Today, as always, I listen to a lot of audios and videos throughout the day (through the internet on my PC) interspersed with doing the things of life such as I got the boys harnessed to work on cleaning their room. We worked together.
So in addition to Emily Utter's The Adventerous Entrepreneur telesummit, I am also listening to Natalie Hill's Tap Into Money telesummit. But I find myself really picking and choosing the interviews I give my time to because my brain and other energy is turning to full commitment to the preparation and work involved in Six Figure Mentors. A lot of the topics that really helped me last year, such as building my mindset, is receding in importance as a new set of topics becomes more relevant. Not that mindset is ever going to go out of style, that is impossible, but now instead of just building and soaking in it, I want to act on practical bits. So that's the kind of information I need now.
So, Six Figure Mentors.
I signed up for a live webinar to be given by Stuart Ross. For Monday. And I signed up for my first 10 minute phone call with Ash, my consultant with SFM. For Tuesday. I'm nervous. I have spent a lot of time behind my screen. I want to really reach out and connect with people now, but this will be a stretch for me. But I am excited to be acting on that stretch. It makes it all very real.
I listened to all the videos of Module 1 at Six Figure Mentors, even though the audio and video was not the best on some of them. But I figured out what they meant. A lot of broad, groundwork stuff but that is good. But at the end of Module 1, that was basically all I could do on my 29.95 application except for a Bonus Course which I started. I think the Bonus Course is an older course not actively used anymore--except as a Bonus Course! So I felt kind of hanging. I felt a lot of momentum I wanted to keep up, and now stalled. I expected to have a little more to immerse at this point in but, hm okay.
So I looked at my discount of my next level upgrade in the SFM system (Basic, $197). And I looked at my checking account register. Moved some things around in my budget that I could live without until later in the month--when I'm a millionaire, you know. The $197 was doable. Wouldn't have anything left over really, but I'm used to that anyway, for a lot dumber reasons (lots of cookies and McDs). And I expect a great return on my investment.
Here's the thing. Investing in SFM is not an uncertain thing. It's obvious that they have their shit together.
The decision is about whether to invest in me (one) and whether to invest in this direction in my life (two). The first decision I already made last year. Yes. I am going to create my dream life. I will learn what I need to learn and do what I need to do. The time is now.
As for this direction--that is, affiliate marketing--really, I'm jazzed. And SFM has it laid out so step-by-step. I just need to act and persist. It feels like a playground. And I'm not being pie-in-the-sky. I know they keep saying I'll have to work at it and invest in marketing etc but I'm actually already used to that with what I've been doing this last year. Marketing for me is just another word for fun and connecting with people. My mindset about marketing is completely open and focused. Not saying I know everything, I know I don't otherwise I'd already have the cash. Looking forward to more skills.
So I upgraded. Voila, tons of more information opened up on my member SFM dashboard. So onward to Module 2. Which included some reading homework including some great training on using empowering language. And a 28-page (whew!) glossary of terms that relate to online and affiliate marketing. A lot, but I'm going to apply myself. I want to prepare and build that foundation.
Onward!
