The next thing you need to do as far as getting your head right and owning your plan, which is the second piece of the strategy, is you’ve got to know what you’re doing.
I’ll submit to you that there are anywhere between 10 and 100 real legitimate ways to make money online. As a part time internet entrepreneur you’ve simply just got to pick one. I don’t mean pick seven, I mean pick one. You need to pick a business model and you need to execute around that business model.
For example, Sterling and Jay teach an excellent proven business model at the Internet Business Mastery Academy, but there are other ones I like too. No matter what you choose for your business model, you need to work through that and pick a single business model to execute on as a part time internet entrepreneur.
Once you pick it you need to be single minded and task oriented.
In future articles, I'll be talking a lot about how to handle the task oriented side of things. For internet entrepreneurs that are working part time, I strongly recommend some sort of project focused next action driven plan, like the Getting Things Done program, GTD from David Allen.
If that’s a little too dense for you, and quite frankly, it’s a little too dense for me, there is an excellent ebook out there called ZTD, (Zen To Done). Take a look at that. That’s kind of a short version of GTD. Those are both great resources.
No matter what, you need to have a good task management system so you can stay focused and single minded.

This is where I always get LOST, I’m way too easily distracted, I like shiny objects, and I don’t feel productive unless I’m working on at least two projects at any given moment.
A successful artist once offered some advice I’ve found very helpful. He said it’s great making your paintings and stuff – in other words, yes, be an artist – but if you come up with an idea for the world’s greatest shower curtain, go for it.
