Slow Down, You Move Too Fast

OK it's not Paul and Art, but hey no copyright problems then :-)
This is a journey, not a race. Sometimes we forget that.
What niche you choose initially doesn't matter a heck of a lot as long as you like to write about it and it has some potential. The idea is to learn how to learn, how to track, how to adapt.
There are a lot of moving parts here. Writing a blog is only the beginning. But you need that base to move ahead.
But once you have that, how do you reliability get eyeballs? There's social media, video, email lists, PPC. Then tracking all of that. It's a lot of stuff.
So best to focus on the journey and figure out where you are and where you're going.
Otherwise, you'll get somewhere but not where you want to be.
Onward!

You have to take a bigger view.
It's not "what went wrong with my post and how can I fix it?"
It's "where is my thinking going wrong and what do I need to do to get a better view?"
Sometimes it's just random stuff and you're looking at what is happening today when you should be looking at a larger view like 7-28 days.
Sometimes it's because you didn't follow your own workflow and you missed a step.
And sometimes you just got the intent wrong.

Just read a post from Vitaliy, he reckons as a beginner one site is enough. I agree, then I click on this, and your bang on, it's a journey not a race. But so far I'm enjoying the journey. I can't believe how much I've learned since I joined, who knew I could imbed a video, certainly not me.
