Top 10 Characteristics For Success in 2015

17 replies
It seems everyone is looking for the latest METHOD for making lots of cashola in 2015 but we hardly talk about personal characteristics.

How is it for example that two people can start in the same niche with the same ideas and equal resources but one makes it and the other does not?

The answer in most cases is down to personal character

So answer truthfully if you possess the following

1) Determination - No matter what you are going to succeed
2) Perseverance - You just keep going
3) Action Taker - you TMA 'Take Massive Action' i.e. don't procrastinate
4) Humble - You have the good sense to learn from others
5) Smart - You are a smart marketer #NuffSaid
6) Risks - You will take risks
7) Focused - You stay completely focused on a project & complete it before moving on
8) Team - You understand the power of working with others i.e. JV's or similar
9) Creative - You are full of great ideas
10) Determination again - You will stay the road no matter what comes at you!!

Any additions welcome

    This is a BIG one.

    The one thing you do need to master is how to market your business. When you know where and how to market online, your business will grow even when you are not there. You can master everything else but if you don't master marketing your business online and getting results, you are bound to FAIL.

    I think you've got them all covered.

    I guess what I would start with, and this can be incorporated into the list, is WHY you're even doing what you're doing. What's the reason you have to achieve your goal, no matter what. Like mine is my family. I'm going to be a Dad in a few weeks for the first time. I definitely have a big WHY now!

    I would add faith.

    You have to believe that you will be successful even when things aren't going your way. This is extremely difficult to do at times, but it is inevitable in order to be successful as an entrepreneur.

    There is absolutely no chance this will ever happen. Isn't that the point of this exercise, i.e. to suggest that the personal characteristics that we all have, and that are unique to us, can make the difference between success and failure in Internet marketing?

    Here is another trait that I would add that makes all the difference in how much money you make . . .

    Leverage - You understand how to incorporate automation, systems, and other people's effort into your business to multiply by many times the output that you alone can create.

    Good luck to all,

    Steve
