The Brain Juices Are Flowing!
No I have cracked my head open but it is about to burst with ideas!
I've been busy working on my wannabe world traveling businessman site when I met an amazing guy out on the Great Barrier Reef who I also had the pleasure of taking diving.
I met a guy who runs a travel blog... I'm not going to post a link to it, but I've checked it out and it's pretty darn good. (Not as good as mine - hehe ;P wink wink) He gets 30k visitors to his site every month and has over 100k followers on Twitter.
He said he's been running the site for a little over 2 years and it's taken a lot of work to get to the point where he gets trips around the world for free just because tourism agencies want him to write about his experiences.
The advice he gave me as to "just keep at it!"
I pass this message on to everyone who feels like they aren't doing so well or having a down day.
It all pays off!
This guy told me he did 14 hour days when he first started and it took a while to get to the point where he travels all over the world now and goes anywhere he likes!
So keep at it guys! You'll find inspiration in many places, just need to keep your eyes open.
I got loads of ideas from him in just 30 minutes of chatting with him. I hope to write a post for his site and maybe even get an interview or something for my site!
Another great day diving on the Great Barrier Reef. Also met a Senator from Argentina on the boat too who has invited me to Buenos Aires. Many places still yet to travel to!

Oh wow!!! That's amazing!! Thanks for sharing!!! That's just enough motivation to help me keep up my own work!!!
Spurred me on to write lots for my own site, and now I can write for his too! Should be good to get an extra boost of traffic to my site!
Excellent advise my friend. This business does require a lot of work up front and a lot of patience to allow that success to happen. Always great when the Universe gives you a moment like this to confirm it.
Yeah definitely. There is a lot of leg work before you start seeing amazing results. But once you start getting them... They'll continue for a long time!
Funny thing is a co worker of mine is interested in what I have been up to and I was able to use your story when talking to him yesterday. After that I think he is getting the gist of how this all works now. Thanks again!
Hey Luke. I am happy you are having great experiences!. I remember we chatted about that traveler guy. I saw you article and it's awesome!
Ohh. I have some friend in Argentina. I want to visit Puerto Madero. I love Tango too. :D

Thanks Jorge.
I've spoken to that traveler guy and he wants me to write for his website. A site that gets 30k visitors per month :D
Should make some good traffic coming to mine hopefully!
Really?! Woohoo. That's great Luke. Now you it's time to shine bro. Hey you will get more visitor in your traveler site. I am sure of that. :)
