I found an awesome cowboy hat recently. I decided that it would be my official YouTube Hat….at least for this video. In this video I sum up some of the last 3 months goals, and gives the readers some helpful tips. I also picked up a signed copy of “The Leap: How 3 simple changes can propel your career from good to great”. At the end of the video I talk about a new project I’m going to be working on in the meantime.

Every expert in blogging or internet marketing says that its important you don’t just focus all of your time and energy on one blog, or one niche. By having multiple pages going at the same time is gives you an opportunity to cast a wider net and reach more different people.
