Closing Thoughts

In closing, I just want to share a couple last thoughts with you. 0:00 The biggest thing is this takes time. 0:03 You are not going to magically become a thought leader overnight. 0:06 You are not going to suddenly have people writing checks to you. 0:09 It takes time. Content marketing is the long game. 0:12 Yes, you might find success tomorrow or next week, 0:17 but start thinking of 6 months or a year, it's going to take time. 0:19 I've been blogging out for 11 years. 0:24 It took me a long time before I was asked to be on stage. 0:26 It took me even longer before I was asked to write a book. 0:29 You're in this for the long haul. 0:33 Looking it at that way and then trust me, you'll be much happier. 0:35 And finally, there are days when this is like slugging through the Mars. 0:39 It is not always fun 0:43 but you can make it fun. 0:46 I love doing this stuff. 0:48 Taking random photos while you're walking about, 0:50 going out, consuming content, reading, 0:52 looking at what other people are doing is fun. 0:54 Do not make this a chore. 0:58 The more you embrace it, the more you live this 1:00 and just enjoy it, you're going to have a lot easier time with it. 1:02 Find what you love doing. Find a fun angle. 1:08 And all this blogging and making money from it, is much much easier. 1:12 Don't be nervous, don't be scared, don't say, 1:16 well they're not doing it how can I do that. 1:19 This is your blog and your future. 1:21 Have fun doing it and thank you for watching. 1:23
