    Be consistence in what you do and never give up in what you do even if you fail. This is my division.

    My main 'Struggle' is conquering the self doubt that arises in the times of starting the new endeavor...

    But focusing on the struggle is not what gets you through it. Focus on a solution, try it & learn from it.

    Then you grow as a human being.

    Just my thoughts...

    My main struggle is changing my mindset to a positive one. I feel I'm just one of the hundreds of thousands out there trying to make it online and I don't have that which will set me apart, which will allow me to 'make it' online. I need to start thinking that everyone who made it was at one point just like me, and by taking one step at a time, they did it. And never to give up, take that next step. Many fail at this point.
    I keep giving myself this pep talk all the time, but I still have troubles internalizing it...

    My struggle is simply time.

    Balancing my work, time for family friends, and time for my own projects
    as well as things outside of work.

    Now if there were only 40 hours per day, hmmm....

    One of my struggles was information overload. What I did was develop a plan of action to start my Internet marketing business.

    My struggle was not sticking to my aim,whenever I got something interesting I started trying out that.I failed many times but I learned a lot from there.As you know every aspect has there own pros and cons.

    To start your online business first you understand the requirements of the customers as well as you need to have patience enough becoz it is slow process and how long you stick with it.Normally people lost interest after couple of months.You need to do perfect homework before start anything.Yes It is competitive world but tell me where is not the competition? Always motivate yourself with books or any motivational videos so that you are charged up everyday.

    Best Wishes

    Don't focus on your struggles it will ensure that you feel disadvantaged and will give you excuses and a way out. Rather give yourself reasons as to why exactly you will succeed and why you ARE the most deserving person out there of your dreams!

    My struggle is being able to have the time to do a thorough job in my projects. It's not that I am bad at time management, it's just that I have a lot on my plate with a family of young children to take care of plus a host of other things.

    The way I get through problems is to try my best and stay focused. The more focused I am, the better the results in my business.

    Focus.
    Not taking responsibilities for my results - used to be one but I am getting a grip on this.

    Solution: goals you believe in, consistency and planning, believing in myself...

    A little meditation helps too.

    Nothing is hard if you know how to do it. If you don't know how to do it, you shouldn't be doing it, unless you want to put the hours into learning it.

    My problem is that I have all the ideas in the world but the attention span of a flea.

    Basically I want to do EVERYTHING that interests or inspires me. I'm a creative person. Name anything arts & crafts and I'll dabble in it if I haven't already. I also know how hard it is to make it in the arts & crafts world, or my even more loved world, the writing world.

    I also have MANY ideas for business. The idea I have currently is most profitable, so as much fun as raking in the munnies would be, it's not my passion. The reason I want to make unlimited amounts of cash is so I'll have all the time in the world to do what I love.

    The trick is implementing all the ideas. I'm bad at finishing what I start, even though I've proven to myself in the past I can do it. I guess the only thing TO do is to not get distracted, make use of the time rather than whine about it. That's all we can do, right?
