Today’s task is going to be mind-blowingly simple… but it will set up your future success.

The Daily Do: take 10 minutes now to block time for marketing.

Some tips:

  • Know thyself. Much like exercise, I won’t get to it if it is late in the day. It’s early or never for me. What’s the equivalent truth for you?

  • What matters is consistency. Can you dedicate 15 minutes a day or maybe 1 - 2 hours per week?

  • DON’T block a time that you know will be constantly moved or interrupted. Once you start skipping or moving it, you’ll do it every time.

  • Make a vow: you are going to do this.

  • It’s easy to say “I don’t have time for marketing, I’m too busy.” But the truth is you aren’t, and this could be the most valuable thing you do for yourself.

  • Now go to your calendar and block that time.

A few ideas:

  • Can you start every Monday from 8a - 9a when your household is out the door but you haven’t opened your inbox full of distractions quite yet?

  • Would a Friday morning date with yourself in a quiet spot (or as a treat: at your favorite tea or coffee shop) be enticing?

  • Is 10 minutes a day more realistic than weekly… or would it be better to block a half day or full day once or twice a month?
