I am a workaholic maniac, is there a guaranteed blueprint?

I already know the answer NO! No such thing as a guaranteed plan its all blind faith. The internet is so much different than physical businesses. We all battle in the same arena separated by niches and keywords.

I always did great at a job because I learned how to help the company make money and simply outworked my co-workers. I am always the hardest and fastest worker so I never have to worry about job security.

I thought that is how the internet marketing would work out for me but it did not. I can write 30 articles a day, make tons of videos but it will not guarantee money.

A while back I decided that in the meantime of providing services I wanted to build a authority site in my passion. My passion is self improvement. If you are playing the SEO game you need to build an authority site!

Sometimes when you are voicing a problem you come up with a solution. I will build a free site with intentions of starting a coaching program. I will get to the front page of Google over and over by doing detailed keyword research and sizing up competition for relevant targeted keywords.

I will continue to come to Warrior Forum to provide services but I will chase my dreams like a maniac. I have learned there is no such thing as instant results.

I have learned so much through trial and error as well as here. Just thinking out loud and wanted to add my 2 cents for the day here. Thanks for reading.

    Seen a post like this from you before - not dogging you for it. most people new in IM, myself included, want the "blueprint" to fastrack full-time earnings and erase the learning curve.

    From my personal experience, you'd be doing yourself a disfavor to keep searching for this pot of gold. In my opinion, there's a good 12-month learning curve to even be semi-functional in IM. I couldn't begin to explain the things I know today to one of my non-IM friends.

    Workaholic? Perfect! You're gonna need that. Don't give up but do stop looking for the "easy fix".

    Just trying to save other people valuable time even if its a similar theme thread. The biggest problem marketers have is that they are always learning and searching for a magic blueprint. People are asking questions here that they can find in Google in 30 seconds.

    I really don't see the point of most of these threads unless its for feedback, marketing or collaboration. Its very sad when 95% of the marketers fail. I see something really messed up with that statistic.

    If you are in the 5% than you no longer can relate even if its just a memory. For the 95%, they need a huge reality check that they have to build their freedom brick by brick.

    Most people are playing the SEO game which is a crazy game. My main point build a authority site over time in something you love and can teach. On the side provide services to the 95% failing marketers.

    There is an easy fix its just a long process of trial and error before you finally find something that works. Any marketer that has crossed over to success makes their system seem like its easy because for them it is.

    I am just trying to tell failing marketers to stop learning, searching and watching. Go take action. Turn off the emails, videos, wso and any other distractions. Its usually self doubt that keeps people searching.

    Even when you take constant action there is no guarantee. Building a authority site is the closest thing to a guarantee. Providing services and outsourcing the work is very close to a guarantee.

    Learning copywriting and creating your own products is closer to a guarantee. The authority site and mastering copywriting are both long term projects. Providing services can be started same day.

    Most people fail because they give up before their hard work pays off. Most beginners want to have money in their account 2 weeks after a launch. I'm not speaking for everyone, but my sites didn't make money for 6 months.

    I'm new to IM and I already know there is no blue print. The diversity of "blueprints" is what keeps affiliate marketing alive. Of course we would all like to make money immediately, but I agree that the learning curve is important. Once you start to figure out the mechanics IM, then you can implement your own ideas and the trial and error continues. That's partly what I love so much about this stuff, which makes me a workaholic... whatever workahol is...
