In the Morning - What Do You Ask Yourself?

17 replies
Your success or failure can and most likely will depend on which question you ask yourself 1st every morning...

Question #1

How much money can I make today?

Question #2

How can I add value to someone else's day?

Which question do you ask first?

One question will bring you success the other will not.

Are you asking the right question?

    @Zimmerp --- that's what Eben Pagan keeps saying all the time

    @alwayshome - if by website you mean the peach tree one - use an auto-responder and set up a list mate...that's a long term payday...

    Money CANNOT and will NEVER be a motivating factor for me!

    When I get up, the first thing I think is actually " Damn back hurts so much again"...LOL

    the 2nd thing I think is getting a coffee, cigs and what not... then only after breakfast, I think of what could I do today to boost my rankings in SE's...

    Yeah I'm sorry, but my success has had little to do with the questions I ask in the morning and more with something called "taking action!"

    Maybe I'm taking your post too literally, but to me this seems like silly nonsense to keep people "dreaming" instead of "doing."

    Successful people TRY and DO. It's really that simple.

    You're going to fail. If you're afraid of failure then you do not belong in the Internet Marketing Business. Period.

    I love that the first response that you got was dead wrong.

    To that first responder:

    Once you realize that by increasing the value that you provide to others will in turn make you more money, then you can stop asking how your website will make more money.

    My only question in the morning is 'where is the kettle and where did I leave my ciggies" - after that I help people, because yes I agree with Eban and others that helping others get what they want, is the way to make money in my own life.

    Your philosophy is interesting and I basically tend to agree with it.

    However, what makes you believe that by adding value to someone else’s day will bring you money? You may help many people online without making any money out of this practice.

      "Do I have to pee?" is usually the question I ask myself first when I wake up in the morning.

    I don't ask anything, I first feel gratitude, and then visualize my day being positive and that produces success in many many forms....yea, I took the post a bit too literal too.

    At my age the first q I ask each morning is "Did I really make it another day?"

    The second one is "Why did I stay up all night researching new keywords when I've got all I can handle now?"

    After a couple of cigarettes and a pot of coffee I start asking the important questions, "How can I make some money by helping someone today?"

    Holy geez. Am I the only one here that doesn't smoke?

    My first question is also usually something along the lines of either my back hurting or that I made it through another day too. Although I'm 35 so I'm hoping I gotta few more days left

    And I may ask myself: Well, how did I get here?
    And I may ask myself: How do I work this?
    And I may ask myself: Where is that large automobile?

    And I may tell myself: This is not my beautiful house!
    And I may tell myself: This is not my beautiful wife!

    Same as it ever was.
