How I Would Document My Life

Summary

• I'd still document my journey even without current resources, doing it differently.
• Each week, I'd review my calendar to summarize key learnings into one video.
• I'd share insights gained from customer interactions that they actually found useful.
• I'd focus on my own learning experiences, not just advice for others.
• It's important to take more pictures, as they require little effort but are quite valuable in the long run.
• Looking back, I find the pictures taken when I started out are most used in my presentations and on my sites.
• The content I'd generate would be for public consumption, aiming to provide value to the audience.
• Typically, a picture of me with little means is impactful because of the contrast with where I am today – it may not have the same effect if there's no success story to follow.

How To Take Action

A good way of doing things if you're growing your business or focusing on personal growth is keep it simple. Every week, take a little time to look back at your calendar. Think about what you learned that week. If there's something cool you heard, or a tip you got from talking to customers, make a note of it.

I would suggest making a short video about these learnings. You don't need fancy equipment. Your phone will do just fine. Talk about what you learned yourself – not just advice for others. This keeps it real and more folks can relate to that.

It's smart to take more photos as you go. Snapshots of your journey are like gold coins you save for later. They hardly take time to take, so it's like a low-cost investment. Later, these pictures will show your growth and can be a big hit in your presentations or website.

Remember, the content you create is for people to see and get something out of it. If you've gotten to a good place in your success, a picture from when you didn't have much can really strike a chord with people. It shows them where you started and gives them hope that they can do it too.

Keep in mind, though, if you don't have a success story yet, focus on your progress and what you are learning. That is the valuable stuff folks want to see. So share those photos, videos, and insights, and keep them coming as you climb your ladder to success.

if I didn't have the means that I have today to document stuff I'd still document I just do it differently so first off I would look at my calendar every week and I would consolidate all my learnings into one video and then I would just say anything that I had with customers of mine that they found valuable I would share and not things that I'm telling other people to do just saying things that I learned that's number one number two is I take way more pictures cuz pictures Take 2 seconds to take and when I look at the amount of pictures that I use in my presentations and on my sites they're almost all from when I had nothing now I get zillions of pictures taking me and I use none of them the pictures I would take would be for me I think the content that I would make would be public just because it has to be valuable to the audience so like the only reason a picture of me not having anything is valuable to the audience is because I have something now if I posted it when I had nothing people would be like yes I too am poor um
