It’s so easy to get distracted isn’t it?!

We have the best of intentions, but then something comes along and we find we’ve gone half way down that track without even intending to.

Over the past year I’ve read literally dozens of ebooks and reports written by the internet marketing experts. 

The one overwhelming piece of information that they all say is how easy it can be to waste time and not stay focused on the important things.

Let’s have a look at the past 24 hours:-

Emails in about Day Job Killer – a system of making money with PPC advertising (although some think it’s rather unorthodox in it’s approach).  Read reviews from well-known marketers – not all positive and reminded myself that this was NOT related to my main business, so was not relevant.

Email from Matt Callen about Adsense Advantage – offering a free report on how one guy using his HyperVRE system had made over $9000 in just one month.  Well worth a read – although I’d have liked more information – like how much money this guy spent on PPC advertising to get that kind of an income.  You can download Matt’s free report here.

Email from Michael Campbell – general internet marketing info, but suggesting that I subscribe to the Adsense Blogspot update list to get the latest information on making money with Adsense.  I did – am fed up with hearing about it first from Joel Comm!

Dozens of other emails offering new ways to make money – info products, PLR, affiliate, you name it, there’ve been emails about it.

Since I realised just how much time I was wasting just reading through these and chasing off after the latest ” fad” – I’ve been far more strict with myself.

I know what my goal is  – to build my Adsense income by creating quality, informative sites – and if something will help me do that, then I’ll go with it.  Otherwise it needs to be ignored or shelved (if it looks interesting for the future, I’ll print a page out and file it for reference).

This is a key way to build your business – that’s what I’m doing today – adding information and content to my existing sites and the related blogs, posting new articles and building my Adsense income further.

Don’t get distracted – whatever your business, whatever you’re good at – focus on doing more of the same and doing it better!
