Progress Report: Goals

By Darren L Carter

As of this update I have reached my first milestone of 150 visits to my site! I guess that was a bit of a small goal so I’ve upgraded it!

Goals by July 21st (After this date I will no longer have a job and my cost of living will approximately double.)

  • $1455 from online.
  • 1455 people on list.
  • Create own free product and PPP around it.
  • Enter at least 1 niche market using Alex Jeffreys’ model and mentoring.

Milestones:

  • Get 1 person on my mailing list.
  • Make 1 dollar from my PPP.
  • 150/1000 (reached this goal on May 21st so I’ve upgraded)
  • 500/2000 Visits/Pageviews to blog (determined by Google Analytics)

Immediate and Daily Tasks to Reach Milestones:

  • Post daily high value (HV) comments on other MWA 3.0 student blogs
  • Post daily HV comments on bigger, more established blogs.
  • Identify blogs that send me more traffic and focus on giving high value comments to those.
  • Post daily in forums (warriorforums, know any others?)
  • Write something of value (quote from another blog, idea for blog, product, business)
  • Track daily time spent productive and wasted (using daily did sheet and hamburger timer)
  • Plan tomorrow today

Ongoing tasks:

  • Build detailed 90 day plan (paper first)
  • Continue building Mind Map (mindmeister)
  • Tweak blog (make it better, write down things I like from other blogs to implement later, brainstorm new HV content.)

There you go guys,

That’s where I’m at right now to go from zero to being a successful internet entrepreneur.

I appreciate all the feedback and support from everyone!

Peace,
Darren L Carter

    The specificness (…if that’s even a word…) pf your goals is what’s going to make you a success.

    Once you’ve got that much detail, there is no way you can fail to reach them.

    • Hey Nathan, thanks for looking at it!

      I figure if I really want to succeed at it I need to be thorough. You should see the papers I’m using as my more detailed tasklist. Keep up the good work on your blog too!

    You are the man! I love that you have set your goals and really immersed yourself in the training. Everything I have seen of you in the blogs you have lived up to your goal of delivering value.

    Your posts are fresh and inspired. I really enjoy your style.

    • Thanks Joanne!

      I’m trying to really hold myself accountable for this training so the support from all the students is great!

      And thanks for letting me know about the comments on the Life Changing Wisdom page. Looks like changing themes has done something with the comments. I didn’t notice till you said something, thanks.
