What Is Stopping You From Succeeding...BIGSTYLE?

    Is it lack of internet marketing education (knowing exactly what to do)

    Is it lack of money

    Is it lack of interest/desire

    Is it lack of time

    Just Curious!

    I get a lot of emails every day saying don't know where to start (start at Wealthy Affiliate or PPC Coach...places that are reputable or even check out a few of my other threads), have a lack of money (seriously just write articles for people at elance.com or do blog posts,make videos), have a lack of time (all you need is an hour of quality work a day and you will see results...hell I'm a college student and I can do this)

    At the end of the day the only thing stopping you from earning the big bucks...is YOU

    Are you taking action in addressing whatever issue is causing you not to grow!!!

    I believe it is the lack of education that is stopping people from succeeding. There are too many get-rich-quick schemes out there. It takes a lot of time to succeed so I treat online marketing like going to college for four years.

    When you worry about what other people are doing it doesn't make you any money.

    Information overload is the killer, you must focus on one subject get it as right as possible and then move on to the next, you can change things as you go along.

    Another thing I think is that people believe there is a "lazy way'' to acheive amazing results...probably why not many new people build lists...it seems like hard work...but ironically it's the easiest thing to do

    1. Effort. People are unwilling to put in effort. They are just running around looking for the quick buck. Because of this the internet is being filled with internet litter.

    2. Major business like Walmart are really restricting the balance of money transfering business to business because they are taking too much.

    Information overload and searching for the "get rich quick scheme". Also lack of knowledge and focus. It's a business you have to treat it like a business.

    There's a ton of reasons why people don't achieve success :confused: , but on the net I find that the most common factor is information overload for sure.People just need to learn to pace themselves.Learn one thing apply it then move on.

    I think for me it is seeing a huge number of possibilities and not knowing which one to go with.

    I think knowing the right methods to make money online consistently.

    It takes tons of practice to get it right everytime and make more money. Scaling operations so you make more money.
    Knowing what needs to be done to rank on the page 1 of the search engines.
    Pumping more websites out everyday.
    Learning how to manage a team effectively.

    I'm getting there but slowly. I wish I knew of a get rich quick scheme. :(

    I'm still amazed people are still looking for 'Get Rich Schemes' -- seriously? It's mind boggling, and while I love being optimistic, I guess it's inevitable to admit that human beings are becoming lazier by the day.

    Honestly, when I have a 'bad day' -- I list everything about how I feel, what happened, etc.
    What I find is that I have a lack of motivation and lost time to work due to over-researching.

    As well, when I was younger I found myself not succeeding because I was crunching too many numbers and was creating more ideas than actually taking action. As well, I stressed more back then, always feeling that I had to make $500/day or my life was a failure -- so setting realistic goals and ideals is also crucial.

    Yeah, I'd say information overload is the killer for me. I decide to try one thing and then I move onto the next without fully mastering the previous idea.

    For me, it's the ever-growing lack of giving a shit about wasting my time building links. I think it's the WORST part of this profession. It's absurd and I can't believe that it's nearly 2010, and we're still spamming links back to our own sites because search engines haven't evolved beyond that whole era!

    I agree. There really needs to be some evolution in Search Engines

    I've gotten pretty lazy. If you spend a lot of time reading, you don't realise how lazy you've become. Then when you try a method, you give up becuase you're not 100% sure in it. Then you go back to reading...

    I suffer from depression so I have many days when I can't be bothered to get out of bed nevermind work on my blogs.

    That is what stopped me from succeeding.

    I think disturbances are a common cause, such as Facebook, Youtube, forums etc.

    One of the main factors is that people don't realise that you aren't competing against your local town - you're competing on a world stage. If a few 1000 people are going after one market, what is it that you are doing that is qualifying you in the first few places?!

    I don't know if anyone on here users the WarriorForum, but a popular way to make money online (quickly) at the moment is building XFactor Adsense sites. The reason this is working for people is that they are entering micro-niches where the competition is pretty much non-existent.

    If you haven't got time to build tens of thousands of links and become an authority figure, then by applying the "XFactor method" for Adsense (or affiliate) sites with a decent knowledge of SEO and no "disturbances", you CAN make money online. The hardest work is finding these micro-niches, which ain't easy.:D

    Personally I like to try big niches as that way you can carve out a nice empire!
