Hey Dean, great message and to the point. Good advice for anyone starting anything really if you put it in relative terms. If you're starting a new blog and you manage to double your readers every day, or a podcast where you could double your listeners every day, anyone would kill for those types of results. I started a parenting podcast in May 2005, didn't expect much, but months later the listeners started arriving in droves. I kept with it, and the numbers have continued to grow... Suffice it to say, you can measure your success in different ways: income, followers, sales, listeners, etc.

Dean Great Job ! You are exactly right to do the video off the cuff as you say. I did a couple of videos for Affiliate Summit's mentor program, and found myself apologizing for all the "and sooo" "uhh" and other pauses. Shawn Collins from Affiliate Summit told me not to worry, that it makes it more real and is just how people really talk. Like Gary Vaynerchuk says, be yourself, if you are the dude who collects comic books, be that dude, and do it well, be proud of who you are and people can relate. And the message you gave is the one I have heard so many times in this business, patience! to add to that another message, if you fail at one idea, get back up and try something else. failing is not always a bad thing, it is a learning thing. Good luck in Washington next month, wish I could go and watch your presentation.

Hi Dean Have been follwing you for a while and the northern accent makes me feel so at home. Anyway, brilliant way to look at it as so many people want a get rich quick solution but even after 2 weeks in your scenario you only have $82 which insnt much when week 3 is 10,000 Of course it would be an amazing business if it continued to double every day but the lesson is a good one to be patient and not give up. Yours inspired Kath
