5 Questions I Recently Asked Myself…

So, yes…it has almost been a month since I have posted here! :0 And yes, I was somewhat surprised myself that it has been that long because we all know that consistent blogging is key to a successful blog. However, that being said, let’s just say I took a minor “break” from affiliate marketing and concentrated on all aspects of my ebay business, product creation (both of which will really take off in2010!), and social media.

Affiliate marketing is a passion for me, always has been. But recently, a site/program that I promoted and am earning monthly recurring commissions from still has not paid out. Going on 5 months now and to date I haven’t received a dime. I did get in touch (finally) with the owner and was told that I’d be paid in 1-2 days… hmmm, that was last month.

This plus some other things I had going on really got me thinking… should I take a complete break from affiliate marketing? is all the hard work really worth it? should I concentrate 100% on creating my own products? And you know, when all was said and done… I love affiliate marketing! I know that having my own product is even better and I’m working on that, and I do have other income streams in place, but affiliate marketing just rocks for me. So no, I won’t be putting affiliate marketing on the back burner anytime soon.

During the week between Christmas and New Years, I did a lot of thinking and reflecting, and asked myself these questions, came up with a plan of action, and now I’m going to take on 2010 like there’s no tomorrow!

What is it that I really want?

Am I happy doing what I’m doing now?

What changes do I need to make (if any) to get to what I really want?

What motivates me?

What makes me tick?

Answering these questions helped me formulate a plan of action for my online businesses and gave me some new personal insight as well. Take the time, really think about things and come up with your plan for success in 2010!
