster, cheaper, and
with less risk?

_______________________________________

_______________________________________

_______________________________________

_______________________________________

_______________________________________


Taking The Step 3

7. What else will I need to do, get, or learn in
order to complete this step?

_______________________________________

_______________________________________

_______________________________________

_______________________________________

_______________________________________


8. What can I do to improve the results? Where
can I learn this?

_______________________________________

_______________________________________

_______________________________________

_______________________________________

_______________________________________


Don't say I didn't warn you earlier -- This is not for
leisure reading. It's 'painful' to do this exercise but
if you do it, you're going to have a clear direction
where to start. This will ultimately take you to success.

So, ask yourself ... is your FUTURE IMPORTANT?

If your answer is yes, do the exercise now.
No more excuses.
