What you have to do

Hello to all!

Yesterday, I talked about irritating emails from ONE person, despite how you get them. Today, I want to talk about a dirty word for some of you: WORK.

There is no magic potion, bullet, carpet or anything that will take the place of WORK. You simply cannot go into Internet Marketing, without doing some work. It doesn't work that way.

Yes, you can waste your money on the next thing, old or not, that comes around, promising the world. Fine, it may do something for you. But NOT if you do not invest some WORK and TIME into it. Nothing on God's earth or under it works that way, I am very sorry to say. By all means, throw your money away, especially if you have none in the first place, but you will still not find that little green man under a four leaf clover who is going to grant you three wishes. After all, he WORKS  very hard at NOT being found.

There are sometimes things that fall into place very  quickly like dominoes falling, when you put a little bit of effort into whatever you are doing. Internet Marketing is one of them.

I think, personally, the best advice I have ever seen come from ANY IM expert is: Do not get rid of your day job until you have got your system at least running. This includes if you have a pile of money saved to back you up. Most of us, unfortunately, do not have that luxury. So, even if you burn the candle at both ends, work your day time, bitch about it if you must to all and sundry( but out of the boss's earshot!) and use whatever spare time that you can scrape, scrimp and steal from your day to build on your business.

Even writing one 500 word article for your blog or your business should only take you 3/4 hour, max. Use free writing. Sit down and just go with the flow, as it may be. I have mentioned this before. At least try out free-writing. It a very simple. just sit down and write/type for a specified time. It may come as gibberish for the first minute, while rusty gears get moving again, but it does work. In all the  junk that comes, you will find some good stuff. You may even be surprised at how much you can write in say, 10 minutes.

Do not go any longer than 10 minutes. Ever. That seems to be the amount of time the sub-conscious 'throws-up' anything useful before it needs a rest. Use a timer. You can buy cheap kitchen timers everywhere, and set it for 5 or 20 minutes. Then just type/write for that time, even if you have to break off when the bell goes.

It may sound tiresome and not what you expect to be told. But i cannot emphasise this enough. You must do SOME work. The only way you are going to become a millionaire overnight is win Lotto. Or buy an online business that is already making millions. And even then you need to do something to keep it that way.

This is the most honest thing you can ever be told. You MUST work. There is no way around it.
