That’s the question you should be asking yourself everyday…. what am “I” going to do today?

As many of you know, I have 4 kids.  That means I have to watch CARTOONS occasionally.  The little guys like a cartoon called Phineas and Ferb.  Basically it’s the same plot every show.

1.) P and F find something to do today.  Usually it’s building something that a kid couldn’t ever build. Spaceship, roller coaster, etc….

2.) Their pet platypus is really a secret agent that has to stop an incompetent evil scientist every show.

3.) P and F’s sister tries to show her mom what the boys built every show – but it always gets destroyed by the platypus and evil scientist just before that happens.

Same thing happens every show.  ( a lot like scooby do really for those of us who grew up watching that).

Hey – it’s a cartoon…. no one said it had to be deep and complex.

The point is that the boys build amazing things in an afternoon.  Things that take folks like NASA 10 years to build.

What could YOU build in an afternoon?  Could you set things up to rule a small niche?  Could you make someone ranking for a profitable term cry as you set things up to steal it from them?  Could you build a website that you could sell to get yourself something you want?

I know what you probably do..  you read (and waste money on) ebooks, spend hours in forums, pretend you are working while you look at youtube.  You aren’t “working” when you have itunes open

There are a zillion things on-line that can suck up your time.

Like this Phineas and Ferb video now that I’ve got you wondering what the big deal is.

Or this funky bathroom rhythms song that will probably get stuck in your head.

I’m going to try and help you though.  This new category at Black Hat Digest will be giving you little projects that you can kick off in an afternoon.  Warning:  Some will cost money to complete so you can finish them in just a few hours.  You know you need to do it fast because you will be back to screwing around if you try to make it last to long~!
