Default May Challenge - Next Level Personal Development

Hi. I'm Jason.

In this post I'm going to document my goals for May and how I will take the art of personal development to the next level.


Physical - Lose 20 pounds.

How - Jogging 2 times a week. Lifting weights 2 times a week. Eating clean.

Financial - Top 3 in sales for month of May.

How - Working a minimum of 10 hours a day, positive attitude, and relentless work ethic.

Predicted income - 10k.

Online Income

Goal - Make 3 thousand dollars

How - I have one website that has been generating 1000 dollars per month. I will redesign that and promote it more. Especially in Europe, Germany, and Australia. I also have another website that just went live. It should bring in a nice chunk of change once visitors start coming in. I will spend 30 minutes to an hour promoting that site.

What else? I have bought the BANS (Build a Niche Store) program and I will begin implementing that as well. Having 5 stores by the end of May will be required.

Ebay - Start listing more products on Ebay. Research opening an Ebay store.

Dropship Directory. I subscribed to a trusted and reliable dropshipping service but haven't tapped into the resources it provides. I must develop a working relationship with 2 vendors and start selling their product on Ebay or a stand alone site.

Develop a Web 2.0 Site

The company that designed my latest site does an excellent job and has the best customer support I've ever dealt with in my life. They are nice, smart, and forward thinking. I'm going to collaborate on a site that should make me a ton of money if done correctly. A web 2.0 venture that lets users control the content and generates good money via ad revenue.

Upgrade Wardrobe

My fashion sense is pretty good but I haven't really bought any new dress clothes in months. I'm going to buy three really nice work/business outfits that really look good.

My 30-Day Trial for May is waking up at 6:00 a.m. I'd try more than one, but I'm not ready yet.

Started Utilizing Toodledo. Very effective. I diligently complete my tasks one by one and implementing habit into my life is essential to success.

Physical - I had softball practice tonight. Burned some Cals and hit a few bombs.

Job - Slacked off. Need to tighten that aspect up.

Internet Income - Didn't work on websites but discussed finer points of my proposed dating site w/ my web development team. If all things go right..I should get that project underway in a few days.

What key did I learn today?

The next stay starts the night before. Successfully planning the next day before you go to bed is a great way to get a jump start on everyone else. NFL coaches are always trying to find advantages against their competition, why shouldn't you.

Tomorrow I'm going to put more effort into work and start focusing more on my existing sites.

Default i just watched a new film about personal effectiveness

The film is called The Opus and its similar to The Secret, but it goes more in depth with how to achieve success. Lots of the members from The Secret are in this film. Steve's latest article on lightworkers reminds me of the film significantly. Thought I'd just tell you guys about it! I'm interested to know if anyone else has heard of it? Thank god its Friday!

Oh and my goals are to graduate from school by December and to get a grip on my finances (isn't that everyone though?).
