Passions That Pay

I am a single mom of 3 children and today is the first day of vacation. Ahead of me lies 3 months of trying to run a business and be a mom at the same time without the respite that school offers. Also I will be out of the country for a few weeks.

Summer can be a struggle-focus which can be difficult at the best of times seems to go out of the window when there are so many temptations and distractions. There are things I need to get done this summer so that I will be ready for both a product launch and an exciting new group coaching program (watch this space for more information on both). Therefore my plan for the summer is to make sure that I am on point at all times, that when I am working, I am focussed on tight and well defined goals giving me lots of time to spend with my children.

So these are my major goals for summer 2008:

1. Finish up my signature product - a Business Readiness Checklist.
2. Write the sales letter for the above product.
3. Launch my new coaching program on Success Mindsets starting in September and execute the marketing plan.
4. Plan for big party in September for my 40th!! Whoohoo (yes it will be work related!)
5. Write the curriculum for the series of classes I will be offering from October onwards to teach the basics of online business.
6. Reassess social networking and explore 3 new sites.
7. Continue working with my present clients and aim to draw in 3 new clients by September for one to one coaching.
8. Continue to work and to tweak my present marketing plan.
9. Take time out to spend with my children and to exercise!

So please share with me some of your goals for this summer - it is amazing that just writing them down - especially somewhere as public as a website - seems to ensure that they get completed!
