Let’s Face It: Are You Really Trying to Make Money Online?
Hey everyone, sorry about the problems with my blog. WordPress sorta spazzed out
Today I want to touch base on the issue of effort. There’s a certain amount that has to be exerted if you really want to make money online, and let’s face it: 90% of the people “trying to make money online” aren’t exactly “trying.”
You can read all of the testimonials you want. You can even find a golden plan to making money online. However, you’ll never actually earn any if you don’t put forth the effort. By effort, I mean the work. I actually had a huge realization a couple weeks ago. I’ve been working on a huge project that could potentially be worth thousands and thousands of dollars, but I had seen minimal progress. I finally figured out that I was just being lazy.
I love, love, love reading forums. One day I read a post about a guy who wrote 10 articles per day and submitted them like crazy! It made me think, “Geez, I feel burnt out after writing one article. And then I usually rest the next day! HA!” If I were writing 10 articles per day, I could be filthy, stinking, rich.
Now, I’m not saying you have to work that hard, but you should take some time to intervene your regular schedule of online work and truly ask yourself, “Am I doing what I need to do, as much as I should be?” You’ll find out that you’ve been cheating on yourself and you’re literally letting money fall through your fingers.
