Early on my online business journey, I determined to be a student of the game.
The game is Internet Marketing, selling or promoting anything online, the online business world, and I wanted to take it all in.
Today, more than 10-years on this journey, successful, respected, and my work referenced by thousands, I continue as a student of the game.
I read, observe, crack the books, master, pursue, pore over, review, soak up, study, and I encourage you to do likewise.
2 questions that I ask myself to start everyday:
- What can I learn today?
- What can I teach today?
Yes, I pursue learning, everyday.
Yes, I make it a priority to help others.
Ok, let me share with you some of my key learnings, in no particular order, in rapid-fire mode
- Honesty, integrity, respect, courtesy, and family, is everything. Regardless of any negative stereotypes attached to Internet marketing, I refuse to be transformed as such. Therefore, I pursue what is right, all the time, and my future is bright.
- Significant, daily, and ongoing daily traffic is the key to my success. All else has no bearing, without this kind of traffic. Therefore, I pursue traffic, traffic building, today, tomorrow, and years from now.
- Helping others, with no strings attached, is the most productive use of my time. There is something special, powerful, unexplainable, that takes place, when you reach your helping hand out to others.
- There is no such thing as a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow. The moment I stopped chasing the rainbows, chasing after every best new thing, was the moment I started achieving real success in my online business.
- Advertising is advertising is advertising is advertising is advertising. Online, or off, basic advertising principles apply. This was a huge learning for me. Once I started testing everything, planting seeds by the thousands, and focussing on the very best, it all started coming together.
I could go on and on here. Email anytime with questions. Some of you have discovered that I am an open book, ready to help, offer advice, whenever called on. I am here.
