Your "One Thing" for 2016

Happy New Year, Warriors!

Just wanted to fire out a quick question on what your main goal is for 2016 and why you want it?

I've found that focusing on one thing at a time has been the biggest factor in my success over the last 12 months. I'm not a big earner by any means but managed to create multiple 5 figures in income last year just by picking one thing (product creation) and sticking to it.

In 2016 I'm going to focus on paid traffic, specifically mastering Facebook Ads, to add to my existing skills. Why? It will allow me to stop relying on affiliate traffic, build a loyal following, and raise my prices.

So what's yours? Where are you now, where do you want to be, and why? And what's your 'one thing' to focus on in the new year?

Have a great 2016!
Nathan

      My one over riding goal in 2016 is to choke Kurt.

      I'm going to choke him, then stab him, then kill him, then choke him some more, then kick him, and then embarrass him in public.

      If he still has that snarky look on his face, I'm going to grab his nose, and pull his ear, then shake him, and roll him around in the dirt. Eventually he'll tire of all this attention.....

      Oh, and I'll make him promise not to tell the cops. I'm not an idiot.

      And I will never waver from this one single goal....Nothing will take my attention away from.....oh, Look! A squirrel!

        The order of your list is a bit confusing. You seem to have the killing part a bit too early on the list. Once you off him, there is no need to make him promise not to tell the cops. Unless you think he has the power to get in touch with the closest psychic medium he can find who would tip them off. But even then it all comes back on you. He'll be flying around in his ghost sheet mocking you.

        I think you need to rethink this plan.

          No, I think it's the right order. Killing Kurt would not destroy his snarkiness and ability to insult me. The dark side of the force is strong in that one.

          Have you ever seen Kurt, and the Devil, in the same room together? Nobody has. There's my evidence. He is evil incarnate!

          So far, I've hired six hit men to kill Kurt. So far, all have failed...all have died.

          The seventh attempt will be made by a fat Ninja, wearing a bubble wrap Ninja outfit, that's way too small.

          They call me, "The Man With No Name...Circumference Doom"

          (Psst. Circomference Doom isn't my real name. It's just me, Claude Whitacre )

            Based on past conversations we have had here, it means that Kurt is Santa Clause too.

                  Seriously, my internet at work has been down for a few days, so I can only post in the evening. And.....I'm getting a lot of work done. I've written more than 30 pages of my next book, and written an outline for another. In three days, of no internet.

                  If it wasn't for e-mails, I'd just let it go.

                      Pretty easy one for me, work like a dog, on Graphic based products, and hope that l get noticed by the mods!

                      If that happens then 3000 to 7000k in a week should occur?

                      If that happens, then doing a post about making it online from a seaside 5 star hotel, while sipping a cocktail and watching the palm tree sway in the gentle breeze,....sigh!

                      If l pull that off once, (most do within a year) then it is outsourcing, and more products then quicker, big profit, and the cycle gets bigger and bigger!

                            True, we can't have 10 police cars and SWAT teams smashing down his glass doors, (don't ask my why, they could open it) and dragging him away, what would the church flock up the street think?
