I like your post because it points out that people do different things on this platform, some focus on their websites and do less here and some focus trying to rank high and make lots of blogs here or both if you have a lot of free time I'm focusing on my website and the training thanks for the read 👍✨

Really like that image of the iceberg. When people see others succeed, they assume it will be easy, as they are coming in after the success, and it looks so easy and effortless. Nothing could be further from the truth. And when they don't succeed in a month, it's easy to think this it's a scam. It isn't. They're not seeing the time it took to get the traffic, get the keywords, all the frustrations and the heartache of losing ranking. They only see that the mentor is a huge success and why aren't they giving them the "magic button". Because there is no such thing. It's the little things every day, and the newbies are comparing themselves with someone who is a year, two years, 5 years ahead of them; that is, apples vs oranges. That image shows what's actually going on, not the appearance. :)

I love your ambitious goal/challenge!
I can't wait to see how quickly you crush it!!

Good message, and I really liked your image.

Good luck on 50 posts in a month...try not to lose any sleep.

Hi, Stephen

Great post and I love the image, too!

My goal was (and still is) to create a guitar website to augment all the fun I have playing music.

It's picking up more traffic at almost 9,000 visitors/month, so it might also provide me a small additional retirement income, someday. 😎

Good illustration. Look forward to the 50.

Interesting. Google update gives us more jobs to do. Best regards to you.

A very enlightening post Stephen! I wish I had the time to join the challenge...oh well, may one day soon.

One day I will take you up on one of these challenges Steveoi!

I just have too much other stuff to deal with right now...

But I wish you the best of luck my friend... you've got this!!

I love this! This reminds me a lot of my psychology classes I took in college. The same is true with the mind, or at least that's a theory by some psychologist. What we experience and others see is just the top of the iceberg. This is a great post btw! And it holds true that much of our success is due to things other people may not see!
