…It can be hard to get to any mar-ke-ting but I somehow, some way keep avoiding time wasting crap like every single day.
Ok, so my rendition might not make it on a Snoop tribute album but..
Why do people love drama so much? I admit I get suckered into reading a thread or blog post every once in a while but some of this crap is getting a little ridiculous. I think a little affiliate news is important to keep up with, who is doing what, etc. but just get a sense of it and move on. Do you really need to spend an hour reading pages and pages of drama on internet marketing forums to help you make more money? If you like that sort of thing fine but I would rather spend that hour setting up new campaigns, or working then spend my goof off time AWAY from the computer.
I know a LOT of affiliates who spend hours reading forums & blogs. There is some great info out there but do you really care who in the affiliate world is mad at who, thee secret dirt behind somebody, or whatever?
If you can't resist reading that stuff fine…just use Egg Timer and keep it to a minimum.
the only reason this guy cakes has a shit load of drama is cause he starts a shit load of drama
karma
Dave, you’re preaching to the choir here. I’ve really cut back on the amount of forum reading I do and try to keep it focused to what I’m working on. If I catch myself reading too much I just ask myself it’s relevant to what I’m doing right now. If it’s not then I just close the page, end of.
It helps to keep forum reading until the end of the day but you’ve got to be disciplined.
This post wasn’t by any chance inspired by the 12 pages and counting LP lockdown thread on Wickedfire… was it?
