    How do you control your thoughts and stay focused on your business?

    Thanks everyone, some very helpful replies there. I don't read tabloids actually :) I will try taking breaks and scheduling time for stuff not on my list or helpful to the business at hand.

    How do you control your thoughts and stay focused on your business?

    I sometimes let unhelpful thoughts and memories take over my focus and distract me from working on my business. Do you have any suggestions or tips on how to stop thinking about stuff that is unhelpful to you and focus your thoughts on the stuff you need to be thinking about? Thanks!

    Acquiring the first few customers

    Sorry but I'm not sure that I understand what a "PPC management agency" does. If I was going to run a PPC campaign using Google Adwords, would you select the keywords, write the ads and then implement the campaign, or is it something different?

    What sort of volumes will you be doing? If the volumes are low, you could get one of those three in one scan, printer, copier machines very cheap.

    Sorry to hear about your difficulties zimple. Have you considered longer term lettings of rooms? E.g. letting out rooms for a week or a month, at a special rate? Do you have conference / meeting rooms at your hotel? Why not? You say business is not as good as you would like, would you not...

    It's not a huge amount of money, but I hate feeling that I'm being ripped off. I paid about $160 each for lifetime owned licences a few years ago, on the basis that updates were free, provided that I paid the annual membership fee.
