If you intend to complete your eBook in a reasonable amount of time, whether that is seven days or three months, you will need to focus your attention on your writing project. Maintaining this kind of focus is the biggest problem writers encounter, but it does not have to be that way. Here are some ways to get your eBook completed in a timely manner and develop the focus that will help you succeed in all areas of running a business on the internet.
- Write down your exact goal in regards to your eBook. Decide in the beginning whether you will give it away, use it as a lead generator, or set up a web page to sell it online.
- Spend some time researching your topic to make sure there are enough people who are interested in purchasing your information in eBook format to solve their problem. I can’t stress this point enough. You do not want to spend time writing an eBook that no one is interested in purchasing. Continue to go back and do this research as you are writing. If you focus on the keywords that people are using to search for your niche topic, you will have a greater chance of success.
- Set time every day to write. You will need peace and quiet, and a time that suits your writing style. This takes an enormous amount of discipline, so give your attention fully to this part of the writing process.
- Learn the technology that will be necessary to get your sales letter and other web pages up on the internet. If you need someone to help walk you through the steps, embrace this opportunity to learn new skills. Even if you can afford to have someone else do it for you, take an active part in this process and you will be able to duplicate it over and over again.
- Stay on task until you have succeeded. No matter what you encounter along the way, be persistent and you will succeed.
Writing an eBook is a worthwhile proposition that will change your life forever. Once you become an author, you will have opportunities that would never have been available previously.

Boy you are dead on about writing goals for you e-book. I get so off track when I start writing. Must be my math background. Instead of writing I want to crunch numbers.
