If you want to get something done, give it to a busy person. People who are already too busy just seem to be able to get additional tasks done too! I think the secret to increased productivity is to apply a few self-improvement ideas.

In so many instances it seems that the more a person takes on, the more efficient they become. Brian Tracy calls it “The Law of Forced Efficiency.” Of course, they may still not get everything done on their list, but they do seem to get more done than they would have if not under pressure.

Not only that, but it forces a person to prioritize their tasks more effectively and focus on what is most important and most urgent. I have to admit that I will often work better under pressure than if think I have all the time in the world to do a task. … Read the rest of this entry

Newcomers to Internet Marketing often have to make decisions about things they know little about, including choosing a domain name that’s suitable for their new business. It’s not as cut and dried as it may appear. A little guidance might help.

When I was an Internet home business newbie I was told to pick a name and register it so the person selling me the service could build the site for me. I do not recall receiving any specific guidance about selecting an appropriate name; just a few generalizations.

So, because I was accustomed only to offline marketing and promotion, not online marketing, I picked a name that I thought would be unique and memorable. Unfortunately, as I later found out, that was not the way to do it online. … Read the rest of this entry
