If you have been in Internet Marketing for any length of time, you are going to know what it is like to get stuck in a rut once in awhile. These are the slow days. The days of no Opt Ins. The days of no sales. The days you begin to distrust your own abilities. The days when you start to wonder “Is anyone even hearing me?”

Are You Stuck in a Rut?
This is human nature, and it is also just a part of every business cycle. I have developed a technique that I use personally during these times that always seems to create that
Ah HA! Moment, and get my tire out of that ditch. It is very, very, simple, and very, very, effective, because you have to turn your focus “inward” and look at YOU rather than “outward” and looking at your business.
The first step is to simply open up a blank Word document. Then, start typing. “Type WHAT!!” You are asking. Type about YOU! Write your marketing History. Past, Present, and Future.
Sit down and ask yourself, Ok, what did I really need to know when I first started into Internet Marketing? What did I know a little about, and what was I totally clueless at. What was my mindset? What things did I believe then, that I found later where untrue? What did I not believe, to find later WAS true?
OK, that was the past. Now, where am I at in marketing today? Is my business where I want it to be? Is my income level where I want it to be? What things do I still feel unsure of? What things do I truthfully know I need to make improvements in? What am I truthfully NOT doing that I know I really should be doing?
OK, now, what do I feel I am doing right? What is working for me consistently? Where am I seeing constant growth? What am I doing now that I did not think possible 12 months ago? What milestones have I achieved? What have I truly learned?
And finally, how am I going to improve, or correct the deficiencies? What am I going to commit to doing to change the things I am currently dissatisfied with? What am I willing to do to achieve the success I want? What steps am I going to take to get there. What is my ULTIMATE goal?
The secret to success with this little self diagnosis is to not set and deliberate on it. Just ask yourself the questions in your head, and start typing the answers on that blank page. You will truly be amazed at what this little self inspection will reveal to you. I can hear you saying now, “I don’t want to type my biography up!” The good news is, you can usually do this in about 15 minutes in 500 words or less. It is no more and no less than writing a PERSONAL article meant only for YOU! Just about the same length of this blog post.
Try this technique for yourself the next time you feel stuck and need inspiration.
Here Is To Your Total Success!!!
