Yes Indeed,Sometimes You Have Just Got To Stop and Smell The Roses. Sometimes when blogging or marketing online you can get into a kind of trance like state.

Blogging night and day like a content machine. Having video challenges, and doing trainings for your team. A few weeks ago I joined a new program. I am really not keen on joining new programs as I have lots of my own stuff to deal with. And it can take away some of my precious time.

Anyway, because I learned a lot from this guy. Promoting his other programs in the past. And because I think he is well ahead of most marketers. I was tipped over the edge to join.

Also when it comes to content and learnings, He delivers a lot of Value.

Especially as he was offering a low locked in low membership price at the time to be a member.

The only way you can be a good teacher of things is to first be a student, and by finding the top people in their field and learning from them you tend to get some cool ideas. I happened to be in the membership forum and found an affiliate link for the program. As anything I get value from I also tend to share with my own personal team.

So I checked out the affiliate links and that was when I saw the most cool capture pages I have ever seen. I was like wow, how on earth does he do this. So I started Googling, You Tube Searches like crazy. Now I normally get things pretty fast, but this took me like three hours of messing around till i was finally at a standstill.

I stopped chasing my tail and started thinking really carefully, after multiple keyword searches I finally came across this You Tube Guru, type person, with a video and finally I got it.

In, fact two days ago I sent in a support ticket for an automated webinar software I bought. And couldn't figure it out. But finally that video answered my question for both these problems in one go.

It is very rare that I get stuck like this anymore. But thankfully I took the time out of my marketing, to really figure this one out..

As I am sure it will pay huge dividends over the next few months.

There are two lessons from this

1. The bottom line is like Henry Ford said the most valuable thing you can do is think. So make sure throughout your frantic day. You take some time out to do this, as you could end up stumbling on a million dollar idea.. It just takes a couple of great ideas to transform your income even overnight, or in a few weeks/months.

2. If you are really stuck and after asking around in the community you haven't got the answer? Then You Tube It! And try a few keyword variations. It won't always be the first one.

So take some time to recharge those batteries and get them working better than before.
