Picture this, You are sitting at your desk ready to make some calls – BING – an email pops up – You go check it out – It’s from a friend, You HAVE to read it – there is a link in the text, you HAVE to follow it – There is a video. You watch it. It is one of the usual ‘Act now or miss out forever’ over hyped nonsense! You FALL for the bait – Out comes the card – Now you have the latest “Magic Bullet”

Of course, now you have to see how it works. Never mind the fact that by the week-end you won’t even be able to remember the log-in details. What are the odds that the next time that you remember it is when you FORGET that the free trial is running out and they ding your card for the payment! O well, might as well keep it another month now that you have paid. You will remember to cancel it in time before the next payment – Or will you?

Worse still, you just wasted 2 hours of Income producing activity time and ended up SPENDING money instead of MAKING money.

NEVER check email when you are supposed to be doing something else. It is a MAJOR productivity killer. Set 2 times per day for checking and responding to email and STICK to them – Watch your productivity increase.
