I’m in the middle of a move today.  Nashville hit it’s first freezing day the other day and I hate cold weather…I hate it so much, I decided I’m out of here for the winter.  I seriously can’t stand cold weather.  I really want to head to the beach.  I love to surf and it’s been a while since I’ve lived on the water.I think it’s about time that changed!

There’s a big problem though… I don’t really have the cash right now to just take off to the beach for the whole winter.

All my funds have been spent on outsourcers to make sure my client projects get completed by the new year.

I checked my available funds just after paying the movers almost $1000 and I have $70 in my account.

That doesn’t sound like a great start for heading to the beach for the winter now does it…

Am I worried?  Hell no!

The first that actually popped in my head was this is a perfect challenge to get myself kicked back into gear.  I also think this situation could be a great way to show you just how powerful working hard and smart can be in only 1 month.

I am going to document my journey over the next month to show you just how to go from broke to living in Hawaii in hopefully 30 days.  It should be fun.  It will be a nice challenge for me too.  I chose Hawaii to make it a little more difficult than just moving to Florida.

Today is actually going to be day 1.  Even though I’m moving today to Auburn, there are still a few smart actions I can take to make the goal I’ve set.

The first thing I always do to achieve my goals is make a battle plan.  In this case, I think it would be smart to make a small dream line.  A dream line is somewhat of a goal chart, but it will include actions I need to b making on a scheduled basis so that I stay on the right track.  These things rock and are essential to give you a clear idea about how to reach your goals.

Since I’ve set this challenge to only 30 days, I will be making this dream line only a 1 month dream line.  You usually want to create a dream line that extends 6-12 months.

So first off, think about your goal.  My goal is to be living in Hawaii by January 12th for 30-90 days.  I would like to be back in Nashville for my birthday, April 13 2012.   This beach trip is really just a get away from the cold weather.  I will still be working in Hawaii, just surfing before and afterwards.

You want to know exactly how much money you need to make your goal come true.  So today, we can do a small amount of research.  I took a look around Orbitz and Expedia to find the best flight prices leaving January 12th.   Then, I looked around Zillow for some rental prices.  I happen to have a friend in the military who lives on the big island.  This is a perfect connection to help keep an eye out in the local area.

The minimum time I want to be in Hawaii is 30 days, so I will plan for a 30 day lease.  After taking a look around, I found a few nice places right on the beach.  The average cost is looking like $1500 for the ones I would like.  The flight cost is looking like right around $1000 for the round trip.

We want to take into account living expenses and fun too.  I do not plan on going to Hawaii to live like a bum.  I want to have some fun while I’m over there.  I will be doing a lot more research on things I want to do while I’m there later on, but for now, I will assume I will spend about $3,000 on fun and food for the first month.

Our total money required ends up being $1,500 + $1,000 + $3,000 = $5,500.  I like to always add 25% to my total to be safe.  So the fixed total ends up running $6,650.

I need to make nearly 7k this month to make it to Hawaii.  While I’m there I can manage to profit and continue to stay as long as I want.

After you have your money total, you can really break it down to figure out how you can achieve your goal.

Think about what assets you have to make money and use them.  My quickest money makers are either consulting packages, large ticket business in a box work, or product launches.  I am getting out of the consulting packages and large ticket business in a box work as much as possible.  This means my best bet to making my goal would be product launches.

My current product launches are averaging about a $5,500 profit in the first week.  This means I would have to launch at least 2 solid products in the next 30 days.  That’s exactly what I’m going to do too.

You may be thinking… wait a minute… when I launch a product, I don’t make $5,500 in the first week.  Well, product launches may not be your best asset to utilize.  Please keep in mind, most of my time is going to be focused on completing my client projects this month too.  This challenge is to get me working double time and get productive.

You could realistically launch 5 products a month with only a small amount of knowledge within internet marketing.  The products I launch this month are going to try and focus on the skills I’m using to make it to Hawaii.  Product creation is definitely one of these powerful quick money maker skills.

Another great asset I can take advantage of is the products I already have on the market.  I have about 6 live products on the market now which I can help sell more today.  That’s exactly what I’m going to do too.

To help start this challenge off right, today starts a weekend half price sale for all my products on the market.  Not only is everything half off from it’s regular price… this is the last time you will see them at such a ridiculously low price.  Each WSO I have on the market today will be given it’s own domain next week and each price will be doubled to fit the world wide market.  Here’s what you can get for super cheap and only until December 11th at 11:59 P.M.
