The Third Time's A Charm

Never-give-up.png

Ever learn something as the result of epic failure? I hate to fail but the sting is numbed by coming away with a lesson. From my second attempt at #3StepsNoExcuses Here is the lesson, I should never have signed up for a consecutive 30 day challenge of any kind with out scheduling the time first.

Are You Incredibly Busy?

Whether you have a 40 plus hour a week full time job, or you're a full time entrepreneur, finding the time for another business can be incredibly challenging. Add to that a 30 day challenge and disaster is brewing on the horizon. There is only so much you can do in a day. Remember this is my lesson, I am in no way lecturing just sharing what I learned. This applies to any challenge, especially if it is designed to challenge you.

Yes I did Schedule The Challenge For The Month

Please do not worry I am not a psycho, so some weird control freak. I am weird but for other reasons. 😂 I have set aside 2 hours every day for the next 30 days. The first thing I noticed was less stress. I was able to take my time and really focus my full attention on the task. Watching the first two training modules in Click Track Profit, about 12 short videos filled with info, and there were neat little factoids that I had missed the first 4 times I watched them.

What Did I Sacrifice To Complete Today's Challenge?

Absolutely nothing, taking the time a few days before the challenge to make sure my schedule could support the new time requirements needed for this challenge. Always allow for extra time in case you need to ask questions from your support community. Not understanding a task or how to complete it, will bring your forward progression to a screeching stop. Some of us require extra clarification, and this will require extra time. This time around I am also doing everything I can to complete the three steps in the Click Track Profit dash board, and the Daily Tasks in the recurring tasks section.

Finally The Conclusion

The final thing I am doing differently this time around is I have recorded all of my number before I started the challenge like sales, social media following, crypto stacks, etc... Because I know that when I complete all thirty days of this challenge the impact it will have on my business, and relationships will be considerable.

Thank you so much for reading

Well done for taking on the #3StepsNoExcuses challenge for the third time. You come to it with a lot of accumulated experience and wisdom.

It is much more realistic to schedule two hours to get it done properly each day. It doesn't take so much time to read the daily tasks or watch the videos, but taking appropriate action and then blogging about it requires a significant chunk time.

I also struggled to get everything done, and I was doing it during a long vacation. In the end it took me closer to 40 days to complete it.

Thank you for sharing your experience with me. Are you implementing some of the 3 steps into your normal course of business?

Some of the steps are part of my regular routine, such as commenting and upvoting, or sending out safelist emails and so on. During college term, however, I do very little in the way of creative work. I am about to launch a mini initiative to see if it can help me continue to create content on CTP Talk during busy times...

I could not imagine how demanding your days must be and the feeling of being pulled because you have so many top priorities that demand a lot of your focus and attention. Running a business even a part time business is full time, plus your University work is also full time as well...wow

Because of poor prior planning I never made it all the way through. I am confidant I will this time 😀

I have set aside 2 hours every day for the next 30 days

Time management is very important in my eyes. If I plan my day well and I allocate my time well, I can also get rid of the stress. Things are different when I don't plan my time I always end up multitasking inefficently and getting stressed out :-)
