Is IM to earn serious money or just for fun

Any business can be your main income or side income based on how much effort you put into it and how good you are at it.

You can work 40+hrs a week at something but if you are not moving the business forward you will never see the income you should. On the same note a guy could be putting in 5 hrs a week but know what to do and how to do it and be making $100k/yr.

This is true in all businesses. And in the beginning you either have to have money to get a business going or time.

While the learning curve is a massive undertaking from the perspective of someone with little or no prior knowledge of basic computer skillz (*such as was so for me) -I am starting to find it both fun and capable of providing success being the reward equal to, and/or of ones efforts.

I still have 2 sources of income 1 online, and the other offline. However, with certain events recently, I am considering a transition whereby, I invest more time online, and work part-time until the online income frees me to go 100% online all the time.

It's a 'risk' and a challenge I am heavily weighing right in this very moment.

All the Best,

Once the IM bug hits you it is hard to stop...It is my biggest addiction in my life but a healthy one!

Re "tough and complex" -- the basic concepts of IM are simple. Find something and sell it, or create something and sell it.

If you're totally unfamiliar with creating websites, developing a list etc, then of course it takes time to learn the basics. But it's just mechanics, and it doesn't take that long.

I can remember when IM seemed overwhelming to me, but from what I can remember, it took less than three months for it to become so familiar that it was almost boring.

That's when it became fun.

Re "just to earn passive money or just for fun" -- you're selling yourself short. If you WANT to make a BIG income, why not set that as your goal?

It might take you years -- a college education takes years -- but what if you knew that at the end of that time, you WOULD make an income which would make your friends and relatives' eyeballs bleed with envy?

The question is: how much do you want IM success?

Think about it.

Ask questions of the Warriors who are successful.

Create a BIG goal, and some plans.

Work your plan every day.

Review your plan once a week...

Tip: SHUSH! Please don't share your goals with people outside IM. They have no clue about the online environment, and will just feed your doubts. Stay silent, stay busy, and hug your dreams.

And of course, whenever you have questions, ask the questions here.

depends how you consider it in your own mind.. If your subconscious that its for big time money that your mind will subconsciously work towards that goal... Its weird but you like almost know just what to do

In two weeks I'm walking away from a profession/offline business, which was a good job, lucrative, and fun ... but not as fun as my online business.

My online business will be my sole income source and it's now earning more than I did in my profession.

Your online business can be whatever you want ... play money on the side or scale it up into a sole income source.

IM is serious but we doing it with fun, it was the same like an offline business, we've to put our best effort for it.

I say any type of success you have in life will be fun.

Why categorize what you can earn?

If you can earn $1, you can earn $1 million dollars. Simply by repeating the process 1 million times or outsourcing to scale up your business.

Depending on how determined and focused you are, you can make a full time living online or a side income.

There really are no limits.
