Block out Distractions and Time Wasters – Block Yourself from Websites

Today I have taken it upon myself to cut out all of my biggest distractions. They hit me with a double or even triple whammy on my bottom line.

Let me explain it a bit. I estimate that I check the forums way more than 10 times a day and most likely spend 2-3 hours a day completely wasting my time. That is a lot of content I could be writing or other revenue making activities.

So how is it a double whammy? I was listening to the Poker Affiliate Listing Radio Show today and they had a speaker who owns Wicked Fire. This really opened up my eyes to distractions that are slowing me down.

Not only do I waste an unbelievable amount of time on forums they make me like everyone else. It has turned me into a yes man and takes away original thoughts. When I first came into the industry I had lots of original thoughts but they have slowly evaporated. Well maybe, it is just more of the fact that I igmore my original thoughts now.

I have now blocked myself from all gambling forums that I visit. I used Leech Block which is a Firefox add-on. It even allows you to stop visiting websites for certain periods of the day. So you don’t have to compeltely shut yourself off from them.

Block Yourself from Websites

One of the critical points that I got from the radio show is how unoriginal I am. I don’t offer anything unique and there are many other websites that do the same thing. I will report back with how things are on the up foe me.
