I'll have a booth at the NY Times Healthfair on 6/2. Found out today. I'm more interested in meeting someone to help me get press than actually making a sale but lol I want both!

Ecommerce - I'm failing on my goal --
I need to restart. I've done 0 work after the initial manufacturing of my goods and listing them on Amazon. I'm managing a few product sales a month and basically breaking even...
It's funny that as I write this I get an email that another unit has sold and I see I have a 5 star product rating.
Anyhow --
I realize a few flaws in my approach.
-I'm unorganized with my time.
-I emotionally jump into things and don't do the proper research into how to get started wasting time and money.
I realize something I need changed.
-I'm a slave in my current business whether it produces 6 fig sales or not I'm selling my time. I can't do this forever.
--
I started breaking my daily to-do list into time allotted slots. I'm going to see if this increases my productivity. I got a lot done today. Most tasks were small but the idea is to allow them to equal big accomplishments each week/month instead of the current method of waiting and cramming tasks into all day marathons.

I'm going to give myself a little more me time. I'm on constant overdrive and do not feel it's always healthy.

So I have a few tasks this year that I need to do.
1 - Build my fitness business so it becomes its own organism (this is going to take longer than a year).
2 - Become less financially dependent on my fitness business and revamp ecommerce.
Goals
1-2 months research and solidify product/ideas
2-6 MVP, build a mock-up site, while figuring out the best course of action for manufacturing/drop shipping etc.
6-12 - solidly Adwords campaigns, marketing approach, Make a sale.
12+ make more sales repeat the process until it's perfected, grow and launch new when it's working on its own.

I've been taking the same approach I use in weight lifting to instill confidence.
I've been through some ruts throughout my fitness training.
The thing that's always brought me back to higher levels and a rejuvenated attitude is starting of on a routine that allows me to win every time I'm in the gym. I ease off the gas of self pressure that wants me to be the best right now. You need time to become the best and a lot of process!
That's a problem for me. I'm too self critical and hard that it causes me to be irrational at times with my decision making.
I need to focus on the small wins to instill confidence for the big ones.
Winning and failing is often a perception. Depending on how you see things definitely alters your success.
Onward and upward.
