Today i'm going to tell you about the single most important thing
on the internet this is something that you should be actively chasing as it's
the only thing that i know of that can bring you more fortune
more freedom and more fulfillment all at the same time
now back in the day when i was working in the world of sales
one of the greatest lessons that i learned was that the relationships that
you build with people is what ends up bringing you the most
success see i would often go around
neighborhoods talking to random people about their internet that was my job
to sell tv and internet packages and most people would automatically turn me
down from the get-go most people would tell me they weren't
interested and shoot me away but i was almost always assigned to a
specific area for like three to four days which meant that you would always
find me walking up and down the blocks in that specific neighborhood and what
naturally happened was that i would see certain people again
and again as they went about their day and often times when i bumped into the
same people again i would try to hang out with them for a
bit i would sit down on their porch or on their steps and start talking to
them about random things and i did this because i genuinely
wanted to take a break from doing my rounds it
was a great way to pass some time and also to rest my legs i would talk to
these people about all sorts of things what life is like for them
what they currently do how they feel about the neighborhood
what passions they have we would often trade stories
have a good laugh and then i would go back to work
and what i found is that those that i nurtured a relationship with
would often become my customers later down the line
see after bumping into me two or three times many of them
would actually invite me into their homes to take a look
at their internet to see if i could get them a better deal
and if i couldn't get them a better deal due to their circumstances they would
often take my business card and refer people over sometimes even months down
the line after seeing this happen over and over
again i started to realize that one of the most important skills that you can
learn in the real world is this ability to
build relationships with others the reason
these people suddenly wanted to do business with me after initially
rejecting me was because i wasn't just a stranger to
them anymore i was sort of like a friend and people
naturally want to help their friends out which is why if you can do this if you
can build strong relationships with people wherever you go
then you will naturally become their most trusted
go-to guy for a specific problem which means
more business and more success for you down the line
now what does this have to do with the internet well when i first started
creating content online i quickly noticed a similarity between the
relationship that i was able to build with some of my
viewers online and the relationship that i was able to
build with people in real life it's super interesting because even
though i can't see you physically and even though you're just listening to
a recording of me speak a relationship is still being built
you're learning more about me you're learning about the way i think
you are forming an opinion about who i am and the more of my content that you
watch assuming that you like it the more i become your go-to guy for a
specific problem whether it be breaking bad
habits or making money online or even social skills the stronger our
relationship is the more you will want to listen to what
i have to say about these subjects and this online
relationship or what's often referred to as
one's personal brand is in my opinion the single most important thing on the
internet and that's because it allows you to do
something that isn't possible in real life it allows you to
build a lifetime worth of relationships in the matter of months it's almost as
if you're able to clone yourself a thousand times over and then send your
clones around the world to all sorts of neighborhoods
to interact with people and build relationships wherever they go
and personal branding is the only asset that i know of
that can bring you fortune freedom and fulfillment
all at the same time let me explain how building relationships with millions of
people around the world grants you fortune because of the
crowdfunding effect basically you're able to tap into the power of the masses
for example let's say i fall on tough times and i suddenly need funding
to help keep this business afloat if i were to ask all of my subscribers for
help for just a one dollar donation to help
support the channel and if only just one percent of you were
able to help me out i would still be able to raise around
twenty thousand dollars online influencers and people who have
successfully built up their personal brand
have this ability to tap into the power of the masses
they're able to raise large amounts of money without having to ask for much
from any single person and that's how it brings you
fortune now building up a personal brand online
also grants you freedom because the internet allows your brand to work for
you even when you don't feel like working the content
you've written or recorded is still online and will continue to gain views
every day building relationships with people around the world
effortlessly for years to come it's as if you have an army of clones that never
stop working that never get tired and to top
that off that work for free and this gives you
the freedom to enjoy life as you will no longer be forced to show
up to work at a certain time at a certain place forced to listen to a
certain superior because you are your own boss you have
an army of clones that you command and finally building up
a personal brand can give you fulfillment because it allows you to
help people on an extremely large scale if you were
to go around helping people one-on-one you could only help out so many people
in a day but by building relationships with people online
you gain the ability to help out hundreds of thousands of people
around the world with the click of a button
you can give value away for free in the form of your content
you can teach people how to fish you can better their lives and get a lifetime's
worth of work done in a single afternoon my
prediction is that all of these benefits of
building up a personal brand will only increase in the future as
more and more of the world moves online which is why it's now more important
than ever to start working on this and the great
thing is you can build up your personal brand in many different ways you can
create content in the form of videos like me
or you can write on medium you can take pictures on instagram
share your thoughts on twitter and even film short little clips on tick tock
it doesn't really matter because as long as you are creating content
and people are viewing your content you are still building relationships with
other people you are still nurturing the greatest
asset on the internet which is one's personal brand
