30DC Cross Training
No Comments
I got off to a good start this morning, but I just had too many things on my list to do today. I did get two blogs up. But only one has decent content on it. And I have some footage of video for the other one – but that will take some editing.
I got my unforgettable five done with this post. Tomorrow I start my new contract job. So I’ll start earning money again. This will make my family very happy.
So I’m off to bed. I seem to be much more of a morning person – I’m so foggy headed right now. How about you? When do you think the clearest? When should your best work be done?

Well here’s the end of day 6 and I’ve fallen off my plan. I only completed 20% of my plans. I got thrown off by having my swimming exercise canceled and I didn’t get thing rectified before going to bed. And today was just crazy trying to do the 30dc and getting a blog together. Here we are at the end of day 6 and not much is completed.
There were some things accomplished today, however. For one thing, I have confirmed that I do have a work contract that starts up soon. So I will start getting paid again. Getting paid is a good plan to tide me over until I get my Internet empire rolling 😉
And I did go to a 30dc meet-up tonight. It went very well and I think there will be opportunities to help each other from meeting.
See you on day 7.

OK, Day 4 of the Thirty Day Challenge is well done and over. I’ve done my “unforgettable five” as soon as I complete this post. We tarried long after the swimming lesson and I didn’t get to see if my niche competition got critiqued.
I have to say that I’m a bit worried about that. After watching other people getting analyzed I realized that maybe I’m hosed because of page rank. Here have a look for yourself…
My biggest concern is that all the top six are page ranked at 3, 4, or 5. But it doesn’t look like there’s been much optimization until you get to number 6.
I would sure appreciate any seasoned appraisal. You can catch me here, or on FriendFeed, Twitter, or just about anything else as MyklK (On the 30DC I’m just Mykl).
I still need to get over to the 30DC Cross Training room for some accountability. But I’m running out of steam for tonight. I’ll just Tweet about this post and call it a night.

Doing something practical for exercise
I’m trying to consistently exercise through the month of August to get a good habit started. Since I’m taking swimming lessons with my kids – I’m counting a few extra laps as my exercise for those days. And I got tired of messing with a lawn mower that I’m not capable of fixing or maintaining, so I bought an old timey drum blade push mower. No gas, just muscle power. Is that a work out or what!
How’s the Thirty Day Challenge coming along?
I have been keeping up so far with the 30DC. I’ve tried a few niches. I’ll be interested in submitting mine for critique. I just have to keep my eyes peeled for the instructions. There is a new analysis tool for this year called the Market Samurai. It’s a little complicated, and it’s slow gathering results. Of course it’s doing a lot of queries under the covers, so it might be understandable that it’s going to take a little time to process.
I’m hopeful that this year will be more productive for me than last year. I’d sure like to quiet the nay sayers… Both internal and external.
In other news
I am unemployed until at least Wednesday and maybe until next week. I have to wait and see if the company I made a proposal to actually decides to take up the offer. They said they would, but I don’t count on anything until I have a signed contract.
Well, this completes my ‘unforgettable five’ activities for today! Yahoo! 3 days in a row. See you again tomorrow.

Wow, I’m working late trying to master the Samurai and day 2 just slipped by. It’s the third by my clock. So does this still count for the 2nd? I’m counting it because I’m tired and I’ll write more tomorrow.
MSamurai has me overwhelmed – still not striking gold, but I’m still prospecting. g’night.
