- you'd probably be far more strict with yourself.

Know what your goal is - for example, my own goal is "to build my Adsense income by creating quality, informative sites". If something will help you to achieve that, then find out more about it. Otherwise ignore it or shelve it (if it looks interesting for the future, just print a page out and keep it on file for future reference).

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 you've probably read literally dozens of ebooks and reports written by the internet so-called experts in your field.

So, how do you avoid the information overload and start to build a successful business?

Let’s have a look at my own distractions during a typica 24 hour period:-

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.

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!

That's just a few of the dozens of emails offering new ways to make money - info products, PLR, affiliate, you name it, there’ve been emails about it.

How Do You Avoid Distraction?

Stay focused - know what you want to achieve.

Don't waste time - if you realised just how much time you are wasting just reading through emails or chasing off after the latest ” fad” - you'd probably be far more strict with yourself.

Otherwise ignore it or shelve it (if it looks interesting for the future, just print a page out and keep it on file for future reference).

Keep an Action List - this is a key way to build your business - write down what you need to do each day and each week and stick with it.

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