Setting Attainable Goals is truly the only way to succeed. Let’s compare it to a football game. If you focus on the end of the game you are going to lose before you even have the kick off. You have to take it play by play, yard by yard, and quarter by quarter. Yes, the ultimate goal is to win the game, but you have to make realistic decisions in the meantime in order to reach the end.

Your first goal is to make a first down, then a second down, all the time planning simply for that next step that will get you close to that first touchdown. You’re going to suffer setbacks. You’re going to fumble the ball sometimes, and lose ground, so you re-focus on the goal of making up that ground…working the ball down the field. If you are playing the game correctly, and using the correct methods and strategies for the situation you finally accomplish a larger goal… you make a Touchdown! Great!!!…but it isn’t the end of the game. Read the rest of this entry

It’s unfortunate but true, that many of those trying to start an online business will fail. A stunning 95% will fail. Why the high rate of failure? All too many cannot get out of the Employee Mindset. A plain and simple fact. Too much of the advertising in this business leads to false perceptions of Overnight, Simple, Pushbutton Success and Riches. That simply does NOT exist. Give a listen to what it really takes, and see if this is the Industry for you. An Industry of Leaders, not followers.

As a child, you had Super Powers! Literally! A child can lie in the grass, look at the clouds, and see never-ending images of sailing ships, bunny rabbits, clown faces, and whatever their whimsy allows them. A child can look out at the new fallen snow in the morning, and immediately envision Snow Forts with Walls and Turrets, and bridges, and rooms, and, and, and… A child can look at a small boat on a small pond, and see Great Pirate Ships, sailing over a mighty and endless sea, battling for treasure. They can “BE” Soldiers, and Astronauts, and Doctors, and a Martian if they so desire!

The ability to simply look at an everyday object, yet literally SEE it as something else… something BIG… something Awesome… Something Powerful! Let there be no doubt THAT is a Super Power!

But somewhere along the way someone comes up with a big ol’ chunk of Kryptonite, and ruins Superman’s Super Powers. They make his Super Powers weak, and totally ineffective. They make him “Ordinary”.

This is what happens to OUR Super Powers as well. We get a little older, and begin listening to LIFE, instead of continuing to listen to Whimsy. Our powers of imagination weaken, and become ineffective, and everything becomes “ordinary”. WHY? What is wrong with Imagination?

Absolutely NOTHING!

As a matter of fact, if you have any ambition of making a living Online, then you had better be ready to dig deep back into that vault of Whimsy, and come up with a Pirates Treasure Chest full of Creativity and Imagination! You had better find yourself a lead-lined container to bottle that Kryptonite back up, so that YOUR Super Powers can re awaken!

Does this mean that you are to go out and run your business through Childlike fantasies? Of course not!
But it does mean that you have to begin looking at your business, at your offer, at your products, whatever, and however it is that your business operates on, and find new innovative ways to market and promote that business.

There are literally Thousands upon Thousands of “new competition” entering the market place daily. If you do not stand out… If you do not stand above the crowd… If you do not find creative and visionary methods of promoting your business, you will simply be ordinary, and lost in the flood of ordinary that is surrounding you.
You’ve got to research your competition, and find ways to do things either differently, or at the very least, more aggressively than the rest.

Again, thinking back to Childhood, children run HARD! They Play LOUDLY! They are exuberant, joyful, fun-loving, and above all they are PASSIONATE about their childhood thoughts and dreams!

These are the exact same characteristics that will propel you to success in business. Hard work, Joy, Love, and PASSION for what you are doing. Without it, the rainbows turn gray, the Unicorns turn back into Mules, and your business is simply another grain of sand on the beach.

Find Your Passion! LIVE Your Passion! The result will be Abundance and Success in your Life!

Here Is To Your PASSIONATE Success!!!

Ever since the first Safelist hit the Internet, systems, techniques and strategies have continued to evolve. However there is one simple truth that will remain as long as Safelists are active online.

The truth? The key to your success as an e-mail marketer is communication. If you cannot connect with your target market then your business will suffer.

Getting results through safelists is not as difficult as it may seem. Those who struggle to get great results often blame the resource. I hear it all the time, “Oh There is TOO much competition there”, “No one ever reads the ad”, “ It’s a big waste of time”. Guess what? Those people are wrong! The numbers are there to support a great response. That puts the burden of results solely on the user. Remember the old adage, that “It’s a poor craftsman who blames his tools.” The same holds true here as well. Read the rest of this entry
