Progress Report – 100713 Completed Two Website Makeovers

As you see from my previous post today, Failure is NOT an Option, today started with a rough beginning.  This morning and this afternoon I just took my mind off what I need to do and did whatever came to mind.  It turns out that I answered a few posts on the Warrior Forum and posted the Failure is NOT an Option message on here.  The rest of the afternoon, I relaxed and rested until dinnertime.

Website Makeovers

After dinner, I browsed through my list of websites to make sure the script kiddies hadn’t been around and found one that needed a little touch-up.  Actually, there were two on my task list with similar needs.  So I took a few minutes and touched them up.  Now I have two more websites removed from my list!

My Organization

Clarification: A Project (make breakfast) is made up of Tasks (cook eggs, cook toast, pour a glass of milk.)

I have three marker boards that I have organized into a very complex check list of projects and tasks I need to be working on.  One lists certain resources I have and a list of projects I want to work on.

Across the top of the second board are the six higher priority projects.  Under each project name is a list of tasks required to complete the project. The projects include websites, articles to write, PLR products to convert, software or scripts to learn, etc. Tasks are the things I need to do to complete the project.

The third board has only two areas. The left column, titled, This Week, lists what I expect to get done, and under that, the priority task for each project on the second board.  The rest of the board is my work-space.  I use it to outline my task, if necessary, or to jot important notes down temporarily related to today’s work.

The process is to move the top four projects from various collumns on board 1 to the row at the top of board 2.  Board 2 has six collumns: Misc. for unattached tasks, LiveOffTheWeb for what I need to do here, and four projects chosen from Board 1.  Beginning each week,  I copy the most important two tasks from each project on board 2 to collumn 1 on board 3.  This leaves me a tightly defined list of tasks to work on for the week.  I can do them in the order of my preference and I scratch through them as they are completed or terminated. Each week, or when they are all scratched off, I mark the completions on Board 2 and replace the left column in Board 3 with the next set of priorities.

Accomplishments

With the passing away of the zombies, the final touches on two auto-blogs and the failed LoW project, I am left with only one Misc task on Board 3.  On Board two, I have one project on hold, LoW and Misc left.  So, tomorrow, I should complete the Misc task and be ready to reload board 2 with a new set of projects.

Well, it is tomorrow, again, so I need to take a nap until my baby wakes in the morning.

Good night, or day.
