The Checklist
Now and then I find my mind wandering from topic to topic so often that any momentum I had in my business came to a grinding halt. Whether you call it puppy mind or monkey mind, it causes the same problem for Kajabi entrepreneurs: nothing gets done.
There are a lot of reasons for a wandering mind- shiny object syndrome, being anxious or fearful of a particular outcome, or plain old overwhelm, to name just a few. Do any of these sound familiar to you? If so, read on for a couple of tried and true strategies to help you sharpen your focus so that progress in your online business isn’t derailed.
Keeping Productive Without Feeling Like You’re In Boot Camp
Do you like the structure of keeping track of your daily “to dos” but don’t like having to fiddle around with a lot of different tools to keep the momentum going? Check out the aptly named Momentum App, which you can use to sharpen your focus in a wellness kind of way. It’s easy to add it to your Chrome extension bar. The free plan features a beautiful workspace with nature wallpaper that changes daily, motivational quotes, a to-do list, and a Pomodoro timer feature for 25-minute bursts of productivity. I love this feature because you put in a burst of work, and then have a reminder to get up and stretch or have a drink of water. If you choose the Pro Plan, you can activate the soothing sound of background noise (I’m playing forest sounds as I write this) and utilize integration features with Trello and Asana to name just a few.
If you like the Daily Calm, you’ll love Momentum’s gentle approach to productivity. The image above is a sneak peek at what my Momentum workspace looks like.

Your List of Kajabi To-Do’s
Whether you’re working on a sales funnel, a lead magnet opt-in sequence, or your new home page, Kajabi can be a little overwhelming at times. One of the easiest ways to get what needs to be done on the tech side is to work backward. Do you want to build a website so that you have a sales page for your sales funnel? Instead of doing a whole lot of prep work and implementation of a multi-page website, try the opposite.
The Backward Sales Funnel
Create your thank you/welcome page.
Create a welcome/thank you email sequence (at least one email, but hopefully 3).
Create your offer next (and connect the thank you page and email sequence to it).
Create your sales page (and connect your offer to it).
That’s all you need for now, so rest easy. You can always build out the rest of your Kajabi website when the time is right and when you're not feeling under pressure.
Move Away From the Desk
How many times have solutions occurred to you during a walk, in the shower, or while working in the garden? I bet it happens all the time. There’s all kinds of research showing that movement not only boosts your mood, but it boosts your creativity as well. Exactly what content creators need! Stepping away from the work environment, even for 15 minutes, can expose us to different situations that act as a stimulus for our imagination. So the next time you feel helpless while trying to solve a problem, try stepping away from it. You may find the solution you were looking for.
