  One Goal at a Time !

by Lee Pemberton - eCleanAdvisor Business Coach

                     
                        The Advantage of Focusing 
                            on One Goal at a Time 
                                        Post #1:

Special Note: If you're the type of person who likes to be busy, you
probably also take on too many goals at one time! 

  One Goal at a Time &##x21;
However, when you have too many goals, it has a habit of weighing you down, making it much, much harder to see any one of those goals through to the end!
 
>>> How do you handle this tendency? The best way is to narrow down your goals to just one and give it all of your focus and motivation. See it through before you start on the next one.

**#1 - Focus on Prioritizing Your Goals
>>> A common objection is, "But my business has multiple goals.
I can't just focus on one."

>>> Focusing on one goal doesn't mean giving up the rest.
What it means is focusing on one for the time being, and putting
the others on the backburner for now. "For now" could be just
this week or the next few months.
The important thing is that you're focusing!

>>> Decide which goal is the most important through prioritizing.
Take a look at everything you're working on now. Which of these will
have the most positive impact on your business when it's completed?
This is the one you should focus on. You should also keep in mind your
resources. You may have an important goal but lack the resources
right now to carry it out!

**#2 - Work Towards Your Goal as a Learning Experience!
>>> When you focus fully on one goal, you can learn valuable lessons.
This is especially important if you're a small business or entrepreneur with
little experience marketing your business. As you work towards your goal
employing marketing strategies, you'll learn along the way which work
and which don't, and how to carry them out effectively.

**#3 - Use This Knowledge for Future Goals
>>> For example, you may decide to write guest blog posts in order
to drive traffic to your site and spread awareness.

Once you get started, you realize that you could write an email template
for sending inquiries.
>>> The template explains who you are, why you're an expert, and how
your content could
enrich the person's blog. This saves a great deal of
time and you can send out more inquiries, which leads to more blog posts. 
>>> This is the sort of thing you may not have learned if you were
bogged down with several goals or strategies at once. 

**#4 - One Goal and One Marketing Strategy
>>> If you want to really focus and get results, try focusing not only on
one goal but on one marketing strategy as well.
As the guest blogging
example above illustrates, choosing just one strategy allows you to learn,
streamline, and hone your skills. You can then add this strategy to your
arsenal of techniques that you've used before.

>>> People in the business world still sing the praises of multitasking,
but any time management expert will tell you that, more often than not,
it kills productivity and leads to burnout! 

>>> Instead, the key to success is to narrow down and focus, and then
move on to the next task in line!
