5 days - where has the time gone?

Looking after the children and a family day out to the Air Fair (with a first time helicopter ride, which was fun, and not scary at all).

Anyway I have plans for the websites, now I just have to carry through with them.

Till next time,

I now sit down to work for one hour at a time. During that time I have to work through the goals I set myself earlier in the day. And I'm starting to get tough on myself, no stopping for a coffee break and no flicking another screen up and doing a "quick 5 minute check" of the forums and job sites (which used to turn into an hour or two). I never realised how much I did that until I made myself concentrate on one thing. Surely I can't be the only one that has 7 browser screens up.

Anyway, I needed to know about photos, where can I get free photos, and what should I be looking for to tell me I can use them for my websites, i.e. commercial use. Did an hour researching what I should be looking for (in a nutshell - free royalty free photos that can be used unrestricted for commercial use), wrote an article about it either for my own use or otherwise, and then went through photo websites to find the best. Some were just snapshot quality but the best I found was http://sxc.hu/. Over 100k professional quality photos, mostly available for commercial use (you have to check under the photos to see) but best of all they're free.

Found some pics for 2 of my websites.

I don't know why I'm writing all this. Probably to justify that I've done something today so far, at least I know where to get good photos for my websites quickly now.

Anyway the next step is to put more content and photos on sleep website, write an article and submit to article site. Then for another site write up review of survey sites and find affiliate links for them.

'til next time,

A 30 day blog to motivate myself. The challenge I've set myself is to start earning an income online within 30 days or give up and do something else instead. No going back. Success means maybe the freedom of working at home part time in the future and time with the kids. Failure means going out to a job (if I could find one - there are no real jobs here that fit around childcare) and rarely seeing the children. Or worse having to go on benefits, broke. And no more internet cos thats going if i fail!

So thats the carrot and the stick, I need to get motivated.
