Avoid Copywriting "Burnout" Forever With This Simple Trick

At any given time I am working on ezine articles for my stuff and other people, sales letters for myself, clients and even my wife's business, not to mention a host of other little projects and business chores.

And yet, I haven't suffered "burnout" in years. In fact, I am always on fire to get to work and rarin' to go.

What's my secret?

Well, what I do is I have a stack of 3X5 note cards and every week I just down the next week's schedule.

And what I do is purposely alternate each week with a heavy workload and a light workload.

For example, on week one of any given month, I may pack in the work every day. Then, on week two, I do maybe 2 or 3 things each day and get done before noon. Sometimes even earlier.

And by doing this hard/easy alternation each week, I totally avoid burnout.

Reason why is because during an easy week I get things done early and have a bunch of time on my hands. By Sunday I'm chomping at the bit to get back to work. Really, I can't wait to get back to work.

On the other hand, during a heavy week I get very tired towards the end. But tired in a good way. Because while I know there will still be work the next week, I know it is going to be a virtual vacation compared to what I just did. So I look forward to it. I look forward to the stress-free week ahead.

Anyway, I know it sounds simple. But it works like crazy.

Try it and see for yourself. Break out a couple 3X5 cards and make one a heavy week, the other a light week.

I think you'll find yourself getting a lot more work done while totally eliminating burnout forever.
