    I needed this. I am 26 years old and since I was 20 I've been jumping from one idea to another. I want to start an SEO agency but again I've been on and off with it, not really compounding consistency. This video has given me the motivation to finish my website, write more and properly learn SEO so I can offer my services with my agency. Thanks Tim

      That's awesome! Knowing that at least one person in their early to mid-twenties got value from this video makes creating it worth the effort.
      I wish you the best of luck on your journey. Stay focused (I know it's super hard) and you'll get so much further than you think possible.

    Thank you for this video. Ohh boy I needed to hear this. I am 32 and I am just getting my ish together and I already have tons of regrets. It’s funny how I asked myself to write my 15 year old self a letter and in that letter I stated “put yourself first “ stop giving a fudge about others who doesn’t even care for themselves. You can’t save ppl who doesn’t want to be saved. I told my 15 year old self that this morning and look your video popped up.
    Now I am focusing on my company and I’m feeling so much better now knowing that I am really build this dream, I am chasing it, I am developing and building it, exactly how I’ve envisioned it as age 15.

      If only focus was something easy for 15 year olds. 😀 Good luck on your journey.

    Hey Tim. I'm glad to see you're okay. Watching your videos were a highlight of my week and, as I typically do, think the worst when someone disappears. It's funny you mention fear because I have lived in that same fear for decades myself. I'm ten years your minor but feel that I've missed out on many things for various reasons, including fear, procrastination, and in some cases, just plain arrogance. I have the stacked experience which makes me feel that I've at least done that right. But, man, that impostor syndrome still gets me. I digress. I'm glad you're back, and the video is the perfect message I needed to hear. All the best and I look forward to seeing more.

    That Focus vs FOMO is real. I wasted a little money on basketball cards and crypto and I won't anymore. I can focus on my businesses/rentals, and generate those gains seen in other investments easier and more consistently.

    • @TimConley
      @TimConley  3 года назад +1

      Five years of focus is required to start seeing the compounding gains needed to succeed in business.

    This is about the best advice I've heard for entrepreneurs in the endless sea of empty B.S. out there. Stacking skills is something I'm still learning how to approach in my (late) thirties. Now that I'm quitting my job to go freelance, it really makes sense. I'm trying to wrap my head around how to stack my skills of 20 years as a chef with going into copywriting/content writing. I also have a lot of creative skills (music and art skills) that seem totally unrelated, so it's quite overwhelming to figure out how to make the most of my experience while I learn new stuff and market myself. Would love to hear more about how to figure out who your target prospects should be in these confusing (but exciting) early stages of entrepreneurship.

    • @TimConley
      @TimConley  3 года назад

      My advice for those getting their start is to get as much experience as possible, at least for the first year or two. Then to focus in one direction. The exception to this is when they already possess significant domain knowledge in a specialty, industry or platform. Then the choice as to where to focus becomes simple. Hopefully, you have been gaining experience in copywriting/content writing while still employed. Or if you quit without significant experience I hope you have a minimum of 6 months savings and preferably a year.

    Another great video!!
    Tim, it's so great to have you back. Life happens, and you mentioned you moved states, so settling into a new state, area, home, and getting back into a routine can take time. But it looks like it paid off. You look rested and, no doubt - energized, inspired and ready to share and teach.
    I m 53 next month and can relate to what you shared.
    Thank you for having the courage to push past your fear. It just goes to show you that it doesn't matter who you are or the level of expertise you have - we all second guess ourselves. There are times when we allow fear to get the best of us. The key is having the courage to push through it.

    Tim , I've always wondered where or how did Miles and yourself first become acquainted. It's just one of those things that always interested me..

    • @TimConley
      @TimConley  3 года назад +1

      Miles and I have known each other since the summer of 2015. We met in Barcelona where I was speaking at a digital nomad conference put on by a community I’m a part of called the Dynamite Circle. The DC is owned by my friends Dan and Ian of the TropicalMBA. Then a few months later I ran into Miles & Melanie in Chiangmai where I was a guest instructor for another program they were attending. We ate a ton of vegan Thai food together and talked a lot about direct response marketing. That’s the short version.

      @TimConley  3 года назад

      I wish the scammy gurus wouldn’t advertise on my channel, but I can’t stop what ads you see. As for having ads, the small amount of money that comes it goes directly to paying a portion of my video editor’s salary.
