    sometimes, internet marketing can be very boring and i feel tired. but no matter what i'm going to succeed till i see results.Persistant is the keyword.
    2day just came back from a seminar .the speaker talk about the less he work the more he earn. simply because he leverage on others to do for him. hopefully i will be able to do outsource and not to have to do all the work by myself.

    I can be very tedious. It is no fun to submit 20 backlinks and only a few are approved. You have to really want to succeed to keep it up.

    8+ hours a day + commute to work + 24 days vacation a year + suit + fixed pay = boring

    2 hours a day + live where you want + time with your family + blogging in your underpants + cash while you sleep = Freedom

    The money isn't boring but sometimes collecting keywords really makes me tired and get bored easily.

    True, at least it's better than working 9-5 and being bored.

    Totally agree on this one....

    You have to look at it this way...

    No matter what, you need an income to survive and live the way you want. You can either go to a job you hate every single day for a fixed pay and work for a boss you possibly don't like or co-workers that get on your nerves, and at the same time build up someone elses company....

    Or you can work at home for yourself, choose your hours, not have a boss to listen to, spend more time with your family, and build your own business.

    While you might not "enjoy" every single moment you spend marketing, think if you will enjoy driving to a job you hate every day for the rest of your life and let others tell you what to do.

    Making money is not easy no matter what avenue you take. It's a lot more fun to earn it for yourself through your own business though.

    Leveraging is work too. Outsourcing requires constant oversight and contact with the people you work with.

    When you get bored, try a new method.

    I don't buy that and I am guessing he is trying to sell some sort of e-book about his secrets of 'lazy success' - hard work pays off but sometimes you need a little luck.

    Yes. Because Internet Marketing is boring. But think again, when you receive a lot of money from Affiliate Network or Affiliate Program, do you boring ?

    just want to share something i learn from seminar. income have 2 time, active income and passive income.
    internet income also have active and passive. affliate marketing is active, content publishing like website, product seling and online mlm is passive. so if we work more on the passive site that we set up everything at the start ,we can have passive income and less tired working on the active income side. so everybody must learn seo..

    Andy, I couldn't agree with you more. I still have my full time job (boo!), but I know once I am able to do this full time, I will be a lot happier.

    Having to go to work and do the same thing over and over each day makes me feel like the movie "Ground Hog Day". At least if I worked at home, I wouldn't have the same routine every day.

    It's a good thread . I feel very interesting online business. It's very creative work, and learn so much from the world. maybe you work too hard, then get sick of it. Hopefully , you can adjust yourself bit.
