I was sure I had reached 1500 posts long ago, but it seems through the deletion of threads that I am back down to 1500, so I thought I would give back to this wonderful forum that has given me so much.
A few tips for you all.
Be consistent. Whatever you decide to do, stick to it. Stop chasing the shiny buttons, because guess what, another shiny button is always around the corner.
Just do it. Stop waiting to the perfect idea tomorrow. Run with the great idea today. Procrastination and waiting for things to be perfect and major time and effort drains. You'll find yourself running in circles never getting anything done this way.
Build relationships. This is a major point and one I always try to drive home. I have built some amazing relationships on this forum over the years, some I would consider family. I won't list you all here, as it would take the entire post, but you know who you are, and I love you all and am forever grateful for that which you have all given me. I have some amazing chances and amazing JV's as a result.
Take everything with a grain of salt. On this forum and online in general you're gonna get a whole lotta advice. Take it with a grain of salt and come to your own conclusions. So many times right here in the forum I see the case of the blind leading the blind, and the advice is down right horrible and sure to screw your whole marketing plan over.
Which brings me to the next point. Treat this like a business. You need to have a plan of attack. You can't just throw ideas around and go in a million directions. Plan things out and you'll end up with much better results.
Do your research. There are a whole bunch of snake oil sellers right here on the WF and a whole bunch more online in general, be cautious with your money, and think twice before you hit the shiny buy now button.
Set goals. This goes with making a plan for your business. If you have goals, even small little ones, you'll find yourself with more drive and find yourself that much more likely to reach those finish lines.
I could really go on and on.
With ten years of being online, I've fallen for every type of scam, I've had my entire business pulled out from under my feet, and I've rebuilt it again. I've made friends, I've made enemies too. But through it all, I kept going because I knew one day I would make it. And I made it big time in the last few years. I've had months where I've made more than I had made in the entire year prior, I've had months where my income dried up and went away. But I'm still here. And after 1500 posts here on the WF, I am thankful to still be among the warriors, and proud to be a warrior.
Best wishes,
Sylvia
