I hope everyone had a good year and hope that this new one brings you even more prosperity.

I hear about New Years Resolutions abound around this time.  I hear about losing weight, quitting smoking, being more active, getting motivated, taking the plunge into self-employment, etc. I’m sure all of you have heard the same thing.

My New Years Resolutions:

• Putting out my own products
• Increased Revenue
• More exposure and name recognition

Here is the next kicker: Why do so few actually accomplish their new years resolutions?

My thought is because there isn’t a real significant difference to motivate or push a change in someone’s life.  Just because it says 2010 instead of 2009 in your iPhone doesn’t mean your life is different.  And I think that around February, people start to realize that.

So how will I make sure that I do not fall into this same trap?  How about setting an action plan.  The “ACTION PLAN” is the cursed thing that people keep seeming to peddle like cheap watches.  And everyone wants one but doesn’t seem to use it when they have one.

So it is time to get motivated and start using my action plan.  Here is my action plan for my goals:

Putting Out My Own Products:

1. Search for a product that the market wants
2. Develop a simple version and a complex version
3. Put out the complex version for sale
4. Give away the simple version for free
5. Use the free version in the forums, on open source sites, download sites, torrents, JV’s
6. Use the items to build a list
7. Take care of that list!

Increased Revenue:

1. Product Development and Sales
2. Increased exposure to local offline and global online markets
3. Adding value to current products and services, (extended support, premium services, etc.)
4. Leverage, (affiliate Programs, outsourcing or automating redundant tasks, etc.)

More Exposure And Name Recognition:

1. More activity on YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn, Forums, etc.
2. More activity on Blogs
3. Referral Benefits, (encourage people to spread my name).

Of course each of these individual items can be further broken down into more action plans, but I’m sure you don’t want to read about that

Happy New Year everyone! I hope this year brings much prosperity!
