Hi! It's Tyrone from Tyroneshum.com and welcome
to the dedicated channel where I share with
you outsourcing and automation tips.
Well, it's the time of the month, the beginning
of April. Usually I review the previous months
of my monthly goals so I want to delve into
it, I want to talk to you a little bit about
what's happened for me in the month of March
and the main reason behind this is firstly
just for me to keep accountable to you.
If you've seen what I shared with you on the
first part of this year, in January I shared
with you that I was, have these goals setup
for the whole year and I'm just, every month
I'll update with you on how I'm progressing
with them.
So for this month, there's been a few been
that I've been doing. The most astound, or
the biggest difference for me for this month
was slight changing the goals and it's interesting
because most people usually just say yep,
I'm going to start with these goals at the
beginning of the year and try to aim to get
them accomplished by the end of the year.
But the problem with goal setting over a 12-month
period is that sometimes there might be changes
or there might be bumpy roads along the way.
And for me, that's what's happened in March.
There's a few things that I have to make some
changes in order for me to be able to achieve
what I wanted to achieve. I still look at
the global or the big perspective on what
I wanted to achieve by the end of this year
though obviously for these little milestones
or these little baby steps I'm taking, I've
had to make few changes slightly along the
way.
So what I did was I've been listening quite
a bit to Internet Business Mastery. If you
haven't heard of it, it's InternetBusinessMastery.com
and it's published by two guys by name of
Sterling and Jay. They've been around for
many, many years and it's quite a popular
and famous channel. Apparently ranked number
one on podcasting for Internet business, and
what I did was I just reviewed all of those
podcasts over and over again and there were
a lot of great things I've picked up from
it and I started to take onto some of those
because for me, I wanted to change a little
bit the way my whole business is operating.
I wanted to have a little bit more flexibility
and achieve a little bit more freedom in what
I was doing.
Not that I'm saying that I don't - I'm very,
very fortunate because I'm able to work from
home. I've got my own home office, I live
in a beautiful place that you know, people
would have to pay quite a bit to get. But
the thing is, is that I wanted to be able
to achieve a little bit different in terms
of what I wanted to achieve which is freedom
and to have that little bit more flexibility.
So what I did was I put together, I don't
have it right here with me. Ah here we go
I put together a little mind map. This is
the mind map, you can't really quite see it
but anyway, on the mind map it basically breaks
down everything that I wanted to achieve.
And what I learned from Sterling and James'
Internet Business Podcast was that Sterling
started with the end goal in mind and he worked
backwards on that. And that was what I didn't
really exactly do properly.
I actually had an end goal but the thing was
I didn't break it down the way I should have.
And the thing is, is that you've got to have
strong reasons behind it and my reasons for
these goals weren't strong enough.
So what I did was I sat down for probably
quite half a day, for about a few hours and
I started to actually writing down. You can
probably see my little notebook right here
and my little notebook shares with myself
at the beginning the WHYs. And I thought I'd
share that with you actually.
So if you want to think about this, this might
be excellent for your business as well. The
question I was asked and if you follow what
Internet Business Mastery talks about is to
define your major purpose. What will fulfill
me without the money? And one thing that or
two things that I wrote down, actually three
things I wrote down was these are three things
that will help me define who I am.
Firstly to help me succeed and see the success
impact many others around the world, the second
one is to live and experience different cultures
around the world in different countries. And
also too finally to experience and live the
life of fun and share with others. So I thought
I'd put this out there. Those are my three
definite major purposes in life and it really
broke down and really changed my mindset on
how I should be focusing on the goals because
sometimes you look at your goals and you go
it's great to be able to achieve that, and
it's great in terms of monetary, financial
freedom, family, friends, that's in your goals
but the thing is is how does that makes you
feel? And what happened if we do have all
that time and what happened if we do have
all that money in the world? What do you do?
So I broke it down and I just thought okay
I'm going to change a little bit and focus
on these things. And it made me realize whatever
I'm trying to accomplish now, if anyone asks
me for joint ventures or to do partnerships
or to launch any particular product, it's
going to fit in with that definite major purpose.
So that's one thing I did for this month was
to change and really, really focus down on
that main goal. And I hope that does help
you because I just learned so much from doing
that. And it's very simple. All you have to
do is write down that definite major purpose
and once you've done that then work back at
exactly how much you want to achieve or what
kind of goal you want to achieve to be able
to achieve the goals that you've set and then
break it back down. And then take steps backwards
to be able to achieve all that and break it
down to a monthly goal, down to a weekly goal
and those little tasks.
And that was one thing that I did. Now in
order to be able to achieve these goals, you've
got to keep yourself accountable. And that's
something that I have been doing but not very,
very well so what I have done was I even took
one step further. I went out and purchased
a diary. You know I'm going back the old-fashioned
way. This is just a 2011 diary, it's pretty
basic. I don't know if you can see that right
there. It's a nice diary and inside it has
all these A4 sheets which I found very, very
powerful and inside these A4 sheets there's
all these little lines. I can't tell if you
can see it anyway these little lines are basically
each day that I've got there. And inside each
day it's even got the times. It's even got
the times from say 8 o'clock all the way til
6 PM in the afternoon. And obviously there's
a reason why they had it there because it's
designed to be planner book but I've turned
it into a different thing is I've taken this
book and I've started to actually write down
exactly what I've been doing everyday, every
hour, every minute, etc.
And it really has opened up my eyes because
I obviously look at the things and go okay
some of the things that I've been doing are
not productive and some of the things are
very, very powerful and very strong. And it
really helps me keep accountable because if
I'm not doing the right thing or I'm not achieving
the goals that I want to achieve because these
tasks that I'm doing are not relevant, then
I need to you know obviously let go of them
and either not do them which is completely
eliminate it or have it outsourced which is
what I have been doing as well.
And the great thing is at the end of each
month just going through back into it and
basically highlight the things that were dollar
productive for you and block it out and make
sure that it's something that you are keeping
yourself accountable. Because once you've
changed your habits, it takes you at least
3 to 4 weeks for those habits, about 21 days
to change these habits. Once they're in place,
it makes it very, very easy for you to just
continually do it.
So that's what I did. I took a diary, wrote
down everything I do and I'm still doing it
and it's a great accountability tool and it
helps me monitor exactly what I'm doing and
review back exactly what it is.
All right so that's one of the major things
and that was very, very important for me to
share that with you because I hope that if
you're looking to do some goal planning for
this month, this is a really powerful tool.
All right so that was, that was what was happened
for this month as well for review goals. Now
coming back to the goals that I've been setting
out for this whole year was the niche site.
One of the niches that I, or I aim to have
10 niche sites and over this last month we've
been able to move these niche sites from placing
of currently I think there's 3 of them that's
placed on ranking on page 1 and we've moved
it up for around about 3 to 4 different spots.
Still bit of work to do but we are gradually
getting there.
And what I've also done with my team is we've
changed a little bit of our focus. Instead
of focusing on working say 10 at a time which
is a lot, what we've done is we're going to
focus on 3 niche sites only. 2 of them we're
just going to aim to get them to number one
first and obviously from there monetize it
and then I've taken another part of that chunk
to focus on growing my outsourcing business
which is exactly what I teach and what I do
and I wanted to take that one step further
for this next year.
Okay now on top of that, this month as well
for the month of March I also hired a programmer.
And a programmer was really something I needed
extra on top because the fact was I'm getting
quite a bit of work but not things completed
on time and I keep overwhelming obviously
my team with quite a lot of work so I decided
time to hire another programmer which is what
I did. And trained him in the last week or
so and now he's on board, doing whatever I
send off to him which are projects we've been
getting from our clients.
So that's, that's what's been happening there.
And also too, I've also spent quite a bit
of time for this month doing some local business
marketing. Really, really focus on just picking
up the phone and calling up locally to a lot
of people. Now this is not part of exactly
my plan for this year. I actually had wanted
to do something little bit different which
is just to focus on the niche sites and also
to focus on Mass Outsource Mastermind and
also few other projects that I have running.
But what I found was there are a few clients
that have contacted me and said Tyrone, there's
quite a bit of work that I've got here for
you which is to do with marketing and I found
that the local business that contacted me
wanted to do some work so I thought all right,
we'll do it.
It's quite easy for us because we've already
got the systems in place so therefore I pretty
much turned it on and continually doing it.
Now when I said cold calling, I basically
just picked up a few newspapers and I thought
I just give it a crack and see if I can find
some local businesses to take some more work
on and it wasn't that hard at all. I just
contacted them, spoke to them for a few minutes
and gradually I started to get bit more clients
coming in from there.
So that's another arm that I've put in and
it doesn't take me very much time to do per
week and it is actually helping with generating
some additional income, not passive income
but just additional income, consulting income
that really helps.
So that's what's happened there in terms of
that side of business. And then finally, something
that I'm really, really excited to share with
you as well, too is as I mentioned last month
I thought something wasn't possible or didn't
happen because I didn't get a reply back from
this coaching program or volunteer program
that I applied for. Now I said that I wanted
to give back to the community at the beginning
of the year and I've been applying to different
volunteer programs and interestingly enough,
at the beginning of last month I actually
got a reply back. So I got accepted to the
coaching program I applied for and now as
of the end of March, I'm starting to get training
to coach and become a coach to mentor and
teach a young student at a local community
club. So it's been an awesome, awesome experience
for me and it's amazing because not only am
I a local business around in the area that's
doing this but I found large companies like
Coca Cola, and those large companies have
sent people from their company to help establish
and also too, to give back in some sense by
giving them coaching and training. So it was
really good that I am really proud that I
managed to get into it and I've been really,
really honored to be able to volunteer and
help them. And I've met a lot of young kids
so far.
So for me I'm just happy that one of that
goal is on its way to be accomplished. I mean
I got it and now it's just over these next
22 weeks that I've got my student that I'm
going to work with that I'll be able to mentor,
coach and guide him through to succeed whatever
he wanted to do. So yeah I can't wait to share
the rest of the stories with you. So that
was the excellent news for this month.
And I guess, I'll put my little book down.
I guess I just want to share with you the
up and coming things of what's going to be
happening for the month of April as well.
Basically for March it's been very interesting
month as I said. I talked a lot about goal
setting for this month and I know I went quite
a bit in detail about it right now. But for
month of April it's basically taking a lot
of action because now that I've got these
things set in place, I do want to achieve
all these things that are laid out.
One thing that I want to do obviously is to
establish more passive income, to generate
a stronger passive income through the Mass
Outsource Mastermind and my goal by the end
of that month is to add on another extra 20
members to the coaching course and obviously
teach them and coach them through how to outsource
as well just the systems that I've been using.
And also too, to continually to build up another
side income which is coming from the local
consulting business which is what I've been
doing.
So that's pretty much what's been happening
of the whole thing and for the month of April
I'm really excited because it's a special
month. I'm going to be going away for one
week and then it's giong to be Easter and
everything hopefully if I've got everything
set in place, my team my outsourced team will
continue to work for me and generate income
for the business as well.
