I just stumbled Upon (quite literally) a cool site called MyOwnNicheSite.com. It is a site that does all the footwork in starting up a new website. you choose the type of site, and they do the rest including choosing the domain and setting it all up. The prices also seem to be quite reasonable. So anyone interested in creating their own site or company should take a look.

How many of you do the following:

-check e-mail first thing when you wake up and several times a day and last thing before you go to bed

-surf the internet into the late hours of the night or morning

-read a several blogs a day as well as current news

-multi-task everything that you do

-feel that the number of things you have to do constantly increases and you have less time than ever

As the amount of information continues to increase we are taking in more than ever. We spend most of our time glued to a little box and always feel that there is never enough time and we can’t get enough done.

There is a really simple solution that can give back a lot of your time and make you a happier person….STOP. Go cold turkey for a week and don’t check e-mail, blogs, or any online newsarticles. Don’t even surf the web. Do it for one week and you will realize that the world doesn’t end. It just gets better.

When you go back to reading, set allotted times. Only check e-mail twice a day, for an alotted time. Maybe 30 minutes each time you check. Take a look at your blogs. Do you really need to read them or do you just read them becuase you feel you have to. The best way to save time is to get rid of the things you don’t need.

Give it a try and let me know how it goes. Getting away from the technology and freeing up time is a great feeling. Now you just have to decide what you will do with the extra time.
