Hey everyone!

Yes today is the first day, of the rest of my life, & also my first blog post here.. Yay!

Let me introduce myself, my name is Paul Lear & I’m 27 years old. I have started this blog to document my journey as I learn internet marketing, from my Mentor, Alex Jeffreys. If you haven’t heard of Alex Jeffreys,  just run his name by google, & you’ll find plenty of results for him. I was lucky enough to get a place on his coaching program, Marketing With Alex 2.0.

So why is today the first day, of the rest of my life? Well the first thing Alex has taught us, is that in order to succeed we need to have a plan, & then work at that plan little by little, as fast or as slow as you want, & eventually you will see the end goal. That’s where I was going wrong before, I didn’t have any plan. So that is exactly what I have started to do, & the first thing on my list is to get this blog set up, which as you can see it is now under way. It’s far from perfect but it’s all about making a start & perfecting it later, or as Alex would say, “speed up the learning process – learn as you apply”. I’m not sure if that was his exact words, but I’ve added quotation marks anyway. :)

So I’m doing well so far today, these were my goals for today, & I only planned what I knew I’d have time to do:

Purchase Paul-Lear.com – Done

Update my domain name servers to point at my hosts name servers. -Done

Install WordPress & add a new theme – Done

Make first post on blog – In progress as I type :)

Create about Me Page – Will be done after I finish typing this post.

So there you go, not really a lot of goals to get done for today, but I didn’t start on them until 5pm, & I’ve had a few distractions. But I remained focused on what I had to do every time I returned to my desk, & I got everything done that I wanted to do. There was also a few personal things on my “To Do” list  for today as well, I’ve just not added them here as it wasn’t relevant. Now I probably wouldn’t have got all these things done if I didn’t have my main plan & daily goals to keep me on track. I know this was only a very small part of my plan, but each day I will set different goals/tasks from my main plan, as my goals for that day, the goals I choose will depend how important I have ordered them. So before I finish this post I want to leave you with these 3 quotes:

“Plan ahead for success.” ~Alex Jeffreys

“The greatest things ever done on Earth have been done little by little.” ~William Jennings Bryan

“To make something big and beautiful, we have to take small steps. Doing so, we look back to see what we did with a smile.” ~Caitlyn Mcdougall

Okay, I’m going to wrap this post up here as it is nearly 11pm & I have the About Me page to write now. But just think about what I have talked about in this post, & think about those quotes.  I will be making another post shortly, where I will be going further into what I have learned from the first module of the Marketing With Alex coaching, & how it has helped me become 95% more productive than normal, yes I was very lazy before I started being coached, more on that soon.

Until next time,

Paul.
