00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,580
In closing, I just want to share a couple last thoughts with you.

2
00:00:03,580 --> 00:00:06,840
The biggest thing is this takes time.

3
00:00:06,840 --> 00:00:09,850
You are not going to magically become a thought leader overnight.

4
00:00:09,850 --> 00:00:12,470
You are not going to suddenly have people writing checks to you.

5
00:00:12,470 --> 00:00:16,350
It takes time. Content marketing is the long game. 

6
00:00:17,170 --> 00:00:19,690
Yes, you might find success tomorrow or next week,

7
00:00:19,690 --> 00:00:23,740
 but start thinking of 6 months or a year, it's going to take time.

8
00:00:24,240 --> 00:00:26,240
I've been blogging out for 11 years.

9
00:00:26,390 --> 00:00:29,000
 It took me a long time before I was asked to be on stage.

10
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:32,310
It took me even longer before I was asked to write a book. 

11
00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:35,150
You're in this for the long haul.

12
00:00:35,570 --> 00:00:38,500
Looking it at that way and then trust me, you'll be much happier.

13
00:00:39,620 --> 00:00:43,620
And finally, there are days when this is like slugging through the Mars. 

14
00:00:43,620 --> 00:00:45,650
It is not always fun

15
00:00:46,390 --> 00:00:48,470
but you can make it fun.

16
00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:50,340
I love doing this stuff. 

17
00:00:50,430 --> 00:00:52,750
 Taking random photos while you're walking about,  

18
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:54,860
going out, consuming content, reading,

19
00:00:54,860 --> 00:00:57,460
looking at what other people are doing is fun.

20
00:00:58,490 --> 00:01:00,020
Do not make this a chore.

21
00:01:00,450 --> 00:01:02,800
The more you embrace it, the more you live this

22
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:07,560
and just enjoy it, you're going to have a lot easier time with it.

23
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:12,330
Find what you love doing. Find a fun angle. 

24
00:01:12,330 --> 00:01:16,850
And all this blogging and making money from it, is much much easier.

25
00:01:16,850 --> 00:01:19,280
Don't be nervous, don't be scared, don't say, 

26
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:21,110
well they're not doing it how can I do that. 

27
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:23,960
This is your blog and your future. 

28
00:01:23,980 --> 00:01:27,510
Have fun doing it and thank you for watching.
