I finally finished my Shiny Object Reset webpage and workbook. But somewhere along the way, I decided to create a plugin for myself as well! LOL! I wanted something that could actually help me stay focused and avoid getting distracted by all the shiny new things popping up everywhere.
I'll let you know whether it works once I'm finished! 🩷😅
One thing I can tell you, though, is that I really wish I had been able to keep my focus back in the 90s and 2000s! Imagine what I could have accomplished! LOL!
Anyway, I managed to focus long enough to finish the Affiliate Action Today website, which I mentioned earlier, along with the workbook.
But here's something I haven't mentioned: I've also joined quite a few Skool communities to learn more about using AI for business.
And honestly? Just like everything else, there's a learning curve!
One thing I've discovered, though, is that AI has the potential to make certain tasks a whole lot easier and reduce the workload. That's actually what I'm using it for when launching my colouring book store, which is my second affiliate marketing project.
I've already published my colouring book through Amazon KDP (Kindle Direct Publishing), but I'm also working on setting up a shop using Payhip and Groove (now Scale.gg).
Why those two?
Well, Payhip has a free plan, and I previously purchased a lifetime membership with Groove, so I want to put that investment to good use! The only problem is that I'm finding Groove a little challenging to navigate, so I'm building the shop there on the side while I work on the other things.
So, yes, I completely understand the concerns about AI and how difficult it can be to distinguish what's real and what's not.
But I can assure you of one thing: I'm real! LOL! 😂
If anything, I sometimes feel like I'm the slowest person in the room when it comes to keeping up with the rapid pace of technology, AI and affiliate marketing.
But here's the thing: I genuinely want to build something useful. Something that people can actually benefit from, rather than just putting another product or website out there for the sake of it.
The internet, technology and affiliate marketing are moving SO fast that keeping up can feel like a full-time job in itself!
But I still believe there's plenty of potential out there. You just have to find your direction, keep learning and, hopefully, stay focused long enough to finish what you started!
And trust me, that last part is a work in progress! 🤣🩷
