A week has passed and I'm getting back to you with a little update.
Let's take a look at what I have done so far:
I still had an old account on Amazon, which I reactivated, so to speak. (Not really because it was still active, but I needed to update a few things). So that's taken care of.
Regarding point 2: Over the last few years, I've made a lot of notes on various strategies on Amazon, whenever I came across them, all of which worked (at least once upon a time). I looked through those notes again and one thing was immediately clear: there are a lot of possible ways to succeed.
Do all of these strategies still work today (for example, one strategy was written down more than seven years ago and I myself found it about three years ago) and will I succeed with them too? I won't know until I test it. And that's what I intend to do.
What's also clear is that I don't have to commit to a single strategy because everything is on Amazon anyway. So I can test specific aspects of the different strategies at the same time without much effort.
Regarding point 3: I haven't done any product research yet. So you could say that I failed on this point. But I will start doing it this week - as soon as I have defined the next necessary steps I need to take to test the strategies that currently appeal to me the most.
In any case, what I have become aware of in the last few days is the fact that I need to take care of my time management and the way I manage priorities. I need to get in the habit of doing the most important things first every day. Often I plan to do important things in the evening, for example - but then something comes up, or I don't have enough time or I'm just too tired to tackle these things... It is just too unreliable the way it is at the moment and I need to find a more systematic approach.
So finding a good system here will be an important next step to move forward - besides testing different strategies on Amazon.
That's all for now.
