One of the best decisions I made early on in my blogging career was to join the forums at 48Days.net. I discovered the forum by purchasing Dan Miller's best-selling book, “48 Days to The Work You Love”. The book guided me to Dan’s featured site- 48Days.com and it was there; I learned of 48Days.net.
When I joined several years ago, I was amazed at
all the interaction and assistance while starting my
own journey to the work I love. My interest was self-publishing a book and it
was one of the many specialized groups in the forums. Questions were met with (free)
answers from other members and it gave me a huge list of possibilities to study.
In 2009, Kent Julian, Andy Traub and Justin Lukasavige, were exceptional with encouragement,
coaching advice, technical knowledge and their own experience. Those folks were
on the cutting –edge of marketing, content and media technology. Author/speaker
Jeff Goins was just starting his rise to fame.
For nearly a year, I got distracted and slipped
away from 48Days.net. I should have stuck around the forums and continued my
education. Like a young adult, I thought I knew just enough to get by and I was
wrong. In today’s world, change is the constant; so learning is an ongoing
process.
We are either moving forward or
moving backwards. There is no middle ground for success. It waits for no one. The minute we settle for mediocrity, success
moves on.
I returned
in 2012 and was pleased to recognize many of the same people were still
contributing and helping others. Their businesses have grown immensely over
those few years. What I love
about the members at 48days.net is their commitment and loyalty to those
seeking advice.
Dan Miller has created a friendly caring
community. Mr. Miller could charge for access to the forums and earn a generous
passive income; but he understands helping others and building a tribe is a
treasure of value for everyone involved. Dan is building a legacy one member at
a time. 48Days.net is a jewel for those seeking change.
Since returning in 2012, I’ve been fortunate to
develop friendships with newer members: Ann Musico, Caroline Gavin, Karen Putz and Jen McDonough. These ladies are successful authors, speakers,
podcasters, bloggers and coaches on the verge of taking their dream to the next
level.
I thank Dan Miller for his heart of gold and the
members at 48Days.net for their encouragement, wisdom and knowledge. I'ts great to connect with kind people who assist anyone seeking advice. The free
membership of 48Days.net is an valuable gem to finding your way!
Speaking of gems: Dan Miller and his son, Jared Angaza, have a fantastic new book out entitled: Wisdom Meets Passion: When Generations Collide and Collaborate. You may read my review here and order a copy today!
Until
We Meet Again,
