Inside Pauls Brain

My mum is here on holiday for a couple of weeks and having been in the States for over 2 years now it seems funny to hear some of the expressions that my mum uses.

Can’t put a old head on young shoulders!

No mum you certainly can’t..lol

Someone on a forum said today that if they had the tools that are available today 2 years ago they would have made millions..

Would you really have?

I bought a site builder about 2 years ago and built half a dozen sites and sat back.. I could see it worked, it got me up to $1k a month very quickly, which was far above what I needed at the time to cruise along quite happily so I never bothered doing much more.

I know of people who got their adsense income up to $5k a month and then stopped building..

What about people who released one tool and make a nice chunk of change from that so they stop there. the problem is that times change, site builders become less effective, Google change their algorythm and suddenly your $5k has dropped to $100 (yes I know someone who had that dramatic a drop).

Did you save any of the money?

Did you put any of it back into research or offline product development?

What I am trying to get across is rather than counting the money you have earned today think about what you can do for tomorrows earnings, or even better a month down the line.

Learn from history but just remember there is nothing you can do to change it, you can change the future though..
