I just watched an awesome YouTube video that made me feel guilty and motivated. It wasn’t Gary V, it was some random dude that I stumbled upon. He was just freely promoting Nichehacks.com. Anyway here are some cool takeaways that made me really think…

He said something like this… If you are watching this video, you are not working on your business. He explained that watching motivational videos are good for your personal learning, but that specific time watching the video is not helping your business. You are not progressing your business if you aren’t actually working on something like… Creating a video, Writing a blog post, connecting with Facebook groups that are in your business niche, Helping someone on Facebook, etc.

He went on to say you have to BURN the DESIRE or GOAL into your brain. BURN it in there!

Then he went on about strategy and implementing. I loved everything he said. He was authentic and not selling anything.

So here is his basic recipe…

1. Your GOAL must be a burning desire that your burn into your brain. You must FOCUS on this and don’t change your mind. You will see things online that will distract you, but you can not change your course until your goal is accomplished.
2. Create a STRATEGY. This needs to be specific and actionable. For example, you need to say… In order for me to be successful online I have to increase my exposure online… like Facebook, YouTube, Etc. So break that down into actionable specific things. Here is an example. Publish two videos a week to YouTube. Then plan when, where, and how to get it done. Create a clear and simple plan that you know you will accomplish those things.
3. IMPLEMENT – Get after it! What is “it?” That DESIRE that is BURNED into your BRAIN! Yep… don’t waste it watching more videos. Don’t spend your time on you. Spend time working and progressing on your business.
4. ADJUST – Go over your GOAL, STRATEGY, & IMPLEMENTATIONS every week. See how you performed. See what worked. Follow your strengths within your overall goal or niche and keep chasing whatever is working.

Ok guys, this is simple and to me, it is inspiring. Think about how many hours did you spend on your online business last week? This is without learning! Seriously how much time did you put into publishing content? How many publications did you publish? How many people did you actually content with for your business? How many offers did you extend?

Ok I’m done with my rant. Now either go get to work, or you can watch this same video that motivated me… and then go work 🙂

Here is the video… I am curious what you guys think.

Have you ever seen this guy? He wears these pajamas in every video he makes 🙂 Anyway, he has some SOLID content about making money online. This video gives some basic steps of how to get started making money as an affiliate using a computer and the internet. Sounds nice, right?

Not only does he claim you can work from your living room, but he also claims you can only work one hour a day!!! Holy smokes, that would be awesome! If you watch this whole video you will see that he probably puts in more time working in a day than just 1 hour.

He suggests taking one hour a day to just learn new things. It seems like he is learning more effective ways to scale his business in his space, along with many other things. In my opinion that makes a lot of sense. Yes, this to me is a GOLDEN NUGGET! (Take 1 hour a day to learn something in your space.)

My addition to the golden nugget is to take action with it! Figure out how to apply it. My word of caution with that is to not get overwhelmed by it though and apply it to what you are already doing. If it works and you like it, then apply it to something else if that interests you more.

Anyway, back to this video… He outlines how to be an affiliate very quickly at the beginning of this video. He doesn’t give details in this specific video, but he does give some structure. For the rest of the video he does a LIVE Q&A. It can be a little long and boring, but he does say some key things that are valuable. My suggestion is to watch the whole thing!

My opinion of this guy… I believe he is Honest and Realistic. He is simple, real, and authentic. He says in this video he is all “white hat.” I definitely believe he is. I hope this is helpful. Let me know what you guys think.
