20 Reasons Why You Can't Make Money!

Discussion in 'General Business' started by Seqqa, Apr 27, 2011.

    So you're struggling to make money on the internet and you have no idea why. Here's 20 reasons why.

    1. You're just generally a dumbass.

    2. You have little or no business acumen.

    3. You don't really understand what you're doing.

    4. You're gambling and not investing

    5. Your personal creativity level is zero, and have to follow others who are creative.

    6. You spend to much time reading and not enough of the doing.

    7. You've invented a solution to a problem that doesn’t exist.

    8. You just don't think like successful people do.

    9. You're lazy, have a low self-esteem and are totally none self motivated.

    10. You're impulsive with decision making and its burnt deep holes in your pocket.

    11. Your not really following your passion.

    12. You can't manage risk to save your own life.

    13. You don't really know why you're doing what you are doing.

    14. You're easily influenced by others and led a stray.

    15. You're to diversified, multiple projects are distracting you.

    16. You're not running like a business, you're running it like a hobby.

    17. Your time management skills are none existent and you never get anything done.

    18. You're sensitive and easily give up when the going gets hard.

    19. You just don't plan and haven't got a game plan and a strategy set out.

    20. You're over complicating things and not keeping it as simple as possible.


    If any one or more of these sounds like you, you need to change otherwise nothing will change. I hope this can help and open some peoples eyes up.

    Number 11 and 18 are right on for most people. Because most who try to make money do it out of desperation. They need a quick way to solve a crushing financial burden and will try any get money quick method that comes along, especially on the internet. If you don't have passion for what you do, you're already setting yourself up for failure. Do what you love and it will eventually reward you financially because others will see the meat in the quality of useful product or services you create. Then there are the people who try once twice or more and give up. Who said entrepreneurship was quick and easy. Most fail the first time at trying, that's very common. Just don't give up so easily.

    Success isn't come easily, people who are intending to come in online business must have patience. It requires your commitment, passions, skills and new ideas for making handsome money.

    Number 1 on this is quite funny as it is the opening reason. But most of the others are very true if applied to random groups of new ventures.

    If you suffer from number 1, your typically going to suffer from the rest of the 19 in some shape or form. That's why I listed it as number 1.

    You hit the nail on the head with # 16! They don't trust themselves enough to take their business seriously. That's Fear all the way!

    Earning Online is for all and everybody can do it. Example: One of you guys whit great skills creates a websites that produce 500 dollars per month, after that another person who dont have any idea about making money online came to you and said that it will pay 7000 thousand for your site, you will sell it and like this a non skilled person will see how your technique actually works :)

    Limited resources and competition ensure that online business is for very few people . I think less then 1% of the webmasters actually make some decent profit .

    Start not doing and doing them is normally a good start. You're not 5 years old and I'm sure you still don't need mummy holding your hand crossing the road, start doing things off your own back and don't expect other people to be helping you all the time.

    I think its a little harsh.
    Sometime people are unable to make online money because they don't have resources or don't know what to do. it takes time to learn all these things are there are so many scams as well.
