Keep my productivity up is something I’ve been having real issues with recently, and staying focused is not easy for me. Sometimes it’s getting carried away on IRC / AIM and Wickedfire, or whatever but I haven’t been getting work done.

There’s 2 things that have helped me get on track a lot recently, and neither of them are Aderall (which i don’t have :P ). Those 2 things are simply a whiteboard and a notepad.

I use the whiteboard for writing things down I need to do for example a new campaign or new traffic source. Then on the notepad I’d break down what I need to do within that, to get what’s on the whiteboard complete (if that makes sense?).

If your having trouble focusing on work or are just to lazy, you have to realise the competition and money waits for no one. While your being lazy, your competitor is testing, building campaigns and optimizing away making more and more money. Oh and if your problem is there’s to much work or you don’t enjoy what your doing then get the fuck out of this industry – it’s not for you :) .

I’ve found that if I suddenly have an idea, i’ll write it down and later in the day or when ever i’ll see it again and get a chance to follow up, rather than relying on myself to remember it and get it done. Useful stuff for buisness. The total cost of both these are under $100 too, so it’s worth a shot if you were having the same problems as me.

Good tips – I’ve been using something called mylifeorganized which is like a souped up whiteboard & is pretty good for organizing and archiving stuff. Also carry around the notepads but that is just until I get hope to put everything in the system
