After a few poignant conversations this past week I thought I would express my thoughts and personal experiences my family and I have had in America. In a nutshell, you are an amazing people that does and can do incredible things and the rest of the world is looking to you for leadership…..so please stop tearing yourselves apart…..
It’s official…..the domain monetization industry is experiencing a dramatic and sustained upward trend. Believe it or not, this is courtesy of Google as they attempt to secure more traffic for advertisers.
I’m one of those strange people that get really excited about statistics, numbers and trying to interpret what they mean. Then again, if you’re in the domain industry then you should also be getting messy in the data….after all, that’s where the money can be found.
If you’re wondering how to understand all this data then you’ve got to go to masterclasslessons.com. I recently launched this website and it now has ten video lessons on domain monetization. Whether you’re a domaining expert of new the industry I’m sure you’ll get a lot out of the free lessons as I unpack what it means to be a professional domain investor.
I hope you have found me openly sharing about my Life Principles valuable for your own life journey. This week I discuss the one principle that wraps all the others up, and that is communication.
Each of the three principles of truth, trust and learning are largely predicated upon interacting with other people. In this video I share with you some practical communication skills that I’ve found have been really beneficial with my own relationships….I also share about some of my own shortcomings as well.
It’s so easy to fall into the trap of thinking you’ve clearly communicated and yet the other person has received an entirely different message. This can be so for personal relationships or in the office where you’re trying to move a project forward. Communication is the key to so many things in life.
I hope you’re enjoying this series on my Life Principles and that you’re getting a lot out of it.
I have two things to share with you this week, the first is a big announcement and the second is the numbers are looking staggering! When I say, staggering I really meant it. There have been some massive changes in the online advertising landscape that are now flowing through to domain investors.
The big announcement is that I’ve now launched MasterClassLessons.com. Master Class Lessons is a website that will host freely available training courses and the first topic covered is “Domain Monetization”.
For many years I’ve had an ambition to release a structured video training course on “Domain Monetization” that is relevant for both entry level and experienced domain investors. All you need to do is register and you get access to over two hours of lessons that start with a bit of my own history in the industry and finish with how to effectively manage a large domain portfolio.
I plan on adding to the series and incorporating additional topics that relate to domains, entrepreneurship and life. At the beginning of this week’s video I take viewers on a quick tour of masterclasslessons.com….I hope you enjoy it!
Over the last few weeks, I’ve shared with you the principles that I try and live my life. I’ve found the “Life Principles” of Truth, Trust and Learning to be incredibly powerful but even more so the interactions between them.
In this video I explore what it means when each of the principles interact with each other. For example, what happens when truth and trust are expressed towards others? How about truth and learning or trust and learning?
Rather than be blown by the winds of circumstance, what happens to your relationships and your own character when you begin to live your life through a firm set of principles. If you’ve ever wondered what it would be like to live a more fulfilled life, then I would encourage you to watch this next installment in my “Life Principles” series.
