Why Public Declarations Of Intent Can Be Dangerous

Well, isn't this just an object lesson in 'focus' – or the lack of it – and the power of obligations.

You might notice that it is some time since my last post.  So this project of building a money making blog is doomed to failure for the moment due to lack of frequency.

How did this come about when I set out with such good intentions?

The answer, as always, is another project that has taken priority over at www.SmartMarketingWarriors.com where I am working with a number of friends to build a membership site providing internet marketing training.

So I haven't got a simple problem of too many projects and not enough time that is easily solved by some self discipline and the prioritising of one over the others.  No, in this case there is the added burden of obligation to my friends.

It is a great motivator, obligation.  For another example you have only to look at the mastermind principle of accountability.

Making a declaration of your intentions and goals to your mastermind colleagues makes you accountable to them for your results.  It might only be the potential for embarassment when you fail to deliver on your intentions that drives you to reach your goals but it will drive you all the same.

Anyway, the point is that my public declaration of intent to turn this into a money making blog is on hold for the time being while I work away on www.SmartMarketingWarriors.com.  However, NicheMarketBlogger.com will continue to be home to my thoughts and tips on WordPress and blogging and I hope you find it useful.
