Pleasant Surprise Today
So today I was going through my timeline on Facebook and see an offer for a free book on using LIVE video by a long time successful entrepreneur named Joel Comm...
Joel has been at the cutting edge of the internet for a couple of decades (a lifetime in internet terms), and has a knack for picking out today what the future will bring in the world of the internet...I have followed him for some time...
Here is a bit more on who Joel is:

So of course, knowing this, I register for the free ebook and download it.
Because I am very interested in Live Video for building my online business, I immediately read it (it is not a long read, more like a report or an executive summary)...
Well when reaching the end of the book, I see some testimonials have been added, and guess what?
Mine was included!
Here is a snapshot:
In case this is hard to read, here is what I said about Joel:
"I've gained invaluable insight into the disruptive leaps occurring on an ever faster pace due to your sharing what you're exposed to with your unique position in the live video streaming world...If it weren't for you, I'd still be in the dark. I'm sure I speak for many others when I say you're essential and an intricate piece of the live video puzzle that is developing right before us. This keeps us ahead of competitors and makes us more effective for our clients."
Why Mention This Here?
I wanted to share this because not only is it a surprise (a pleasant one), but also to pass on a lesson and make a point...
Comments you make on other sites, posts, tutorials, etc. can be helpful to you in a number of ways...
This book likely will be seen by many thousands of people. The reason I know this is that Joel is quite famous, the book is free, and it has some really good advice for readers/online marketers or any one that could use live video for their business...
That comment I added to one of Joel's training sessions now will be seen by thousands...
A good thing that will help me build more credibility and authority...
Conclusion
Pay attention to what you are writing when you make comments, because the words are a reflection of you and what you represent.
