Do You Want To Succeed In Internet Marketing?
Every day hundreds of thousands of people come online with the purpose of trying to make a fortune. Many people fail at it while a few of them succeed. What is it that makes the few succeed while many fail? An observation on many marketers who succeed shows that there are many different paths to success, almost everyone of them has his own way to succeed. But there are, however, traits that are common to all of them, which bring all the successful people together.
This article outlines four magic secrets which separate those who come online to make a fortune into two groups, the winners and the losers. Follow and master them and you will definitely start making progress, slowly at the beginning and steadily gaining momentum as time passes. Without further ado, let’s get to the four magic secrets.
1. Developing The Right Mindset
Let’s first look at the behavior of a typical new entrepreneur when they join the internet marketing business. He spends hours searching the internet for get-rich-quick opportunities. He joins one opportunity half-heartedly , makes little effort in promoting the opportunity or studying the system. Making very little money out of it, he becomes frustrated and comes to the conclusion that the system he joined doesn’t work or is a scam. He then goes back to searching for another business opportunity and so on jumping from one online business opportunity to the other. He will spend lots of money on courses that claim to teach him how to make money online, those that read like “How To Make $1000 A Day……“. He will read half way through each course, he won’t implement the given strategies and ultimately gives up on the courses, very frustrated, ending the whole journey to financial freedom. Does this story tell anything about you?
To be successful you need to have a clear picture of who you are, where you are, what you want to do and where you want to get to!
Have you ever heard of the “Law Of Attraction“?
This is a law that for centuries successful people have known about and knowing it will start changing your life today. “The law of attraction states that like attracts like”. In other words it says, “You get what you think about the most.”
The subconscious mind is continually and tirelessly working to accept and attract what is in focus by the conscious mind. If the conscious is focused on desire, the subconscious mind accepts and attracts it. It has been supplied with material that is necessary to provide a constant supply of opportunities. Vice versa, if you keep thinking about of your problems, you end up getting more problems. The law doesn’t operate in any exceptional way. It’s a proven law, like the law of gravity and people have known about and used it for a long time.
To get success online you need to find out an area where you are an expert at and are passionate about.There are many paths to get to success, no particular way works for all people. Find out what is best for you based on your ability and strength and determine what you want to do and where you want to get to. Draw mindful affirmations and make your affirmations part of your system of belief. By the law of attraction, your subconscious mind goes to work to supply you with a constant supply of opportunities. Yes, it all starts by having belief in yourself, a clear plan and vision for your future. The cause and effect rule applies here, the way it applies to everything else in this world.
You have your answer in your hands, once you have belief in yourself!
2. Having A Concrete Plan
Good planning starts with picking up a real, honest and proven sytem to make money online. There are many systems out there that claim to help you make money online. Some are real and many are scams. Follow my system to find out a real home-based business opportunity. You can even go through the SFI review and join it if you like, it’s one business opportunity I always recommend to people because I’ve proved it to be real and honest. Take some time to do this, it makes a very big difference whether you do it well or not, it’s about shaping your future. Read your system carefully and come up with a plan of how to go about your business.
Your plan should be a simple one that you can implement, too many plans can be a 
hindrance to your progress.Your plan should be executable, not too ambitious. Plan to start earning small, scaling up gradually. There may be tasks you cannot do for yourself, in which case you should consider outsourcing or going into partnership with someone
else. For example, you may not be good at technology in which case you may consider hiring someone to do it for you.
Get a clear picture of what you want to do now, in the near future and some years from now i.e. you must have immediate, the mediate and long-term plans for your business.
Things may not work exactly the way you planned, it’s very natural and don’t be disappointed at all with that. If you get some favorable results, use them as motivation and increase your efforts. Learn from your failures and the unfavorable results and keep up moving on. Take problems and obstacles on your way as stepping stones on the path to your success online.
3. Taking Action
Taking action seems to be difficult to many. They’ve got all the advice, read many books, viewed many videos but going from advice to action seems to be not easy to many. You’ll hear many excuses; that something has got to be perfected before they start building a website or start an email campaign and then another excuse and so on.
Stop those excuses, start working on your business now. if you don’t have a website, start building it now. Your first site may look ugly at first, continue with creation of content pertaining to your niche all the same. You will get time to clean up your site when you start making money. Stop focusing on getting a perfect system, plunge yourself into action instead.
Make a list of actions to be taken, their order and time schedules. Work your business every day. Success comes from many small steps, so start making them now. Within a short time , you will definitely find yourself making some progress.
4. Commitment
We saw above how new entrepreneurs behave, jumping from program to program and eventually drawing conclusions that the internet doesn’t work. Yes, a rolling stone gathers no moss. It has been observed that people who succeed online are those who take their thoughts to completion and those who fail are those who are caught in vicious circles moving from one idea to the other and keep wondering why they don’t succeed.
The secret to success in internet marketing is to figure out what it is that you want to do and how to get it done. One important ingredient in getting your idea done is commitment.
Make what you want to accomplish your focal point and drive all your energy and attention towards attaining it. Concentrate on your real, narrow and straight path to success. Don’t quit your idea, NEVER! Your level of success will be measured against your ability and determination to keep on chipping away at success, day after day.
Sounds weird? Yes, it is. Once you figured out what you want to do and commit yourself, please, finish it first before turning to any other new idea. Stick to your beliefs, to your real path to success.The road is rough, you may encounter countless obstacles, but NEVER, NEVER GIVE UP! Stay focused on your narrow path to success and on reaching your ultimate goal.
