A lot of people have been asking me both online and offline how I've been able to create a good stream of income from the internet. These questions have led me to think about why more people aren't successful online in building an online income. And I have some very fundamental things that I think are the reason people don't succeed online. This list is not all inclusive, but they are some of the popular ones that I can think of.
Outside of scam sites, programs, opportunities, etc., there are certain fundamental reasons why people aren't successful online, here are some of what I see.
People think they will get rich overnight. Let's get real, there is no such thing as a get rich quick program and for that matter, there is no such thing as do nothing and get paid thousands of dollars programs. Yet, people want to think that it's possible, so they join every program thinking that it will be there lucky break. For those who are successful online, there is no such thing as luck! First and foremost, people have to have the right mindset when working online, you don't go to work and expect to get paid for not doing your job do you? The same goes with online ventures, treat it as though you are working a job, better yet, think of it as owning your own business!
Let's assume people understand you can't get rich overnight. The next thing is a lack of commitment. How many people do you see online, promoting and joining every new program that emerges? If a person is jumping from program to program, odds are they aren't successful. Keep an eye out for patterns, if someone is promoting something and months later they are still promoting the same thing, odds are, it is working! People need to accept the fact that it takes time to build an online income, commitment in my eyes is giving at least 90 days to a program that you choose to give the program time to work out for you (in that 90 days you need to give 110% of yourself doing the things you need to do to be successful).
That being said, it takes hard work to be successful. If you're a couch potato, like I said above, there is no such thing as do nothing and get paid. Hard work is necessary, as it is with anything in life, whether it's maintaining a relationship, dieting, athletics, hobbies, etc. Without hard work, there is no point in even trying to make money online.
You must be patient. This plays along with a 90 day commitment. Again, you won't get rich overnight online, patience and working hard comes a long way.
You also must be consistent in what you do. You can't say you commit to something, work hard for 1 week, and then do nothing and then say in 90 days that the program didn't work. That's garbage, again, if you aren't willing to work hard, commit, have patience, etc., why even bother?
I would like to think that the above is obvious, for many it is, but for some it isn't. If I can do it, anyone can. I knew nothing about marketing or making money on the internet when I first started out, but I did know that if I found the right opportunity that I would be willing to work hard at it to be successful. I can tell you that in the last 90 days I joined 1 program and committed to it, and I've been paid $2,525 from this one program alone by staying dedicated to it. It doesn't matter what program it is, you can be successful with the programs out on the internet, there isn't just 1 program that works, but if you don't stop to reflect on what I said above, you'll never have the success you want online.
