Work with trustable people and let synergy flow

Synergy refers to the phenomenon in which two or more discrete influences or agents acting together create an effect greater than that predicted by knowing only the separate effects of the individual agents.

Talk to people about ideas and work with trustable people. I think that everyone is the best at something. I have found great ideas talking to friends that know some specific hability and increasing the value of the idea. It’s great to get around creative people, isn’t it?

I have found success investing 8€ in two domain names registered with two separate people that know about the niche instead of registering one domain only for me. Don’t fear to talk about ideas. Some ideas may get stolen… but if you talk about ideas with the right people for sure you will found great ones, and you’ll be able to spread the work making a more complete website and letting it be known for more people.

Divide and conquer.

Learning from past mistakes

In this post I’ll talk about some of my errors in the past. I think it’s very important to use this experiences to learn and don’t commit the same errors again. Thinking positive is neccesary to succeed.

Don’t let others get you down. Many people (usually false friends) are just envious and want you to be down instead of learn from you and improve. In 2002 I was running a website about linux and programming tutorials with a PR 5 and about 1000 unique visits per day. That website generated about 120$ per month with Google Adsense and TradeDoubler. I know it was not very much, but I think it was a success since it was my first attempt to run a website in a domain. Talking with a person, he said me that websites was a stupid way to earn money because if it was possible all people would do it. In that time I was depressed for some reasons and I just let the domain expire (!). I lose years of work, hundreds of dollars and a promising website that now could be a great one.

Rather than get down, now I have learned that I can’t get down by the comments of others. You are what you think you are, not what others say you are. Get rid of all unproductive thoughts and focus on what you love.

The temptation to quit will be greatest just before you are about to succeed.” - old Chinese saying.
