Setting realistic goals
I don’t know about you but I have a bad habit of setting crazy goals. Just this morning I wrote down everything I wanted to do by the end of the month and it was enough to make my head explode. For example, I put down that I wanted to finish two sites. Based on what I have in my head, that would be over 200 new web pages. With about 10 days left in the month, that comes to about 20 pages a day. *bangs head on desk*
This mountain of work pretty much put a damper on the rest of the day. How the hell would I be able to come up with 20 content rich, original pages a day? The simple answer is that I can’t – this is one goal that just isn’t realistic.
Instead, I decided to make scaled down versions of the site and then add to them throughout June. This way they would be functional sooner PLUS I’d be able to add content regularly and Google loves it when you do that. It’s not the idea solution but it will get the job done.
