Every company I have gone to needs one of these types of "systems." Make the system and re-use it...over and over and over again. Good post Andrew, and your entry just confirms I'm on the right path.

The real question is what do you want to create from your work, money, sex, power, ego or the real key is intent? So people work really hard but to others they are lazy? Whos right?

If we don't automate or focus on residual income streams, we'll all be working into our graves. I've been trying to develop a residual income stream for years and automate my online operations for years. Hopefully it'll allow me to take time away from the computer one day...

I have done lots of efforts to be associated with my regular clients to do marketing for me. I want to leave "marketing" and be lazy (lazy means the same as explained above in the article). I want my partners or clients do marketing for me. For me doing marketing remotely (virtually presence through net) is more harder than physical presence. I appriciate Andrew for this nice article. I know it will help a lot to all of you. BTW, why not we all get assocaite with each other ;) Rakesh, DesignOweb I worked hard this year for a plan to get business even if i am away (or lazy) for next year 2006.

My plan in 2006 is to work hard on internal projects (instead of client projects) and take a few big client projects to pay the bills. Hopefully those internal projects, which consist of a few e-commerce sites, information sites, and some offline ventures, will pay off and 2007 will be a much more relaxed and enjoyable year than 2005.

I will continue to create websites for customers (although i'll be taking a slightly different approach to that now), to raise money for other projects, and to keep cash coming in until other projects have taken off. My ultimate goal, however is to build up a network of income generating sites, which will require little maintenance. I wish all of you a very merry christmas, and a happy & prosperous new year!
