Goal Setting

Published by Tom under Webmaster Advice

The beginning of a new year always brings forth the New Year’s resolutions. We make hardy gesture of grand feats that we will do in this year and often fail within days of the proclamation. Are you declaring to lose weight, get rich, pay off your house, or just be a better person? Having goals are important but you must have a plan to go with that goal. False goals equal failure so give up those once a year outburst and redesign the way you set goals.
The first step is to determine if the goal is possible. Then you need to see of it is probable. Is it possible to get rich in 2010? Yes, however, it not probable unless you have made some great investment and it is about to pay off. Otherwise, the goal is more of a dream. Dreams are good but goals need to be set in reality.
As a webmaster, goals are very important. Setting a goal for your business and a plan of action to see that goal come to completion. Creating a profitable blog is a goal but an undefined one. It better to determine what profitable means to you first then you know where you need to be. Profitable to one could mean $10 a week. To another blogger, $100 a week is profitable.
Clearly defined goals allows one to plan the steps necessary to reach that goal. This works in all aspects of your life from losing weight to building wealth, it is best to clearly define what your goal is and how to reach that goal.

Now instead of stating your resolutions for the new year, sit down and write out a clearly defined goal and the steps to reach it. Good luck and may you reach the top one baby step at a time.

Earn Cash on Short Task

Published by Tom under making money

Many people spend hours on the Internet and on their computer each day. If you are going to be Online to play, why not get paid to do simple things you do anyway. It is easy to earn money doing simple Work at Home  jobs.

In this post, I am reviewing a company called Short Task which provides those simple jobs that anybody can Work from Home  and earn a small amount of money for doing a little work from the computer.

In order to do the Short Task Review, I spent some time checking out their website and seeing what all the buzz was about. The site is quite interesting and offers a variety of jobs for someone to earn a few extra bucks a month. I checked out this site a while ago and the one drawback I found was that they had a payout minimum of $50. This has since changed to $10 which makes this site much more attractive for the person wanting to be paid quicker.

Basically, the site is set up in two sections. The first is called the solvers. These are the people who do the tasks or jobs and earn the money. The second is the seekers. These are the people who hire and pay for the tasks. It is listed on the main page that there are 41086 tasks, however, I could only find around 4000 listed ranging from $.03 to $2.00 per task. I am sure the tasks vary depending on how many people use the service.

Once the task is advertised, the solver accepts and completes the task. The seeker then must review and accept the task as complete. Once the job is done and accepted, money is placed in the solver’s account and builds up. The solver can request it be paid to their PayPal account once the $10 mark is reached.

Looking through the task, I found many that could completed in seconds and a solver can do as many tasks as they wish. The task range from posting jobs for companies on advertising websites to building links to bookmarking websites on Social sites like Digg. These are tasks that most of us do anyway so why not get paid to do it?

For the seeker, it is a cheap quick way to get task done without hiring employees and without the hassle of finding someone to do simple jobs that are a bit time consuming, but easy. It is a winner for either party.

This is a great site and can put a little extra cash in your pocket. Can it make you rich? No, however, it is not designed to replace your job. It is just another way to earn a little extra money while doing what many of us enjoy.
