I thought it would be an opportune moment to detail quickly my progress since signing up for Alex Jeffreys Coaching Course before it finally starts proper later tonight.

Can’t believe how far I’ve come in less than 5 days and the mentoring sessions haven’t even started proper yet!  Here’s a quick summary of what can be done if you really focus and put your mind to it in a short space of time;

  • Got my blog up and running

  • Changed the theme of the blog to be more attractive

  • Registered on PayDotCom for Internet marketers

  • Found some free video streaming software, CamStudio

  • Created my first tutorial video

  • Signed up with YouTube

  • Regularly (at least daily) posts to my Blog

  • Posted comments on like minded people’s blog

  • Set up a student BlogRoll

  • Resolved a host of technical problems by finding helpful forums

So what have I learnt?

Well, firstly none of this is rocket science. It just needs focus and commitment. Things that I shied away from in the past or felt intimidated about the complexities of, were unfounded. Yeah, for sure I’ve hit one or two problems (still a few outstanding in fact), but the Internet is a wonderful resource and there are loads of places to find answers to your problems. You shouldn’t let the fear of not knowing be an excuse for not doing anything. PERIOD. 

 

All in all I’m pretty pleased with myself. As a consequence I’ve had loads of visitors, emails, comments and people seem to really like the design of my Blog and keep coming back. I’ve managed to help a few people along the way and already feel as though I’m making some really good friends and acquaintances that are going to be supportive of one another.

 

What Next?

I’ll put up another post later about what I’ll be doing next. Thanks for the positive feedback about my idea of putting up some instructional videos about “how to make videos for your website”. That’s definitely on my list of things to do. Also, any more feedback on the Forum idea I posted in a comment? Tell me what you think. For those who missed the comment here is a quote from it:

” I was thinking of starting a community forum on my site so that we could all raise topics, record useful information and also help out with each others problems along the way. A forum is a better platform to do this than a blog as it allows better interaction and supportive environment. “

Finally, I suddenly woke up last night and thought ah-ha, that’s a brilliant idea! I’ll let you know later what my ideas are as I’ll have to prioritize things first. I’ve loads to do at the moment and want to make sure I can really hit the ground running after Alex’s first mentoring session later tonight.

 

… until next time. And remember “Anyone Can Do it” - as long as you TAKE ACTION. I’ll leave you all with that thought.
