DAY 9 UPDATE: Friday, 15-Oct-2004 9:50 PM
Once again, the end of another long week.
My start was terrible. Something about SHRIMP --It's gotten me in trouble several times, but I seem to revisit it about every decade. I was in college when I was taken to the ER after eating shrimp. I remember someone asking "Who's the president?" "Bush" I replied, thinking this cannot be. That was Bush SR. and now with "W" I have done it again.
Never again. No more shrimp.
I'll have some thoughts on diet at a later time when I update all the STEPS, but now I have to talk about more plans for the coming weeks.
First some goals: I have to get to STEPS 17 soon. Perhaps, before Thanksgiving time this year. Let's see... It seems to be on the 25th of November. I need to be at STEP 17 by then.
Remember, that's 5 X $655.36 or $3276.80 for all 5 attempts. I have to have this "in the bank" and I have about 5 weeks to go. Not an easy task, but note that I have a "collectable" outstanding in the business package that I sold to a business acquaintance. I hope I can collect those funds or at least a part of it and keep going.
On other fronts I have made great progress, but it may seem less as I have written less and thought a lot.
Guess I need to put more thoughts on-line as well.
I will.
Ok now on to more thoughts as this week comes to an end.
At the top of my mind is the need to generate more cash flow from the project. I know that one thing on the Internet (and else ware) that does not work are "FREE" things. So, my idea is great, but unless I can make an income from it, then I need to carefully think about "what exactly I am doing" sharing my thoughts and going nowhere.
I remember several years ago the guy in Kansas or somewhere that locked himself in a room with a PC and was determined to live for a year in his condo. Well, there were a few others who were helping with managing his tech stuff, but that was it.
I still feel a bit lonely doing this, but I don't think I'll get a lot of "buzz" until I get beyond STEPS 24 or 25. Ironically, I have one plan to get beyond STEPS 19 or 20 and beyond. However, what's proving difficult is getting thru the next few.
However, I am also thinking about people who'll read this from countries where $100 might be a months income. Not a days or a few hours work.
So, I'll take these very few steps rather seriously and explore several possibilities and make a decision regarding where to go next.
I have also been very busy working my "day job" and I'll have to introduce those two project later --Perhaps, after Thanksgiving to all the readers.
Those two projects will be an integral part of my doubling efforts, in the 20 to 24 STEPS or so... However, the last STEPS are reserved solely for work on the Stock Market.
Anyway, I'll cover more about all of these aspects as I continue.
RECAP of my THOUGHTS:
1. I need to review the to do list.
2. I need to make plans for several new STEPS.
3. Over the weekend, I need to read all of my thoughts on the blog and make some notes regarding the discussion topics.
4. Update all the plans and add new ones.
Ok, I have a lot to do and execute. Off now and out for the weekend. Back on Monday...
