You can overload yourself if you read everything!
I love new content. I find myself searching out new stuff on a daily basis. There is such great stuff out there now that I find it hard not to get sucked into the latest promotion someone is offering.
Now if the marketer does their job correctly, they will give away a ton of great free content. So really it’s worth watching these videos and reading the ebooks. Even if you don’t end up signing up for their class you can learn a lot.
The only problem I found was that I wasn’t focused on one topic. I was trying to follow everyone’s sales pitch. I was searching and signing up for every free series I could find.
I was doing too much and not getting any value from them.
I needed focus.
I decided that I would review my usual blog feeds and podcasts as normal but I would only focus on one promotional series at a time.
Granted some of these series close down and don’t reopen for a while. I always sign up for them so in the future I can be notified about the series opening again.
I found this new system to be great. I stay focused on the content at hand. Best of all I can really immerse myself in the program and do all the follow up work. I can even sign up for the class if I really liked it.
Focus turns into value. If you can focus on one promotional series you can really can a lot from it.
