I'm inspired! Started reading Chris Farrell's blog from back in 2008 yesterday. He tells of the journey he experienced starting an online business with no experience, to having internet marketing success.
So here I go -- listing my steps toward a similar goal.

At the beginning of January 2014, I watched a webinar called, 7 Simple Steps to Simplifying Your Business (and Life) in 2014. The steps were:


So here I am doing step 1, Create a What Did I Attempt (?) Today Journal. Not sure about the "A," will go back and listen again to verify.

I figure the best way to keep such a journal is to lists items as I do them throughout the day. Since I have an iPhone, I can probably find some type of app to help me when I'm away from my computer. If anyone reading this blog knows of such an app, please let me know.

Step 2 on the list is called "Schedule Your Next Day." During the webinar, we were encourage to make such a list at the end of the day. I'm not sure about this, 'cause at the end of the day my brain is just about fried. I'm going to try to make this list at the BEGINNING of my day instead and see how it goes. So here's my list for today, (I call it my Plan of ATtack):

Today's PAT:

1. Listen to 1/1/14 webinar on 7 Simple Steps to Simplify... (For those of you that would like to hear the webinar as well, you can. You'll find it at Chris Farrell's Membership site at:

One small problem, you have to join the site to view the video. I was hoping there was still a $1 week trial still available, but there isn't. I can tell you that if you try the site out and don't like it, there's a 30-day money back guarantee, no questions asked.

2. Attend FREE webinar today, 2/8/14, with Chris Farrell interviewing Gary Vaynerchuk. Who is he, I asked myself? Well here is a little info on him:
  • Businessweek has selected Gary Vaynerchuk as one of the top twenty people every entrepreneur should follow.
  • CNN has voted him one of the top twenty five tech investors
  • He has single-handedly build his online business to be worth more than $60million
  • He's been voted one of the most Influential Men of the Year.  When it comes to revolutionizing how to interact online - Gary is the go-to guy
The webinar times are:
  • 1PM Pacific
  • 2PM Mountain
  • 3PM Central
  • 4PM Eastern

3. Set up a DFY, (Done For You), website. These are found on the Chris Farrell Membership site. There are quite a few to chose from -- I'll try to pick one that I can easily do an Ezine article on.


4. Research and write an article on the DFY website niche.


5. Jog 2 - 3 miles on treadmill, (step #5 on the 7 Simple Steps list).


6. Redo my Weebly menu pages.


Well that's my tentative plan for today. I think at the end of the day I'll come back here and note my progress through this list.

Signing off for now at 6:00 am.
