Articles Are Gigantic Business Builders!
Each 'guru' appears to have his very own methodology and claims you should buy *his* technique and sign in for his software if you are going to succeed. The reality is, if you purchased each electronic book, attended each tele-seminar and acquired each distance learning course, you'd never make any cash because you'd be so tied up in knots trying to work out which way to go, you'd have difficulty picking a direction and getting started. Once you've got the plan, the 'tools' part falls into place, but tools without a plan are pointless. We could say you made a decision you wish to go into the house building business.
You buy some books and go to some courses. No instruction on what *matters* when it comes to building a home. Nothing about picking a good location, laying a solid foundation, nor conceptualizing the house properly ; merely a thinly masked sales spiel for an expensive hammer. Just 'Do what I assert, give me your money and everything will work out fine. Your suggestions will carry lots of weight too. After you begin writing articles for ezines, you may have a simple and cost free way to make yourself known. Unlike advertising, articles remain in public view for a while. You will be branding your company name and you could get more visitors, because at the base of each article, you may give authorization to others to make public these articles. The most vital query you want to ask about selling anything online or somewhere else isn't 'what' should I sell, but 'whom' should I sell to. On the other hand, when you've got a market in mind, coming up with product concepts is as simple as falling off a log. The person on the sidelines going round and round in circles trying to work out what to sell and the way to start. Or the person that is in the game, putting points up on the scoreboard, and having fun.

Working towards spring - on daffodils and quiltmaking
I have been working on the next - third - quilt in my Meditation series. This one is on daffodils. Spring cannot come soon enough for me. It has been unusually cold in Atlanta this year (read spoiled southerner) and I am so tired of dark, damp outside, bone-dry indoors, muddy paw prints all over my floors and cold.
I'm very pleased with the way this quilt is coming along. I want to enter it in a show with a due date later this month, and I'm starting to get a little concerned that I will create that last minute panicky rush for myself again. I really want to change that. The rush, the tension, adds nothing positive to my life or my art. So, as I so often do when trying to sort something out, I made a list of all the steps that still needed to be completed. I was stunned when I got to the end of this list. No wonder it takes me so long to make a quilt! No wonder I am always rushed and panicked at the end. No wonder FedEx and I are getting to be such close friends!
I decided to take the list backwards to the beginning of this piece to see if looking at the whole process will help me improve my time estimates and management. It certainly will. Here's the list:
Concept, research, design work in sketchbook, design work with decorated papers (photo above), color study/fabric selection and design, dyeing, transfer printing, design & cut stamp(s), surface design, fusing sheer overlays, starch & iron fabrics, cut and sort fabrics, piecing and assembly, layer and baste, quilting research & design, thread selection, stitch samples, quilting, square and trim, apply facings, block, make sleeve, photography, make label. As I'm writing, I thought of a few more - cut slat(s), prepare storage/shipping container, complete and mail show application. Ouch!!!
That is a lot of steps, 27 in all, but I wouldn't eliminate any. What I am going to do with this list is create a work schedule and set some milestones, leaving myself some breathing room at the end. And of course, change my time management and goal setting going forward. I see this as another rung on the ladder of my work process, all of which will, I'm positive, lead to more satisfying work for me, and more control over the results. To synthesize what I've learned about myself: hit-or-miss approach = hit-or-miss results!
I'm curious, how do you work towards deadlines? Do you plan or fly free, or are you somewhere in the middle? Striving for something different?
