OH I agree, that IS so very inspiring! My hope and faith just went from a 1 to an 8! The missing 2/10 is my missing belief in my idea, and my ability to take consistent action. I haven’t started yet. I’ve just finished making a mind map of my idea, and the things I need to get it going, what kind of content I want to offer and formats, topics, all the pieces of the puzzle (youtube, website, blog, email list manager, monetization methods over time, products I want to promote, products I may like to create down the track, social networking… etc). I think I’ve got enough to actually start finally – without really knowing what will become of it, what direction it will take once going. It might be completely different than I first thought up, but the main vision is helping myself through a really big challenge in MY life, giving myself this gift (my own ideal customer) and hopefully in the process others will hear me speak to them and help them in their life too. All the while, using my gifts and talents and doing all the things I love every day! I think I’m finally on some track – hopefully it’s one that leads to some kind of success for the first time in my 40yr long life! Errrrr, to cut a long story short, NO-REGRETS WAS AWWWWESOME! Thank you both for putting it my path!

It’s YOUR FAULT. I had ‘planned’ to do three specific things tonight. 1. Write a chapter for my first information product; 2. One hour blog hopping, saying Hi to folks, and learning; and 3. Write three drafts for when I restart my blog (and new blog ‘Crash Test for Dummies’ coming soon . . .

Then I found YOU, you evil person!

You have such an excellent blog that I got drawn in. Excellent information, and a loyal following too. You must be doing something right, and more power to you.

I have now commented on at least four posts – never done that before, and at 2.45am, I’m still reading.

Guess what I haven’t got done tonight? 1 – 2- 3.

I need a 72 hour day. Still, glad I found you. Didnt get any further blog hopping though.

Beware: You’re bookmarked, and I’ll be back!

I agree that having a plan does make a huge difference in your results. When I started applying some principles of planning my day, I was able to develop and start a rather complicated web site while I was busy learning for exams at school. Even though it may seem like planning daily activities is a bit off topic to home business, it will definitely affect the results you are getting.

Good idea – one step at a time. I started out with Rosalind Gardner’s handbook on affiliate marketing. I quickly became a Super Affiliate following her lead. I have a new post up on the blog with a sneak peek into her accounts and a link to her handbook. You’ll find that here:

I want to engage myself in Affiliate Marketing. I’m also interested with creating info products and offering services but I want to do all of these one step at a time so that I can focus on my goal.

Do you have anything in mind that you can highly recommend for a newbie like me? I’m always willing to learn new things.

What do you plan to do exactly? Do you want to get into Affiliate Marketing? Do you have a product of your own, or are you interested in creating info products? Do you have a service you want to offer?

Let me know what interests you, and we’ll go from there

Can you suggest any reading materials that I can read about online business? Or can you share any ideas about online stuffs that I must know or any other recommendation that would be helpful for me?

I know my question is quite vague. Like what I’ve said above, I don’t know where to start. Simply because I’m not sure if I’ll be needing such idea for a particular model.

That’s a common misconception, Edward. And it results in info-overload or analysis paralysis. Look at the different models, select the one that appeals to you most, or matches your idea best, and then learn what you need to know to set that up (nothing more).

If you have any specific questions, feel free to ask

I like this part –> “It took time, hard work, late nights, unimaginable frustration, long hours of research and self-questioning, failures – and for some, a little bit of therapy!”

Actually, I’m quite frustrated because I don’t know where to start. It seems like I need to know so many things before I can start my own online business. I hope I can learn soon…

Lynn,

My personal favorite quote is this:

“Internet marketing is the hardest ‘easy money’ I’ve ever made.”

I took me about 2 years until I started to see some positive results (i.e. make money.) But the most important thing I learned – like most in this business – is to never give up and keep learning from past mistakes. I know this is kind of a cheesy expression, but it’s true:

“Quitters never win and winners never quit.”

About working at home:
I was so used to working at an office that when I left my job to focus on marketing full-time, I got lazy. “Oooh! Look! My favorite movie is on cable! I think I’ll watch it for the 100th time!”

I had to create my own work schedule and stick to it – just like punching in at an office. The good point is that I can schedule in breaks when I feel I need to have breaks and not have to live with the schedule a boss gives me.

PS Love the new blog design!

Thank u very much for picking up the subject as most of the starters get in to this habit of surfing for (i)how to do things(ii)download all or any freebie offered as if there is no tomorrow and that too without knowing when/where/how to apply them (iii)check emails (iv)get in to buying spree without knowing which product is just right for them. I know I have been in to it since more than one year ! Your write-up should correct this pattern. Thanks again.

I have no idea what you’re referring to George. I haven’t changed anything on ClickNewz since the new theme was installed several months ago. But the background is still white… ? Which browser are you using, and which O/S? Perhaps there’s a glitch I’m not aware of.

p.s. I have not accepted new members for about 5 months now.
