Daily checklist

[tinker0159]

Hi all,

So I am pretty new to all of this and as such I don’t have a whole lot to offer in terms of giving advice. I am however a relatively good organiser, so ro help myself keep on top of thing I am creating myself a daily checklist for money making activities. I am pretty much going to work through @katykicker post on how to make a thousand in a month. If anybody else has ideas of what should or could be included I’d love to hear them. I will of course be happy to share this with anyone who want to use it. As I like to make things pretty, I will be making my version pretty but I know not everyone feels like that so I’ll keep a plain one to give to those who prefer to keep it simple, or perhaps plan to print it.

Thanks in advance xx

As time goes on your checklist should get shorter and shorter as you replace lower paying work with higher paying stuff that is more deserving of your time

I used to do oodles of odds and sods when I first started out and now do only 2 things to earn money online (blogging / matched betting) so I think a checklist like this is ideal for someone starting out while they find their feet and sees what works for them

I do this too. I write a monthly, weekly and daily to-do list. Not just for earning money online though. My whole life is literally one long to-do list!

I have been known, on quite a regular basis, to add things to my todo list that I've already done just for the pleasure of scoring them off.

In my experience on top of monthly,weekly and daily tasks, it's important to also set goals for the next 6 months or the rest of the year in terms of what you want to achieve and then reverse engineer that into your to do lists.

Blogging is definitely on my to do list and I plan to publish by the end of the month

Agree 100%. I’m actually an acredited life coach so fully on board with the benefit of goals, my checklist idea is 1 part accountability and 1 part process

I looooooove ticking off a task it gives me a ready brek glow

I really need to get back into this habit - I actually find if I don't write it down I just don't get round to it.
Been meaning to log into mortgage account and an online isa for a fortnight over xmas and still haven't got round to it! Doh!

Haha, I'm guilty of this too, but I do find that it gives me a psychological boost!

Probably need to do more of the long-term goal setting though!

Finally logged on to those accounts today ! Just proves that when you write things down they get done!

yay, go for it

If I don't make a list the less pleasant tasks tend to slip my mind.

 

[Hezzy]

Wrote another (longer) list today - it has not been achieved but there is now a plan!
I did tick the first thing off the list - more planned for tomorrow

 

[Thrifty Mum]

This is a good idea. I write lists for everything but not this! So think I should start doing it so I don't forget anything

 

[Hezzy]

Trouble is I can’t divert from work during the day and sometimes it’s hard to keep focused after a long day. But it will be worth it!

 

[Hezzy]

Boom! Pounding through the list today. This definitely works for me.

 

[Fat Skint & Sweary]

I am definitely going to make a daily checklist... I have got assorted to-do lists, but a daily one is not something I have thought of before

 

[mum2one]

I have todo lists all over the place, use a day to view diary use just for surveys, so later throu the year less paying surveys etc will disappear x

 

[Hezzy]

I’ve tried to keep this up this week, really does help keep me focused and plough through stuff !
