Got any tips for being a full time affiliate at home?
The first thing I would suggest is to pick up a copy of Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity by David Allen.
It’s a great book. It will give you lots of tips on streamlining the way you do things. I’ve found it to be incredibly helpful in increasing my productivity.
Second of all, since one of the great things about working from home is not being tethered to your desk, I’d say my Blackberry is invaluable. Get yourself a Blackberry or similar device, so you can go around and do your thing and still have access to e-mail, the Web, telephone and everything.
Lastly, one of my most important things is caffeine. I get that from two sources and I alternate them throughout the day.
One is my Keurig Elite 40 coffee maker. It enables me to have different gourmet coffees in single cups. It’s a great little machine.
And, of course, I need a nearby refrigerator to house a supply of my Diet Dr. Pepper.
Those are my secrets to being productive and efficient throughout the day. Good luck with being a full-time affiliate.

Carsten was kind enough to surprise me with Getting Things Done. I am a big fan because he is practical in a way that other books are not, i.e. he says do A, B, and C. I’ve had everyone at Schaaf Consulting read it. We’re still working it in but I also recommend the Outlook PDF which you can download for $10.
Hi Carsten -
Didn’t know about the MS Outlook Add-On – just checked out the link. Unfortunately Vista isn’t yet supported and I upgraded last week.
Thanks,
Shawn
Hey Shawn,
Getting things done by David Allen is also one of my favorites. You recommended it once last year, if I remember correctly. I picked it up back than and love it. Thanks for the recommendation btw.
Did you know that there is a MS Outlook Add-On that lets you apply the methods from GTD within outlook and you emails?
I have also some more Personal Productivity and Project Management Tools amoung other tools you might want to check out. Some are free, some are not, but all come in handy.
Cheers
Carsten

Make that aspartame water, mister!
Love the caffeine tip.
However, I’d go with green tea since it’s better for you than the sugar water you prescribe!
