I’m really getting frustrated these days with a little something called project management and was hoping that someone out there might have some solution or suggestion(s) for me to try out.

Managing one single project would not be so bad, but in my case i am not so fortunate – I am trying to manage multiple projects at once, 4 to be specific and although i know this is not a good thing to do as my focus really should be on one thing at a time to remain effective, i cannot stray from the other projects – all are important and essential.

It’s been a very long year for me actually but with a nice positive ending! So i can relax knowing that leading into 2009 is looking good!

This year has been full of ups and downs for me, and while i have learned quite a bit this year, i have learned one very big lesson throughout the course of this year as I’ve found myself engulfed and feeling forced to sacrifice any social time i may otherwise have.

Let me first share what i am talking about more in detail:

I am very happy to announce that i have completed my first real eBook entitled BlogFU – I am sure you’ve seen the optin form by now.

I would encourage those of you who may need help with setting up and configuring your Wordpress blog to give this a read.  I have tried to keep it strict by focusing on just the key areas that you’ll need to be attentive

towards with Wordpress.

I’m not much of a writer, so i hope it’ll do it’s purpose just fine.

My friend Garry Parkes made a brand new post over at his blog the other day that really should be of interest to all students in the Alex Jeffrey’s mentoring program.

Traffic is probably the biggest obstacle you’ll need to overcome before you are prepared for success and the best part about what is set to transpire here is that all traffic you’ll receive from this idea of Garry’s will be targeted – meaning those people who click on your link to visit your blog through his newsletter will be looking to find out what you are up to or what you may be offering on your blog. In addition to this, you’ll only need to do the work once and you are completely set up for as long as your links remain active in his edition.

Yes,there are many MANY resources and information products that cover Wordpress in some way or another, however piecing together the most essential things can be a huge pain in the ass!

With that said, i’ve decided to put my experiences/knowledge on paper so to speak and share it you, the readers.

Although it’s not set in stone – at this stage the guide is focusing more on the following areas:

1. Installing your blog in 5minutes or less
2. Blog themes – what you should be looking for
3. Plugins that i use and what they are used for
