SMART Goals

"Reduce your plan to writing. The moment you complete this, you will have definitely given concrete form to the intangible desire." Napoleon Hill

An easy way to "reduce your plan to writing" is to write down your goals. Specific goals are easier to accomplish than vague general ones. SMART goals are specific, measurable, attainable, realistic and they have a time component, a deadline.

You can attain most any goal you set when you plan your steps wisely and establish a time frame that allows you to carry out those steps. Listing your goals opens your mind to possibilities and allows you to see the many opportunities available to help you reach your desires.

Specific - A specific goal has a much greater chance of being accomplished than a general goal. A goal that is specific answers the who, what and when questions, and is stated in present tense. For example, "I am receiving X number of dollars per day" is a much more specific goal than "I want to make more money."

Measurable - Set guidelines so you will know how you are progressing. Achieving small steps on the way to your goal will keep you motivated. When you track your progress, you will be much more likely to stay on task, and reach your goal.

Measurable goals answer questions such as......How much? How many? How will I know when it is accomplished?

Attainable - “If you can imagine it, you can achieve it; if you can dream it, you can become it.” William Arthur Ward
The most important question is " how can I get there from here"...
Start where you are to determine the steps you will have to take to achieve your goal. What actions, education, skills, traits, etc., do you need? If you don't have them now, how will you get them, how long will it take and are you willing to put forth the effort needed to get closer to your goal?

Realistic - To be realistic, a goal must be within the realm of possibility and you should truly believe you can actually achieve it. A worthy goal should be a stretch for you to accomplish, but an exciting stretch. A high goal is frequently easier to reach than a low one because a low goal doesn't have the same motivational factor.

Timely - A goal should have a time limit. Without a time limit, the goal is just a dream. If you want to earn $100, when do you want to receive it? "Someday" won't work. But if you anchor it within a time frame, "by April 1st", then you've set your unconscious mind into motion to begin working on the goal.

T can also stand for Tangible - A goal is tangible when you can experience it with one of the senses, that is, taste, touch, smell, sight or hearing. When your goal is tangible you have a better chance of making it specific and measurable and thus attainable.

Don't be afraid to set lofty goals....Set smaller goals as stepping stones along the way. Accomplishing the small goals will keep you motivated to reach the larger goals and completing the small steps gives you confidence to keep going...Success really does breed success.

If one of your goals is to be your own boss or make some extra cash online, I hope you will set your personal goals using the SMART goal guidelines, and then use the successful steps I have taken in "Getting Started with PTCs" to help you start earning real cash income online.

Accomplishments in the Last Two Months

Don't let the fear of the time it will take to accomplish something stand in the way of your doing it. The time will pass anyway; we might just as well put that passing time to the best possible use. ~Earl Nightingale

Clickin' for Pennies may seem like it will take forever to get anywhere, but as the quote says, "the time will pass anyway;" and you only need to have a few minutes per site to accomplish great things.

I spend about one hour per day clicking ads on eight different sites. The sites I am currently using are Onbux, Good Karma Clicks, Infinitybux, Vynbux, VC Bux, Globobux, Schnaapklicks, and GetBuxToday.

My criteria is VERY scientific....I like the way the site looks and/or the way it functions... :o)

So, in two months I have gone from zero to....

Onbux - 1 direct referral and 670 rented referrals....one payout of $12.79, one pending payout for $36.58....They are manually processing payments at the moment.

Good Karma Clicks - 13 direct referrals and 189 rented referrals.....3 payouts totaling $99.83

InfinityBux - 61 direct referrals.....3 payouts totaling $12.31

Vynbux - 9 direct referrals and 175 rented referrals....one cash out of $8.38

VC Bux - 3 rented referrals

Schnaapklicks - 10 direct referrals and one cash out of 5.03

There have been ups and downs these last two months...

On the upside, it is exciting to see the growth in the size of the endeavor, while watching the pennies turn into dollars.

On the downside, there have been difficulties I don't begin to understand....the maleficence of hackers and viruses, and some programming errors that caused a couple of sleepless nights.

Obstacles can be expected in any worthwhile project, so despite a few small setbacks, I will continue to move forward to the best of my ability.

Learning new things everyday keeps the process fun and interesting. Reaching one goal encourages me to strive for the next one...

One step at a time, I am clickin' for pennies and collectin' dollars.

Good Karma Clicks - One Month Update

Whatever you can do, or dream you can, Begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it, Begin it now.
- Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

There truly is magic in taking charge of your life experience, setting new goals, and embarking down untraveled paths....

What an adventure I have had in just one short month. (Happy Anniversary, to me!)

As I have officially been a member of the Good Karma Clicks community for one month, today, I think it is important to note that I have tried things I didn't even know existed last month. As a result of these trials I have learned a myriad of new skills and met some really nice people along the way.

In one month, my FIRST month just in Good Karma Clicks, I have accumulated 4 direct referrals, purchased 185 rentals, 3 banner ads, 1 Paid-to-sign-up ad and one regular Paid-to-click ad....

I am so grateful for the people who show up everyday and click the ads...and sign up for other programs I am involved with. Thank you, each and every one, for helping me achieve my dream of earning income online.

Now, I know every body really wants to know, "What is the 'bottom line'" in all this mumbo jumbo....

SO, as far as generating income is concerned, I have taken one cash-out of $25.23 and currently have $47.50 in my account. In addition to these amounts, I have paid for the above mentioned items that I purchased throughout the month with funds from the account....

With my current number of rented referrals, I am sneaking up on $6.00 per day from this site. I think this is a super-terrific accomplishment for one month!

Trishah, one of the site owners, is so wonderful. She has answered all of my questions promptly, in a most positive and helpful manner. I really appreciate knowing there is a live person, who cares about what is going on in their site and how it is affecting their customers, on the other side of the support ticket.

Without reservation, without hesitation, I enthusiastically recommend Good Karma Clicks as an excellent place to begin your adventure into the world of PTC.

IF you are looking for a way to increase your income, by a little or a lot, I invite you to join me there, right now, today! Its free and easy.....

All it takes is a few minutes to start you on your way to clickin' for pennies and collectin' $$$$$$$

The More the Merrier

The more the merrier.....
When it comes to referrals never a truer statement was written. Referrals are the lifeblood of PTC programs and the key to increasing the income potential of any Paid-to-Click site.

While I am learning the methods and skills necessary to attract personal (or direct) referrals, I am renting referrals whenever they are available and within the constraints of the individual programs.

This has allowed me to greatly increase my earnings in each of the sites. It may seem counter-intuitive to pay a fee to make more money, but it really is worth it. The referrals are comparable to the employees of a traditional business. Alone, I am able to click 4-10 clicks per day per site....With the help of the referrals, I am currently credited for 200-800 clicks per day, per site....depending on the number of referrals I have in any given site. The downside to rented referrals is that most sites have a limit to the number allowed to any one account.

On the other hand, most sites do not have limits on the number of direct referrals one can have....So to continue to increase earnings, it is necessary to attract direct referrals.

I am proud to report that I have had my best week yet as far as personal referrals are concerned. I have added 5 direct referrals to Vynbux, 4 direct referrals to Good Karma Clicks, 3 direct referrals in the new Site Explosion Manual Traffic Exchange, and 6 direct referrals in the new Click Track Profit program and last, but not least, I have 6 new subscribers in my autoresponder.

Things are definitely moving in the right direction...

Clickin' for Pennies is simple to do....Collectin' $$$$$ makes it all worthwhile.

One of Those Weeks!

Wow! This has been a great week.

Everything seems to be clickin' right along. The PTC sites that I have recommended are working like a charm....and I get to give myself a raise today! That's always super exciting.....

I am still collecting data on several sites and looking forward to recommending a couple of more pretty soon.

I got a little bit side tracked this week....I found myself in first place in the bracket surf at ILoveHits on Thursday and my competitive nature immediately kicked in and said....I can't let this go....I gotta TRY to win and so for the next 4 days, I surfed pretty much round the clock....and I won! WOO HOOO!

It was crazy and I don't need to do it again anytime soon, but it was fun and it did get the adrenaline pumpin'.

I also won credits at Free Traffic and Cash because I chose the Packers to win the Superbowl, and I won $6 at Showbiz Hits in the Superbowl drawing for surfing on Sunday.

Winning attracts winning! It also increases confidence -

I finally started using an autoresponder...This is really important and unfortunately, I have put it off because when I was first introduced to the idea, the steps seemed really complicated....too hard and too much work....

But, in my "winning" frame of mind I was able to put together three different campaigns....

Apparently, things aren't so hard when your ready to take that next step....

So, I have set some goals, taken some risks, and had some fun.

I am feeling more and more confident everyday that I am on the right track.

Making money has never been easier or more interesting than clickin' for pennies and collectin' $$$$$.

The Best PTC Sites

Today I want to share the three sites that I am currently using and feel are stable sites and worthy of recommending. The disclaimer here is that I have only been using PTC sites since the end of December 2010....I really have LIMITED experience in this endeavor, but am enthusiastically doin' my research everyday!

Anyway, of the 50 or so sites I joined and have been working, my favorites at this time are Good Karma Clicks, Onbux, and Infinitybux. I invite you to join me at these sites by clicking on the banners below.







These sites really are working for me and I am willing to bet that if you give it a try, you too, can be happily and gainfully clickin' for pennies and collectin' $$$$$$$.

One Month Update

Okay, so I have been Clickin' for Pennies for one whole month. What an exciting month it has been. I have gone from zero income at the beginning of this project to about $300 a month, if I stopped growing my business and just maintained my current position, at this moment.

But, since I have the opportunity to give myself a raise every few days, I think I will!

An amazing thing is happening, in that, as I wade through mountains of information and take action on what makes sense to me at the time, I am making noticeable progress toward my goal of earning an income from my computer in the comfort of my own home.

As I see it, there are many parts and layers to making an income online. The level of desire and dedication that you have will very likely determine just how far you can go with this program.

The first steps are very simple....Fill in the blanks to register for the programs listed on the right hand side of this page(onbux, goodkarmaclicks, infinitybux), then log in and click on the ads every day. It takes a measure of dedication and commitment, but very little time or effort to make a significant change in your income...

I would hazard to guess that a $500 dollar a month increase in income, for less than an hour-a-day effort, would greatly benefit most people....This can be achieved by following the steps outlined in the pages at the top of this blog called "Getting Started" and then continuing on with "Making $$$$$."

However, there may be some, like me, that want to go further and continue to build their business indefinitely. For those, the next step will be to advertise and start building their list. There are many ways to do this.

An excellent starting place, for anyone who is new to online earning, is a new site that has been set-up to lead new online marketers through the steps necessary for success. It is very simple and will only take about an hour to complete the steps. This promises to be a very worthwhile program for beginners.
