I have this really bad habit of creating unrealistic goals for practically everything I plan in my life. It stems from not accurately assessing how much time I truly need to manage my life. I usually never have ALL of the time to I think I have to devote to a particular project, but writing and article marketing is important to me. It is my business. It is my passion. It is what works! So I have to commit a certain amount of time to it. And so should you. So how should you achieve this? Well you really need to set realistic writing and article marketing goals. Because when you do that, you will end: 1. writing frustration 2. incomplete writing 3. poor quality writing 4. zero article production If you are ready to end this type of low article marketing results and writing frustrations, here is an idea of how I like to set realistic article marketing goals for myself... 1. I bought a kitchen timer (a pyrex one to be exact) from the supermarket. Nothing fancy, although they do have these cute chicken timers that you can buy from any cooking section in a department store or Amazon. 2. I decide on what I'm working on. An article. A chapter in my book. An infoproduct section. Whatever. I commit to writing only that. 3. Based on the task, I allot a certain amount of time for it. Thirty minutes for articles. Sixty minutes for products and book chapters. (This is all rough draft work of course) 4. I check the timer once. When I'm at 10 minutes before time is up - I start wrapping things up. And that could mean finishing a paragraph or even just finishing a sentence. It doesn't matter. You do not have to finish or complete the whole task. 5. When the timer goes off - I give it respect and stop what I am doing. I then go to my next task to complete whether it be an additional writing assignment or some other part of my business. If I have some time leftover of my "work day", I will devote it to finishing the writing project I started earlier. Otherwise - I will simply continue where I left off the next day. QUICK TIP: Write the same time everyday. Waiting to write when inspiration hits - may mean you won't write until next year, and we know based on results that article marketing works best when you are consistent.
