You are going through the same thing that I believe everyone goes through. I don’t know why but I guess it is something that we need to learn and become better.

If you have been trying for years without much outcome then maybe it is time to start getting serious about it. Cancel all your newsletter subscriptions, stop reading blogs and do what you know works. And do it MASSIVELY.

Also I would recommend that you stop listening to your friends UNLESS they are doing exactly the same thing that you want to do. Do not let them sidetrack you (again). You will never get ahead if you don’t learn to focus and stay focused.

For years I jumped around with anything free I could get my hands on. Nothing lasted/worked – just piles of paper that are now origami to my son.

I’m now on my first program/tool where I doled out some cash.

Okay so far but I keep getting all getting all these emails about the next big thing. I share what is happening to me with the program with some friends, only to find out that they are into IM as well (without telling me!) and end up recommending other programs/tools that are cheaper.

The pervasiveness of making money off the Internet is both it’s blessing and curse for people like me. A BLESSING as I would not have heard about the possibility of this extra income stream IM had this pervasiveness not made it known to me. A CURSE as this same pervasiveness bombards me with other tools/programs to try.

Cheers!

I’m thrilled to hear that you have found something that you have been able to stick to. It is really important for long term success. For how long have you managed to keep working solely on this project?

Sure you might learn a few hints and tricks along the way but if you have already found something that works, time is much better spent doing that instead of learning small new tricks.

I got the “hi” comment and I assumed something went wrong so yes I deleted it

Yes perseverance can be really hard and especially if you’re in the habit of product jumping. But since the product jumping discipline has been learned when we entered into this IM world I am confident that it can be un-learned as well or at least to a degree where it will no longer get in the way of our goals.

This is so true! When I started about a year ago I bought a few products and signed up to a few free courses and tried to read everything. The trouble is you can read so much and never do anything that I had to stop reading and start doing. After signing up for so many things though I kept getting offered more things and it is easy to get carried away and think you have to buy into the latest promise of riches. Amazingly I managed to hold off and promised myself that until I had tried every technique I had read about so far on my first project I wouldn’t go off and try the next big thing. I’m still not through the list and am persevering. It’s hard though to stick with it when your overnight riches don’t come flooding in!
Cheers, Chloe

If you don’t believe in yourself and in your goal it is not going to happen. Ask any successful blogger and they will tell you the same thing. Nothing happens by accident (as least nothing good).

So start believing in what you’re trying to do and then keep working at it. If you can’t believe in what you’re doing my best advice would be to stop doing it. You would only be wasting your time and feel even more disappointed when you don’t succeed.

Believe in your self or find something else to do that you believe in.

I’ll shoot you an email shortly. I know just the tip for new bloggers.
