Learning to Think Like a Giant Squid
Posted by: icjackson In: 60 Day Squidoo Challenge| Becoming a Giant Squid| Squidcology
As the primary contender in The 60 Day Squidoo Challenge, I have to be a leader in all aspects of this project – especially when it comes to lens quality. As the challenge goes on and interest grows, people will begin (they actually have started already) to look at my lenses for an example of what one should be doing. I’m no expert (yet), but I am at the head of a pack of ambitious writers and internet marketers who have committed to leveraging Squidoo to the best of their abilities.
Yikes!
Furthermore, I want to be a Giant Squid. Although The 60 Day Squdioo Challenge is about creating income on Squidoo, it’s also about promotion as a Squid for me. I wan to be a Giant Squid at the end of this challenge. It would prove that it’s possible to achieve such a rank with hard, strategic work, even in a short period of time. It would be amazing if I could pull that off – and it would do well for my income goals on Squidoo as well.
So, what do I do to ensure success?
The best thing that I could do is learn to think like a Giant Squid. I try to observe what the masters are doing (as well as what they’re not doing) and duplicate what is duplicatable. However, the squid-tuition that they have concerning what works and what doesn’t isn’t something that can be copied; it has to be applied. The mindset of the Giant Squid can be applied in the lens creation of any Lil’ Squid who is willing to grow and adapt to it.
Or so I have theorized.
So, I am on a quest for the Golden Fleece of Squidoo – the mindset of the Giant Squid.
