“I Suck At Everything, How Can I Make Money Online!”

stress 300x191 I Suck At Everything, How Can I Make Money Online!

Just reading that title doesn’t give justice to the way it came out of her mouth. It was like finger nails scratching the chalk board at school. Fifty different answers of how she could make money online raced through my mind as I was trying to block the words ” I suck at everything” from replaying in my head.

You see this was a free consultation I was doing for one of my potential clients. One of the luxuries of my coaching business is picking who I want to work with. Now before you turn your nose in the air just hear me out. Naturally, I interview every potential client to make sure it is a good fit for both of us. I have a list of questions I ask during every consultation ie; What’s your main goal, where do you see yourself in 1yr, what makes you happy, how much money do you have to spend on marketing, what are you really good at.. (STOP!)

Well, that’s what(we will call her Shera) Shera blurted out. I stayed quiet for 30 seconds after she told me to stop. I then asked her to explain why she thinks she sucks at everything. She goes on to tell me this very long winded story about how she has tried every possible way to make money online and only ends up spending more money then she is making. She was seriously at her breaking point.
In a nut shell all she was doing was paying for info product after info product. Consuming to much information and not applying anything she learned. This is the biggest problem for everyone who tries to make money fast online. If your reading this and that is you, please slap yourself, look in the mirror and yell “WAKE UP”.

You can buy all the training courses in the world but it doesn’t mean shit if you don’t understand what you have learned or know how to apply it to your business. You must have a clear plan on what action steps you need to take in order to see real results.

When you find yourself lost and confused that means you are not focused. Tim, how do I stay focused when there is so much information out there on how to make money online? Do one task at a time. So let’s say you just created a blog and you want to learn now how to drive traffic to your blog. As you know there are many traffic methods so you just pick one. Let’s say you pick article marketing.. then do all the darn research you can on how to become an article expert. One of my favorite places to go and I tell all my clients to hang out here every day is the Warrior Forum. This forum is the best damn Internet Marketing forum in the world! Every Guru in IM niche is there to provide nothing but gold nuggets to the community. But beware, you can’t just stroll into this community asking newbie questions or you will instantly be exiled from the community(well not really). Take time and watch how everyone interacts with each other and just soak up as much info as possible. Then when you see how the flow of the forum works then you dive in. Warrior forum is a great place to get back links and prospects clicking on those links(in your signature) when you provide great value to the community. This isn’t about forum marketing but wanted to make sure you know where you need to go to learn by the best of the best. Come say HI when you see me;)

I love taking on clients like “Shera” who have money to spend and think they suck at everything. You can tell them something simple and they think it’s the best thing since sliced bread. No no I’m not taking advantage of anyone but it does make a great success story when I transform their life and business. I don’t take on new clients unless I feel I can guarantee them success in their business bottom line. So if you want to make money online(the kind that will change your life) I want to suggest a few things.

• First take a deep breath and realize this doesn’t happen overnight and yes you are making a wise decision to give a big FU to being broke
• Find a mentor. No not your mom or dad. Find someone who is at the level of success your trying to reach(no not on your level). You must be realistic with the level of success your trying to obtain. I’m telling you if you want to make serious money online you need a mentor/coach PERIOD!
• You must set goals for yourself(hourly,daily,weekly,monthly and yearly) Without goal setting you will not be focused and without focus you will fail.
• Don’t multi-task! Just don’t do it. Exert all your energy for one task at a time.
• Visit Internet Marketing communities like the Warrior Forum to get great ideas and to mastermind with guru’s
• Don’t use drugs, stay in school and don’t cut people off in traffic.

This internet marketing stuff really is easy when you consult with a mentor, set goals and take action on a clear plan. If you need help with the above and you want to see fast growth in your bank account and business then shoot us an email at info@innercirclepartnershipprogram.com and we will put together a road map that has all the right directions to reaching true success online. Your time is NOW, take action

    Tim,

    This is a great post. I think this post will wake some people up.

    One thing that I took away from this is mindset, mindset, mindset…this concept alone changed my life.

    But a mindset change doesn’t happen overnight, it takes time. But one thing that can happen overnight, is one’s simple decision to WANT TO CHANGE.

    This is great Tim! Awesome post!

    It kinda freaks me out when I get people asking me to help them, and once I lay out a plan for them suited for their own needs, they come up with one excuse after another!

    But at the end of the day, like you said, it feels great to know you’ve helped someone who had no self esteem and confidence in him/herself!

    Great work Tim! Keep it up ;)

    P.S. Looking forward to read your next article!

    Tim!!

    LOVE the blog brother!!

    This was an AWESOME post, and speaks the sad truth of the internet marketing world. Information overload and lack of focus will destroy any chance for success in this industry for sure. As you pointed out, the only solution is setting goals for yourself and then taking focused action. And as Mark pointed out, MINDSET is critical!!

    Lookin forward to future posts bro. :-)

    Thanks Jomo!, Thanks for the comment. Check out my latest post in the Internet Marketing tab:)

  15. Tim,

    Great article, the truth here is that Internet Marketing from what I have learned is not a sprint but truly is a marathon. It can take months to get the exposure you want and you are absolutely correct in saying stick to one thing at a time (which at times is very hard for me to do) but none the less must be done. Research, plan, focus and execute.
