Sorting out all the details

A week flies by so quickly. I feel like I'm at my computer 24/7, yet this isn't quite true. I do find time to put my head on a pillow. I don't say sleep because of the insomnia.

Suddenly an entire new world has opened up right in front of me. A secret world of Internet riches, triggered by one simple word - Information.

An idea springs into life and then takes on a life of its own as I develop it into something real, something tangible, something mind-blowing (I hope). An irresistible offer, or two or three on a subject I know and understand, marketing websites and link marketing for websites.

But like all things that take on a life of their own, they keep on growing and growing. Problems arise that need to be overcome, an auto-responder being one before I found that GetResponse.com has a free one if you hunt for it. Or that my mail-server isn't recognised as valid by them? Too much information is a major problem. Which means, how do I do what I need to do and find the information I need at this moment without becoming distracted, redirected and caught up in overload? I write down what I'm doing on a good ole' piece of paper in front of me.

I take pills that affect my memory and I can completely forget something in ten seconds, so the notes on paper are totally invaluable. Paper and pen in a high tech world work best. If I write things into Textpad (my favourite text editor) and save the file I can immediately forget where I put it and what it was called.

I almost have my website ready, just a few more things to do. Like providing download links for products and putting in the auto-responder code. And rewriting my front page after I listened to an interview by Brett McFall, the man who started this whole idea with his free seminar and his book ">How to Make Money While You Sleep: How to Start, Promote and Profit From an Online Business.

Now as I am just hours (10 maybe) away from getting it all going live, I have to go to hospital (you do not want to know the hideous procedure I have agreed to have done, LOL) for a few days and they tell me I'll feel like complete crap for a week or two afterwards. Hopefully they are wrong and my self hypnosis will work!
