Why Some People
Will NEVER Succeed, No
Matter How Hard They Try
by Lee Benson
After being an
online marketer for over four years, the truth FINALLY hit me. I'd
absorbed so much hype and so many worthless marketing strategies and,
worst of all, I'd seen and heard WAY too many failures to count, that
the powerful thought of realization conjured in my mind.
I had what
alcoholics would refer to as a "moment of clarity". And at the
risk of sound enthralling, my "Internet Business Enlightenment" hit me
like a brick.
What had happened?
My business
buddies had come and gone in their bucket loads. My trusted friends who
once spoke with raving ambition in their voices had died from the scene
and left me with nothing more than the memories of the hopes and
ambitions that had once powered their aura.
Metaphorically,
the Internet appeared in my mind like a ghost town. The houses, that
once provided shelter for the world's most motivated ambitions, had now
been boarded up and a "For Sale" sign hangs outside.
In literal terms,
I'd seen my "best net friends" drop from my ICQ contact list like flies.
I was suddenly noticing returned mail errors when I tried to contact my
business mates by e-mail, and the worst feelings came when I received
notifications of their intent to quit.
WHAT WAS GOING ON?
Why Did I Feel So Strongly?
To put it bluntly,
the ambitions that once were, died. My most regular contacts online had
quit this Internet marketing 'lark'.
Quite simply, they
realized the hype.
They were sick and
tired of spending endless amounts of cash on worthless marketing
techniques, wasting hours of their life on pointless promotional junk,
and getting ripped off by the "get rich quick" nature of the 'net.
They had given
Internet marketing "the finger", and in return it had given them a
bad taste that would plague their mouth every time the phrase "make
money online" was mentioned. The worst thing is, tens of thousands
of folks that I don't even know go through the same thing EVERY year.
Every search I do
for "Internet marketing" churns up 100s of worthless websites, plagued
with affiliate links, bad site design and promises of millions. The
limitations of off-line business has been removed, and so has given way
to a world of hype, scams, lies and false hope and promises.
No wonder
thousands of businesses are actually LOSING money online. It's like a
mine field. Thousands walk through the field, thousands get blown up and
disappear, and only a few people actually make it safely to the end.
WAKE UP EVERYONE!
You want to know
WHY I'm still here after this time, owning a successful business that I
run from the home office? Want to know WHY I haven't joined the rat-race
that I see clog up the roads at 9am and 5pm every day? Want to know WHY
I don't quit, throw in the towel and say goodbye to all of this HYPE?
The Answers:
1. I don't
listen to any of it! Although I'm NEVER skeptical of life's
possibilities, I am realistic. Sure, you CAN become a raving success
online. But why take advice from the selfproclaimed gurus that
haven't achieved it?
2. I keep a
VERY open mind to my own possibilities and have confidence in my own
judgments. I know that by thinking in a successful and positive
frame of mind, I can achieve it.
3. I DRIVE
myself with a burning desire of true success, and will absolutely
stick to that at all costs. My tenacity (persistence) grows every
day, I stay focused at ALL times.
4. I work like
heck and learn everything I can. Over the past few years I've
learned more than my entire school education taught me in terms of
real-world practicalities and skills.
5. No matter
what life throws at me, no matter how much the circumstances can
hurt, I stand up and say "I'm not affected". I NEVER give up. I
NEVER quit. I keep striving for success.
So What Will
You Become?
I'm going to tell
you something now that I wish I'd been told a long time ago. Internet
success doesn't come from a few search engine submissions, worthless FFA
postings and a site plagued with affiliate links. It comes from UNIQUE
ideas, with UNIQUE creations, fueled by an over-powering ambition to
SUCCEED.
You have two
choices. Join the FEW who discover that the Internet (like so many
things in life) takes hard work, smart thinking and a positive attitude
for success... Or join the THOUSANDS that follow the hype, waste time
and money, and die the Internet death.
Those two paths
await. Which route will YOU take?
Until next time,
