In the online business, many times success comes in small doses. It takes a lot of time and effort to build a business that brings in a substantial income, but along the way there are many times when giving up seems like the best (or I should say, easiest) thing to do. So, what keeps you motivated? When you get knocked down, what/who makes you get back on your feet and try again?
Well I keep my self motivated by telling my self that my failures are lessons that will make a better person.
i was going to make this exact thread last night good minds think alike. ive ran 2 good businesses before which have made substantial income but sold so am now back to square one and trying my hand at the affiliate game which is pretty hard if i may say. Their are times when i feel like packing it in but the goal is what keeps me going, i want alot of money and now, the goal of a better life with massive houses, cars and expensive stuff. So yeah THE GOAL and in the pursuit of happiness.
If you're feeling disappointed and unmotivated, watch this set of videos: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XpLFq4R_StI I also find working out and taking a small break to gather my thoughts always helps
There is always someone in a worse position than you. In life you are not here for a long time you are here for a good time, always remember that.
I always think positive and that everyone make mistakes. I also motivate myself and do it with prayers.
I noticed that if I try to take care of business daily, I get burned out in a month or two... then I can't even look at it for a long time. Right now I am trying to work on the online biz only every second day - it seems to be working pretty well. Another trick is to restrict the number of times I check my online earnings every day - if I check them too much and the money is slow, it's easy to get discouraged.
