One thing that I really hate doing is wasting time. All of us are guilty of filling in our spare time with things like checking email, checking Facebook, reading blogs...the non essentials. What I want to teach you about is focusing and an schedule where you get articles research, written, submitted and social bookmarked.
The best way to do this is a written schedule of "important" tasks and "non important tasks". This way you get to the important things first and you don't was all of your time doing the unimportant things (like checking your email).
Examples of the important ACTION tasks:
(1) Writing Articles
(2) Submitting Articles
(3) Bookmarking your Articles
Examples of important RESEARCH tasks:
(1) Researching Keywords
(2) Researching Content
(3) Find Relevant Affiliate Programs
Tasks to AVOID when working on your MAD Marketing Campaigns:
(1) Checking your email
(2) Chatting with your friends on Facebook
(3) Download Music
(4) Reading Online News
Notice that I broke down tasks into action and research tasks. 50% of your time should be invested into the action component and 50% should be spent on the research. This is the best combination for efficiency and for productivity.
