A Reminder of the Challenge:

“I will make $4000 profit in the next 2 months purely from online ventures by creating and/or providing people with products and services of value. After completion I will also donate 10% of any profits in this period to charity regardless of whether the target was met or not.” – @Daniel McClure

I have decided that enough is enough and I need to step my online ventures up to the next level. It’s far too easy to sit around comfortable with the knowledge that you are at least doing something. This however is a recipe for disaster. As I once heard somewhere if you seek massive rewards you have to be prepared to take massive action. Massive action therefore needs to be the next step in my journey and that is why I decided on the following Two Month Challenge.

“I will make $4000 profit in the next 2 months purely from online ventures by creating and/or providing people with products and services of value. After completion I will also donate 10% of any profits in this period to charity regardless of whether the target was met or not.” – @Daniel McClure

I’m not claiming to be the first person to create a timed challenge and I doubt I will be the last. I’ve certainly seen others do similar things and been inspired by a variety of people and events over time. You may wonder why I’m making it public if it’s not unique? There are two main reasons for this:

1. When you publicly announce a personal challenge you increase the chances of it happening, partially because you become publicly accountable for your results.
2. Along the way I hope to help inspire and educate others through my own adventures.  By following this challenge you may learn a learn a few things which will help you to break the barriers that you’ve been personally encountering.

Believe me when I say that I do not have a concrete plan on how I will be doing this. A few ideas that I have floating around include the use of info products, blogs and more. I am starting from zero income with this particular business wherever it may lead. There are a small list of rules that I have created to give structure to the challenge which I will release along with more information tomorrow.

I will update this post and create full rules for this challenge in time but I decided to post this before I had a chance to carry on as normal and look back on another crazy idea I didn’t follow through.

Until next time,

Daniel McClure

P.S. There is a website for this event coming soon!

I’ve been busy all morning working on a report for you all. As Social Media becomes bigger and bigger, more and more people are making a crucial mistake. Hey , even I was guilty of it until recently so I’ve got this report together to make you aware of what it is and how you can solve it.

Social Media is being talked about everywhere you go these days. Twitter this… Facebook that… Oh I’ll just post that to my FriendFeed!

When you finally manage to get away from your accounts your confronted by a mob of people telling about how you should be getting back on FriendFeed Right Now or or that there is a Dark Side of Twitter?

I’m here to confront you. Really, This may seem like a big claim when some people are calling 2008 the year of Twitter but so many people are hiding a Big Ugly truth from you. In fact you’ve probably been hiding it from yourself without even realising it.

Why Social Media is Sucking The Life Out of your Business With the Intensity of a Black Hole
