今天在steemit网站上看到一篇文章,作者坚持两年,持续不断地输出旅行视频博客,终于小有所成,实现了边旅游边赚钱的梦想。他是怎么做到的呢?下面我将翻译其中最关键的结论部分,与大家共勉:
The point I am trying to make is that my luck began to change when I REALLY went for it. It was when I really committed to the video blog and began to put all my effort into it that I started to notice the rewards. I would happily work 12 hours days behind the laptop in order to make it work. I would share my videos absolutely everywhere, constantly thinking of new ways I could find subscribers. I employed the idea of daily gains, making sure I found new subscribers every day, in order to create a larger audience in the long run.
当我开始全身心投入的时候,我就开始时来运转了。我每天会在电脑前开心地工作12个小时,为了让视频做得更好。我把做好的视频尽可能分享到所有我能分享到的地方,并不断思索可以找到新粉丝的渠道。我坚决贯彻“每天进步一点点”的思路,确保每天可以发展新的粉丝,最终能使粉丝数达到我目标的数量级。
From my experience, that is what I would say is the essence of growth on social media –CONSISTENT MARGINAL GAINS. Making sure that you are growing every day, making sure that you are making new connections or learning something new EVERY DAY. That has been, in short, my secret to success over the past 2 years. There are always some days where you grow more and some days where you grow less, but as long as you are consistently putting in the effort every day then you will always be moving forward.
从我的亲身体验来看,只要确保每天在进步,每天在学习新东西、建立新的链接,就可以产生社交媒体中增长的根本要素----持续的边际收益。这就是我在过去两年中成功的秘密。有时你进步快一些,有时你进步慢一点,但只要你在持续地努力,你必然不断地前进。
If you consistently put your content out there then people will find it. Keep going, keep creating content and employ the philosophy of marginal gains and who knows where you will be in a years time.
如果你持续地将新内容不断上传,人们就会看到。所以请坚持,不断地产出新内容,在边际收益的作用下,谁知道几年之后,你会发展到什么程度?
Tips to remember:
Continual improvement & learning
Make an upload schedule (at least once a week, more frequent the better)
Share everywhere
Make consistent marginal gains
COMMIT.
一些小贴士:
持续的学习和提高
制定输出的计划(每周最少一次,越频繁越好)
尽可能地到处多分享
持续产生边际收益
保证坚持下去。
作者照片看到这里,我想很多朋友都会想,“这些我都知道啊”。但是,你做到了吗?曾经想学习的技能、想达成的目标,因为在途中的一些艰难险阻,就匆匆地放弃。好不容易积攒的一些“复利”,因为没有到达阈值被迅速归零。就如同一口井,还没有打到水就停止了;又换一个地点打井,这样周而复始,哪一个井都打不出水来。
好在,现在有007“不写就出局”这个组织。你只要加入进来,在7年时间内,每周就必须写一篇文章发布,并接受所有战友(组织中对007er群友富有战斗力的称呼)的监督和点评。如果不能按时完成,就会被罚款,甚至被踢出局。在这种形势下,我想你会有紧迫感吧?你不会轻易偷懒吧?反正我不会。例如我还加入了“每天不说英语就出局”的付费社群,想想自己几百块的押金,就会逼着自己每天说上至少60秒的英语,对自己的语感和知识摄取都大有裨益。
除了持续不间断地输出,原作者提到“尽可能到处多分享”,与007er的“不(要)脸精神”有异曲同工之妙。这一点,也是我要加强的。
如此坚持7年,想想你会变成什么样子呢?去南极还是什么难事吗?
