==> If you get to Friday evening each week and wonder if you're any better off than you were Monday...
this is probably why.
You most likely woke up Monday and had absolutely no idea how to start your week.
So you might have thought like this.
"I need to write a blog post sometime this week. I should do it today and put it in the "done" column."
But you didn't do it, did you?
Maybe you decided to check out Yahoo News to see what happened over the weekend while you were binge watching 2 seasons of the Walking Dead.
Just for a few minutes.
2 hours later, you were ready for a break from the computer.
A "work" break.
So, you closed Yahoo News and went shopping to stock the fridge.
After lunch, you opened your computer and stared at it.
"What should I do now? I really want to start making money online, so I'll do a few Google searches for... let's see... how about this"
and you typed "make money online" into your browser.
Your deadline to publish that blog post was Friday morning so, now that it's almost 8pm Friday night... maybe it's about time to get started.
White page.
"What should I write about?"
===>
Does this sound familiar?
I know I've done it.
I don't do it any more, but there was a time when I did it a lot.
Things have changed for me.
If you get stuck like this, things can change for you, too.
It begins here.
KNOW what you'll be doing with your week before your week even starts.
That's the whole purpose of this Friday Focus newsletter... to remind you to write out a Friday "blueprint" that you'll work from in the following week.
You can read below for more about the Friday blueprint if you don't know what I'm talking about.
Then, there's this.
Know that when you do something, like write a blog post, it has a purpose.
In some way, that blog post will help bring in business.
Subscribers to your list, buyers for your affiliate program... something.
If you're not understanding how that simple little blog post will position you to earning some profits...
you're probably not too motivated to write that blog post.
When you clearly...
clearly see...
HOW that blog post is just one little piece in your "online biz" puzzle...
You won't want to be peeking at Yahoo News, Facebook or anything else.
At least, not until you've got that blog post done and ready to make you some income.
Now, that's exciting.
When you make ten bucks from your sales funnel, you're excited.
When you multiply that 10 times... every single day... it's really exciting.
Partly because you've just begun.
===>
This is possible.
Very possible.
If you can clearly focus every single Friday on how all the things you are going to do next week will give you a chance to improve your earnings, you can make it happen.
And you can make it happen very very big.
Once you get the tiniest success in your online business, it gets so easy to compound it... to "scale" it 10x - 100x and much more.
But it starts here.
It starts with focus.
Consistently focusing on achieving exactly what you want.
Consistent means doing it on a regular basis.
Check back here every Friday for your Friday focus and make it all happen.
Now, time to jot down your Friday Blueprint if you haven't yet.
==>
If you're new, here, then you can read about this Friday Focus Group and my Friday Blueprint concept below.
If you're a regular to this group, you know that I love to hear the things that you're involved in.
And I'm always interested to see what your Blueprint for this week looks like.

Tell me about it.
I look forward to hearing from you.

-Donna & David- Whirlwind Success ================== >> If you're new to my newsletter...
Here's what my "Friday Focus Group" is all about.
This was the first email I sent out introducing folks to it. ================== >>
This is not a "group" in the official sense.
I didn't wake up and say "I think I'll start this thing..."
But I've been talking some lately about how I use Friday as a focus day.
I create my Blueprint for the next week each Friday.
Then, starting Monday morning, I know exactly what I've got to do in order to accomplish my goals for the week.
On a larger scale, I see my weekly goals as baby steps toward achieving my "Big Goal".
I usually set a "Big Goal" as a 6 to 8 week goal that I really want to reach.
That, of course, is a milestone toward achieving my big, big, big goal... operating a successful online business.
Now, to operate a successful online business, it is necessary to constantly strive to reach my "Big Goals."
So you see, it's all too big to do unless I put all my focus on one week at a time.
That's what my Friday Blueprint is for.
It keeps me from developing a "wandering eye" or "jumping the fence" for each new thing that looks intriguing or easy.
==> Here's the thing.
I'm rambling.
Let me stop and tell you what this email is about.
Lots of folks who are on my email list = thanks for your loyalty :) =
Lot of folks on my list have been replying to my emails to tell me about their goals and their own "Friday Blueprints."
Then they follow up and tell me how it's progressing.
A few people have been doing this every single Friday.
They tell me their goals for the next week one Friday.
The next Friday, they report back and tell me how they did, plus... what their new Blueprint is for the next week.
So they've kind of established an accountability relationship with me right from this email list.
And I've seen them grow through doing this, plus, I give some feedback from time to time.
(Hey! I usually charge for my email coaching, so you get a little freebie here for being my loyal sub, heehee)
That's it, really.
You wanna play?
Just reply to any of my Friday emails and tell me what your Blueprint is for next week.
Then, make yourself accountable to me (and to yourself)... by letting me know how you made out with it, where you slacked off, where you exceeded your goals, etc.
Nothing formal.
Nothing to sign up for.
Just do it!
I'll be happy to be your support and accountability partner.
Send me your Friday Blueprint right now.
I love my weekend reading :) Talk soon,
Donna
