More people every day are making a living online creating digital products.  Every time we turn around more people are sending out e-mails hawking another digital product.  Many of the e-mails are endorsing the same digital product.  How do the makers of these products keep coming up with their ideas and bringing them into creation is such a short time span?  The truth is, it is easier than most of us think it is.  Regardless of who you are, what type education you have or even how much free time you have – you too can create your own digital product.

But how do you go about creating your OWN digital product?  Available for instant download by those who wish to sign-up for your newsletter, download totally free, or even give you their hard earned cash?  How do you go about creating your own digital product in record time?

I am a fan of checklists.  A checklist will assist you in organizing the entire process.  The checklist can include goals and a time limit for each of your items to be checked off.  By doing this you are creating your own accountability system to ensure each step has been completed.  A checklist ensures success faster.

What should you include in your checklist?  Things such as market research and then niche research (drill down into the market of your choice) and then it’s on to keyword research.  By using the keyword research you can build your product around them – this will assist surfers to find your products easier. Writing – how long will you give yourself for the writing process?  Will you do it in one setting or over many?  How long per session?

By entering into product creation without time limits for your goals along the way, you are entering into a squishy quagmire or a slippery slope that leaves you open to never accomplishing your goal, forever spinning your wheels in process.  How can you know you are done, or even when you should be done?  With time limits and set goals along the way, you are able to track your progress.  Are you ahead, on target or behind.  Being able to measure your progress you can then track when you may need to change or step up your strategies.

Once your checklist is in place, it is time to start your research in your chosen area, market or niche.  Tools to use now include such things as Google Adwords Keywords, Word Tracker or Market Samurai to determine how many people are actually searching for the area, market and niche you would like to address.

When all is said and done, even if you have the best product to fill that area – if no one wants it, it will not be to your advantage to spend you time in this market, niche or area.  This will also show you how many others are competing for those readers, or dollars.  Done properly, this can save you a lot of wasted time.  Making sure your niche is a profitable one before spending too much time or your money can save you a lot of headache and heart ache in the long run.

Once the research has been done, it is time to start writing.  The best way to write for the Internet is to write as though you are talking to a friend.  As the saying goes “what is a stranger, but a friend you have not yet met”, and in this new market we are living in – people want to buy from those they know and trust .  No BS’ing those you wish to build a relationship with – even if that relationship is only one of seller and buyer … as those definitions are becoming more and more blurred everyday.

When you are writing, do just that, write.  Don’t edit.  Don’t re-read.  Don’t think too much.  Writing is for just that – To WRITE.  This will allow you to crank out a much higher amount of content in a much shorter mount of time (and no matter what – Content IS King).  As a matter of fact when one allows themselves to get into the flow of writing the quality of the content can actually be much greater than if one agonizes over word usage, comma placement or sentence structure.  PLUS the writing will sound more natural and free flowing.

Editing comes AFTER writing – not during the writing process.  Using a spell checking software will take care of this issue along the way – so if you see red underlined words – don’t sweat it and do NOT go back to correct it – that is for AFTER you are done getting your words on the paper or on the screen.

If writing is not your cup of tea – writing is a task you can outsource using many of the resources available online, however having a rough framework of what you want to have written will assist your product to be what you envision it to be.

When you sit down with your researched market and niche and have your list of keywords to use and then allow your self to get into the flow of writing.  You will have a pile of digital products to give away or sell in a very short amount of time.

SO – creating digitial products is a much easier task than many want you to believe it is and you too can have your own products to offer your readers, subscribers and buyers.

3. Day three of the 100 Day Challenge

I am going through the 100 Day Challenge and today is day 30.  Today’s lesson is about enforcing accountability.

I love the point of “What is the point of setting a goal or making a commitment if one has no intention of honoring it?”

Then all of the … but this happened, or I had no control over that, or any number of *excuses* and yes – even an “accident” can be called in and used as an *excuse* for why something didn’t get done or can’t be done.

If this is a one off item that hasn’t been able to be accomplished (yet) then what ever kept the commitment from being completed will be moved past and is a non issue … The clock on a goal, promise or commitment does not stop until the goal, promise or commitment has been completed or the goal, promise or commitment are ended.

If this is the track record of the person with the “accident” *excuse* then it is only another excuse as to why something is not done, or another promise must needs be broken, or {fill in the blank}  There comes a time when others know one’s word does not mean anything – but still the person who says they will, thinks they will at the time they make what ever commitment they agree to … We may *Lie* to others – but one can not lie to one’s self.

When we try to tell our self that we will – but we have not COMMITTED to Our Self that we WILL (if we have not yet decided to ENFORCE ACCOUNTABILITY) ~ it is another goal, promise, commitment not worth the breath or paper it was made on.

It all comes down to how we CHOOSE to be perceived.  It comes down to what it is we want to create.  It is our free will and choice to follow-through or to give up, quit, stop, or break promises given.  We must know what it is we are (or want) to do, then plan how it will be done, and then we must ACT on what we want, how we want it and keep going until we have completed our commitment.

We must first seek to commit to ourselves.  And Then ENFORCE ACCOUNTABILITY, Once we get over that hurdle, anything is possible.  Potential is limitless.

No matter where you are on the spectrum of accountable or total slacker who never accomplishes ANYTHING – YOU have the ability to reverse that trend and go from Super Human to slacker or from slacker to Super Human.  We all have that choice to make every time we make a commitment, set a goal, or give a promise.

It is up to YOU to be your Enforcer of Accountability.  Only YOU can create YOU to be the best you are able to be – anything else is just a temporary outside force.  Like the wind may blow a leaf miles into the sky and half way around the world – but once the wind is no more – the leaf will surely fall back to earth and decay.

I received an e-mail earlier today offering a $189 product for free.

Yes!!!  You heard right.  F.R.E.E (their words exactly, in the e-mail “giving away everything
he knows for F.R.E.E.” as a matter of fact oh, I do like this font … and anyway back to the reason for this blog posting …

Once I get to the download page it asks for mailing, e-mail and other information – including your CC info for a $1.00 processing fee   LOL!!!  digital is about as automatic a delivery system as there will ever be – and other than bandwidth and hosting – but space on the Internet is relatively cheap ~ so not usually an issue.

So – back to my question: When is free really free?  Even if it doesn’t cost you any money – how many sites offer “free” {fill in the blank~with chosen free digital thing} but to get the thing, we had to enter our e-mail address.  If one must give something to get something else – it isn’t free …

… and then I got a link to an awesome site:  DomainingMindMap I have been in sore need of just this type thing.  Even going so far as to have voiced that *I need for a mind map on domaining* I don’t know when the MindMap was completed and posted, but it came along exactly when I needed and was ready for it.

Great ~ it’s another day   Our community HOA (home owners association) meeting was last night – and I’m on the board – so, when ya gotta go… ya gotta go and after typing and sending out notes (waiting on go ahead to post to our website) Need to know how much of our *legal* issue to post, can be posted … etc.  I’d say freedom of information act, it should be available to all who ask for it.  Anyway, the judgments have always been in our favor and that’s why it has cost the resident so much, and will cost a lot more, but that’s been his choice the entire time.

Enough already – pay what you have cost this community and walk your dog on a lease when not on your property … period.  Oh, and don’t kill people.

And then we are back to the question of “When is free really free?”

I guess that is one of the good things about living in a deed restricted neighborhood.  We all have a set of rules we must follow and one of which is that dog’s must be leashed when not on ones own private property.  In this instance we are free to live where we choose to as long as we can live by the rules … or at least when told repeatedly by legal opinion (gosh that get’s expensive – huh?) … and then to offer what was offered you about six(?) seven(?) years ago … LOL!!! Really almost rolling on the floor laughing   Thank’s I needed that

I started this blog with the question of when is free really free?  I’d love to know your opinion … what do you think?

No related posts.

Today is the 14th day of the 100 Day Challenge.  It is also the third day in a row (I’m on a roll ) of waking by 5:30 am without the aid of my alarm clock.  I have it set for 5:31am just in case I don’t hit the goal of waking before, AND getting out of bed … but so far so good.

How do I do this?  My system is to *tell myself* how much time I have available to sleep when I go to bed and then I *tell myself* I must be awake and ready to start the day in *this many hours and minutes* … since beginning to do this a week ago, I’m finding falling asleep is actually quicker and I have been sleeping better.  If I wake during the night, a quick glance at the clock and *telling myself* how much longer I have available for sleep/rest/dreams (more on the dreaming in a moment) and back out I am.

Each night before bed I go over the goals I have long term, what I was to have accomplished in the day just done to be able to reach my goals and the things I plan to accomplish the next day.  I also *tell myself* what an awesome job I am doing and how wonderful and productive the next day will be.

But what if the day just done wasn’t awesome?  It is what it is.  As long as I do the best I am able to, in the time allotted, then it IS what it is, it IS awesome, and I am therefore AWESOME as well   What if the day just done I goofed off and didn’t get what I wanted to get done, done?  Being as I AM awesome, everyone deserves a break now and then – BUT *I tell myself* if I really want to achieve my goals I have set forth, then the next day I need to get back to the thrill of advancing on my goals.

BUT – what if the next day I slack again?  Then it is time to sit down and re-think my goals.  Are the goals I’ve set forth really what I want, or are they what I think I should to want?  Trying to achieve goals one really does not want is a lot like trying to paddle upstream and why would one want to do that, unless it is a life or death situation … and in that case, it probably something one would want very badly

So where am I going with today’s blog?  And what about the dreaming part?

Ah – the dreams … note to self begin faithfully writing in a dream journal … my dreams have taken on a mentoring (?) coaching (?) ATTA GIRL!!!  feel.

What do I mean by that? hmmm … let me think a moment – An example is a dream I had several nights ago:

I am white water rafting with several other people, it is exhilarating.  The river, the raft, all the people on board the raft (including myself and yes the river and raft had feelings in my dream) are all feeling euphoric and WHOOOO HOOOO!!!

Suddenly there is screaming from the bank of the river … a baby is in the water being carried down stream.  The baby is sure to drown.  The river has no mercy for those who do not bow to it’s power.  The water is going fast.  White water all around.  No one is moving.  The raft alerts all to hold on TIGHT.  Fear of what the water is capable of grab hold of me, the polished rocks bear testament to it’s true power as white water spray covers everything and everyone,  and then a calm blankets me and I know I can save the baby, I can do anything, all I have to do – is DO IT

… and I do.

So, where am I going with today’s blog?  By defining what it is we truly want and then breaking it down into the pieces that will make it happen – we are capable and ABLE to do ANY THING we truly desire to do.  But to make it happen – We MUST Act!

Do It Now

But that is our choice.

If we choose not to, then the accountability sits squarely on the shoulders of the one who chose not to act.

Oh My Goodness – time really does fly!

It is day three of the 100 day challenge and I am already behind. I have a lot of reasons (excuses) for why this is so, but I think the *reason* I am, is I have yet to “Pay The Price”. Not the price of the program ~ which is quite nominal, but the price of investing in myself enough to MAKE ME get up and DO … F-O-C-U-S.

Focus has always been an issue with me – I can be into something and a little flutter just out of my line of sight catches my eye and off I go in another direction … ooohhhh … what was that? So, at the end of the day I am left with *stuff* all over the place and I can’t remember what that *stuff* was for

I remember as a kid seeing George Carlin talking about *Stuff*:

It is time to organize and keep track of my stuff and focus on what I am to do … The 100 Day Challenge.  Accountability happens in the 100 Day Challenge.  It is time to act and begin to spread the happy of being blessed, but that is all choice we are free to choose.

For everything we do or do not do, we create.  We create rather or not we acknowledge we are creating.  Either we are creating *stuff* people want or *shit* no one does.  Even if want we create is *stuff* that can not be held, touched, or seen … we are creating … even if what we create is nothing more than a black hole.

… hmmm … the world is filled with enough black holes.  It’s time to create what people want (or the secret is …) Or creating things people WILL want.  Now – how to do this?  I feel it is in the 100 Day Challenge, so – back to work for me

It’s never too late to begin the 100 day challenge, and open to ones own potential.

It is my belief there are more of us saying the same thing in “in our own way” than ever before in all history combined together compared until right now, this moment.

Case in point In my travels today – one of the sites I landed upon is a blog, and this particular blog entry Motivation and Inspiration is exactly what I needed this day.

Below are the snippets I pulled from the video’s   Thank You

Les Brown

Put back as retarded in the fifth grade to the fourth, most of his schooling was done as though he was incapable of learning.  A chance meeting with a teacher changed the path he was on.

Someone else’s opinion of you does NOT need to be your reality.  The ONLY person whose opinion DOES matter is YOURS.  You are your best advocate or your worst enemy.

It’s possible.  When faced with *whatever* say IT’S POSSIBLE It’s Possible.

Most people are so negative they must say no seven times before they say yes.  Be ready, seek advancement of skills.  The only way to “Be Ready” is to seek advancement of ones skills when there is no need, and to be “hungry”

Pursue ones passion.  We must have passion in what one does.  Being able to follow ones passion, one becomes more thankful.

Thankfulness breeds gratitude.  Gratitude breeds success.  Find reasons for gratitude.

Nido Qubein

Change from within … the only one who REALLY wants change is the baby in wet diapers.

1) Excellence is a habit:  The wildly successful people form habits which “breed” success.

2) Personal responsibility:  No one can whine to me why THEY can’t achieve their dreams. As children our surroundings have a lot to do with we do and do not, however there comes a point in every human being’s life when THEY take responsibility for their own actions – even if that decision for their responsibility they give over to another to control.  The one “being controlled” is still the one who is choosing in every moment to BE controlled

Life is lived best when you set your self a goal.

3) Change – it is time to face our greatest fears.  Change does not come from, nor just for the sake of, cause improvement, but improvement ALWAYS comes from change.

Do not change for the sake of change, but change for that which will improve … once this vicious cycle has begun and others are taught how to do and then improve, abundance is ours ALL of ours

Napolean Hill

Personal Success – When Napolean Hill was a youth and he studied with Andrew Carnegie; he told Mr. Carnegie he (Napolean) should not be a leader due to his youth, lack of education, and lack of finances:

Andrew Carnegie: Science for success philosophy, taught Napolean one GREAT truth

A power that is greater than poverty, education, greater than all your fears and superstitions.

This profound power is that of the creator.  We have the complete and unchallengeable control over our mind.

Napolean Hill’s take away was:  What ever the mind can conceive and can believe, the mind can achieve. (and how is that, the mind finds a way

Marci Shimoff

1. Dare to be happy – happy attracts success.
2. Don’t believe everything you think.  I CAN, I CAN, I CAN
3. Use the power formula:  Intention, attention, no tension.
4. Let your passion lead – have the will to go with your gut.  Do what you love.  Continue-continue-persist.
5. Don’t catch the NO Cold ~ emotional contagion.  We become the average of the five people we spend most of time with.  That we associate with.  Spend time with people who are happy for no reason.

Zig Ziglar

By the time I got to Zig’s videos I was happily adlibbing along the way. Sorry

Can one help a negative Nellie?  Drama … problem seekers … want to be negative Nellie’s.  The people who complain the loudest are usually the ones who ARE the problem?  Negativity breeds negativity.  There is no other way to say it   It has gotten to the point me, myself will actually go about shaking it off the cycle of negativity MUST end.

Do IT … If someone isn’t willing to DO something first, nothing will be done.  You MUST do step number one, before you can do step number two.

The person WITH the problem – if THEY do not take that first step – no matter HOW bad the problems seem to be, or the person seems willing to change it – the person does NOT WANT to change the situation.

The eyes are the window to the soul.  Look deep into your eyes in the mirror and say your affirmatives into the eyes of you. Morning, Noon & Night … and if you get a chance to sneak an extra one or two in ~ WHOOOO HOOO !!!

Before bed – I love *~* because … and go through the list looking into and through the window of your soul (eyes)

In the morning before starting the day again look into the window of your soul and say your affirmative statements again   FEEL These as your truth with passion and excitement and just the first 24 hours will uncover miracles.

Everybody sells – EVERYBODY.  Unless one is a hermit and the only one they interact with is themselves (they are still selling them self How and why?  Who knows – but time is the most precious of commodity.

No one changes except YOU.  Self talk is the worst talk.  How to stop self talk … ooohhh good article to research and write

Seems kinda strange one of my domain names IS EverybodySells I love it when a plan comes together, even if I have been like Fry and been asleep for a thousand years

Gratitude – the healthiest of ALL human emotions is gratitude.

Today’s goals will deal with protection.  Password protection.

As many are aware, a hacker breached Twitter last week.  This hacker (I’ll call troll) was able to hack into Twitter by guessing a few questions to reset some passwords and off he (or she) was to gather LOTS of data (TechCrunch posted some of it on their website with confidential information blacked out)

Going to Google to search for password protection and how to ensure a password is not “crackable” one of the suggested queries IS password cracker choice …

This morning I read a tweet on Twitter: One does not TRY to be good. The *Good* ones allow their good to show.

How about bad?  Personally I feel humans ARE inherrently GOOD ~ and to *be bad* one must actively DECIDE to DO bad.  We are ALL accountable – even if the only one we must be accountable TO is us.  Accountability is something no one can ignore.    It is all in how we act and the actions we take.

As more begin to accept this fact as one of the supporting truth to the secret and the law of attraction, more will begin to understand and accept this truth as well.  Accountability, when is all said and done begins and ends with the individual, AND the individual choices made are what others have to choose how they will act and the actions they will take.

This does not mean if someone does you bad, you may do bad back to them … what it means is now how to act and or respond takes on deeper meaning.  Do you respond in kind and go back and forth as the pendulumn swings back and forth ever lower?  OR do you respond with love, kindness, and gentleness?  The one who has *done the wrong* may swing the pendulumn back to you-but you do not need to react the same as the *wrong* doer.

LOL!!!  I am rambling away here ~ but that is fine ~ one of my goals I am to unlock is that of writer but the editor has been busy editing before the letters make the page – SO – the editor has been given a vacation

WHOOO HOOO

So protection and choice.

A closed door used to mean do not come in, and if you need me knock and wait for the person on the other side to respond.  Now a locked, bolted, closed door means one just needs a bigger, badder cracker to get on the other side … ?

LOL!!!  This is a test ~ it is only a test of a budding Totally Awesome World Network (TAWN.com – I’m thinking this is the new mission) Tawn will be 12 come January 2010 and the year of 2012 Tawn will be 14 years old.

What can we will we do, knowing we are successful?  What a wonderfilled and wonderful place we live (every place has the potential to be the best or the worst – it is up to each of us and our perception) when we choose it to be.

Choice ~ Choose ~ every moment in every breath of every day of our life WE CHOOSE.

So many of us feel as though we have no choice, so we close the door, turn off the light and day by day, moment by moment we die.  This type death may take a very long time (50, 60, 90 + years) but CHOOSING to give YOUR choice away KILLS.  Letting others make YOUR decisions is DEADLY!

http://www.tampabay.com/news/publicsafety/crime/article990535.ece  This weekend – of CHILDREN MURDERED around the United States this little girl was murdered while she slept on the sofa in the living room of the home she lived.

From the article:  “Even Paris’ family wanted to do their part, asking that her death not be avenged upon the families of the suspects — that the cycle of retaliation that took the life of the girl known as “Princess Paris” finally end.

“We don’t want any of their families to go through what we did,” LaShawn Crawford, the victim’s cousin, told a gathering of TV cameras. “It stops here.”"

STOP IT !!! Stop the Violence!  STAND UP TO THOSE WHO DO NOT AGREE !!!  My target is on.  Open and glad heart knows justice WILL be done.  Those who were present when Princess Paris returned home – KNOW who they are.  Blood Suckers everywhere are imploding upon themselves.

Keep your eyes and heart open … follow the thankful breadcrumbs … they are gathering and we are blessed to be able to celebrate the lives of so many children we have lost this past week … do not let their leaving us go un-noticed.  Make their short lives count.

Do What Is Right … If you know some thing but say no thing … YOU are as guilty as the one who pulled the trigger, wielded the knife, lifted the hand – or applied the tape … we ARE ALL accountable what we DO or do NOT.

Be Kings ~ Choice ~ Choose ~ Truly — either you ARE part of the solution OR part of the problem.  Be Kings.

One of my 60 Day Experiments … blood suckers (no offense meant to medicinal leaches) imploding upon them selves quicker (before harming an other) … Gosh I’m evil  *Evie the evil Evelyn*

LOL!!!!  LAUGH OUT LOUD – Find your glad heart – and do what is right

It is NOT the situations one has to deal with that define one’s BEing – but rather how one re-acts / acts in any given situation.

I commented to friend (I hope she feels me as friend yesterday, that sadness is a good thing when used to identify what one does not want and then find that gladness glimmer (trust me it’s there) and relax, release, let go and know we are each meant for awesome wowness – but we HAVE to follow the good, glad, thankful, happy path NOT the murder, death, kill, I’m so pissed … LOL!!!!!

~ SHAKE IT OFF ~ icky poo-poo-caa-caa … Love / Hate … same coin, same rock, same situation … we choose is every thing we DO or do NOT do.  DO that which brings you joy, happiness, a glad heart … and never will you have to wonder … was I right?

LOL!!!

And then is the issue – if what one does that brings them joy brings another pain … is that right?  Can that even happen if one TRULY follows the glad heart?

Questions, Questions, Questions …. WHY ???  What a glorious thing this blessing of life is

Thank YOU   Yes – YOU reading this   Are you the one who started this reality?  Thank you   What Next?  WOW!!!

Gotta count out the days of my experiements … WOWsomeNESS peoples … Once tipping occurs (100th Monkey reference)  WOW!!!  Soon   Wash the fruit … wash the fruit … wash the fruit … share the sweetness
