Hi Friend
One of the keys to accomplish
what you want is to focus on it.
**********************
New to this group?
You can read about my
Friday Focus Group
and the Friday Blueprint
at the end of this message.
**********************
When you tell yourself things
like "I want to write an eBook"
or "I want to get 10 prospects
for my business this week"
or anything else...
You then have to focus on it.
I'm not saying to focus on
"having" the result you want, I'm
saying to focus on "getting" it.
Now things you "have" are there
because you worked to get them,
or someone gave them to you or
sold them to you.
The point is that you already
"have" them, so there's nothing
to do to get them.
Or, if you're wanting to "have"
them some time in the future,
then you're really just dreaming
about them.
Now, if you're determined to "get"
something that you don't already
"have"... then you must do something
to get it, right?
That's where you'll need to have
very sharp focus.
Focus is when you stop seeing things
around you... distractions.
You focus ONLY on what you want
to get.
But, understand this:
To get something, you must take
action.
You must do something or else you
can't get it.
You can't get something you don't
reach out to grasp.
And the action you take must be
focused solely on getting that
one thing that you've decided is
very important in your business.
If you need an eBook to get your
business moving in the right
direction...
focus on ONLY that until you've
gotten it.
If you need 10 prospects, don't
get sidetracking with ANYthing
until you've pulled those 10 people
into your business.
This week, as you draw up your
Friday Blueprint, decide on the
one thing that's most important
to your business right now.
Then focus on getting it next week.
If it's a big thing, like building
a membership site, then put the
6 or 8 or 10 steps down that you
need to take, and make sure to
focus on step #1 and turn it from
a "must do" into "completed" item
on your list.
You can do this.
But you must focus.
If you choose not to do this, you'll
undoubtedly be in the same place
you're in right now... 6 or 9 or 12
months down the road.
I invite you to send me your
Friday Blueprint right now.
I always enjoy reading them, and
helping you out along the way.
Love your great
input here.
Hit "REPLY" :)
Talk soon,

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
