This is a very overdue report due to the fact that many interruptions such as my day job have slowed me up in my progress. Not being in a truly desperate situation is more of a handicap when it comes to taking action. Perhaps I should take a leap of faith and jack the day job in altogether and concentrate on following this coaching program and implementing the steps full time. Surely, if I believe that I will succeed, then the final outcome will far outweigh whatever I stand to lose by quitting my job now. Has anyone taken this drastic step to propel yourself forward?

Anyway, back to reporting on the task set after Module #3a, Maria Andros, “The Video Marketing Queen”.
Well, at last, I have done it! I have put my first video up on YouTube.

Setting up a YouTube account was the easy bit, I did that weeks ago. I did have some trouble getting to grips with a pocket camera that I bought last November and had not used for the purpose it was originally bought for. Now, I have made my video I am more confident about using the camera again. Because the camera has a lot of features, I did think that I should have bought a more basic camera such as the flip camera that is widely promoted. Now that my video is on YouTube, from the techie point of view, I am pleased with the video quality of the camera.

Of course it is embarrassing to see myself in the video and there are plenty of improvements that I wish I could make, but in the end, I just had to get something out there. As it was said at the beginning of this mentorship program; “don’t wait to get things perfect, just get it started”
Well, that is what I had to do in the end. I suspect there was also an underlying fear and reluctance about having to put a video of myself on the internet. Irrespective of all the imperfections I had to publish something and actually once I sat down and did it, it all seemed relatively easy. I really mucked up my first attempt after about a minute and a half, so I started again. Second time around, despite an obvious error I made, I managed to get my message out.
It was the message I wanted to get out that was more important than any reason I could think of for not doing this. Now that the message has gone out, I just have to wait and see how many newbies there are like me who will respond to my offer.

I suppose the best way for you to see what I have done is to embed a link below and let you watch it. If you do not manage to watch all 6:52 minutes then let me just say that my offer to newbies like me is that I will host your website/blog for up to three months for free. A .info domain can be bought for as little as 80 cents, so for just that outlay, it is possible to set up a website/blog and get your first subscriber to a list and make your first dollar online. Once you prove you can do this, then there should be no reason why you cannot move forward to build on to this success and ultimately create for yourself the income and the lifestyle you desire.
As ever, your comments will be appreciated about this report and what you think of my first video broadcast.
