Another weekend is
rolling around and
it's time to focus
on what will matter
most in the days
to come.

If you're new to my
Friday Focus Group,
you can read about
it at the end of this
message.

Now...

I know this is a long
holiday weekend for
many of us.

But I find times
like this are
often great for
getting my head
clear on where
I'm going with
my blog.

Here's the thing.

Repetition.

Consistency.

Progress.

You need all of
it to run a top
ranking blog or
online enterprise.

Many things need to
get done over and
over again.

That's repetition.

Writing up your
Friday Blueprint
will set you off
on the right foot
for next week.

It will get all the
"post it's" out of
your brain.

I once did a video
on the topic of
procrastination

I had a bunch of
sticky posts on my
head, and I peeled
them off one at a
time... haha

That was pretty funny,
but the point was,
don't leave them there.

They'll weight you
down and confuse you.

It you've got too
many of them, they'll
overwhelm you.

Then, you probably
won't do anything
productive next week
until Wednesday
(especially this week
in the U.S. where we
have a 3 day weekend!).

Consistency.

That's why I remind
you each and every
week to jot down your
Friday Blueprint.

When you don't take
a few minutes to plan
ahead... you've made
a conscious decision
that next week will
be filled with confusion
and NON-productive
scrambling around with
no clear direction.

Also, to make real
progress in your
business, you have to
add new things along
the way, a bit at a
time.

Remember to always
include on new thing
you'll do over the
next few days.

Not just anything.

Specifically...

One new thing that
will make a difference
in your bottom line.

That's Progress.

Do you really think
it will happen if you
don't schedule it...
on you Friday Blueprint...
to actually happen...
at a certain date and time?

Here's my challenge for
you today.

Send me your
Friday Blueprint
right now.

I always enjoy
reading them, and
helping you out
along the way.

If you don't know what
I mean by "Friday
Blueprint"... read the
"PS" section below.

Happy holiday weekend.

Love your great
input here.

Hit "REPLY" :)

PS:

================== >>
If you're new to
my newsletter...

Here's what my
"Friday Focus Group"
is all about.

This was the first
email I sent out
introducing folks
to it.
================== >>


This is not a "group"
in the official sense.

I didn't wake up and
say "I think I'll start
this thing..."

But I've been talking
some lately about how
I use Friday as a focus
day.

I create my Blueprint for
the next week each Friday.

Then, starting Monday
morning, I know exactly
what I've got to do in
order to accomplish my
goals for the week.

On a larger scale, I see
my weekly goals as baby
steps toward achieving
my "Big Goal".

I usually set a "Big Goal"
as a 6 to 8 week goal that
I really want to reach.

That, of course, is a milestone
toward achieving my big, big,
big goal... operating a
successful online business.

Now, to operate a successful
online business, it is necessary
to constantly strive to reach
my "Big Goals."

So you see, it's all too big
to do unless I put all my focus
on one week at a time.

That's what my Friday Blueprint
is for.

It keeps me from developing a
"wandering eye" or "jumping
the fence" for each new thing
that looks intriguing or easy.

==> Here's the thing.

I'm rambling.

Let me stop and tell you what
this email is about.

Lots of folks who are on my
email list = thanks for your
loyalty :) =

Lot of folks on my list have
been replying to my emails to
tell me about their goals and
their own "Friday Blueprints."

Then they follow up and tell
me how it's progressing.

A few people have been doing
this every single Friday.

They tell me their goals for
the next week one Friday.

The next Friday, they report
back and tell me how they did,
plus... what their new Blueprint
is for the next week.

So they've kind of established
an accountability relationship
with me right from this email
list.

And I've seen them grow through
doing this, plus, I give some
feedback from time to time.

(Hey! I usually charge for my
email coaching, so you get a
little freebie here for being
my loyal sub, heehee)

That's it, really.

You wanna play?

Just reply to any of my Friday
emails and tell me what your
Blueprint is for next week.

Then, make yourself accountable
to me (and to yourself)... by
letting me know how you made out
with it, where you slacked off,
where you exceeded your goals,
etc.

Nothing formal.

Nothing to sign up for.

Just do it!

I'll be happy to be your support
and accountability partner.

Send me your Friday Blueprint
right now.

I love my weekend reading :)

Talk soon,

Donna
