Those Butterflies In Your Stomach Are A Good Thing...

6 replies
I buy traffic, (even the "free" seo traffic), I launch a lot of campaigns and have for years. I do my own products and CPA offers and lead gen. I've got a ton of experience, have had a ton of success and know what?

I still get those butterflies when launching a new campaign.

Yep. It doesn't go away. It's less then it was before. I don't check my stats every 10 seconds anymore, but I still get that butterfly feeling. What I've learned over the years is that the butterfly feeling means I'm moving forward, taking action and is actually one of the best feelings you can have.

If you have never had it, you've never tried yet. If you have had it but didn't like it, turn that around. It's a positive feeling because it means you took the first and took action. You put your money where you mouth is and that's not easy. A lot of people don't do that, they read about doing, but never do.

So have you had that butterfly feeling lately? If not, you need to, otherwise you're not going to be progressing at all.

    Earlier I used to get butterflies in my stomach but now I get dinosaurs as the stakes start getting higher and higher! I am sure a couple dinosaurs have made my stomach their home...lol.

    Actually it happens more out of excitement and more of an adrenaline rush than fear. Once you do a few campaigns and learn how to track and optimize them the fear goes away.

    Quality post,

    Those butterfly feeling are you growing your comfort zone, everything that is worth doing in life will stretch your comfort barriers.

    Remember the first time you hit the gym? or approached that girl? always butterflies push through the awkwardness and self doubt and start to progress, develop, become that person you've always wanted to be.

    So many people give up at those butterflies and just beyond them is success. Enjoy that feeling, it means you are heading in the right direction.
