ARGGGGG! - Kick me in the .....

So in other words, you're looking for a mentor.

And you're offering what in return?

Just curious.

You need someone to motivate you??????

What's your motivation for wanting to succeed in the first place?

People who succeed in this business, are self motivators.


if you have the courses, you should begin following the step by step.

Hope This Helps!!

Kim,

Rather than going with a mentor, do some soul searching about what methods interest you. You can do this...you really can.
There a lot of methods out there. What do you want to start with?

Some of the popular methods involve:
Pay Per Click
Blogging
Article Marketing
Twitter
And others....

Think about which methods you want to start with....There is no wrong way to start. Some things will work for you and others won't. The only way you'll know is to take action. There's no magic pill and you have to put in a decent amount of effort no matter which method you start with.

This forum is a goldmine of information which can be overwhelming but if you set aside a few hours and go through some of the posts, you will find out a wide variety of methods that you can follow step by step.

No need to rush things....Do the research and then when you are ready....just....START!

naah. if you cant get going then you do not know where you want to go.
find out where you want to be, then look at the steps you would need to take to get there, and start walking.
really easy i promise.
or it is possible that the courses that you bought were inadequate.
try chris farrell or profitlance.
or pm me when i launch my flea market guide next week i will give you a warrior forum special.

Procrastistagnification is a very common and highly communicable disease. It is far worse than anything I have got and is even worse than a 'bad back' (when everybody knows you are skiving!).

So, what's the cure?

Certainly a well delivered kick up the arass might help and maybe some of the well intentioned comments above will help a little as well.

I suggest that now that you recognise the problem, it is time for you to heal yourself.

Make a time table of small items that you have to do in the next seven days. Don't get ambitious and try to build an online empire, just aim for small increments in production. Maybe your first item could be to unsubscribe from all those lists you are on. (This is Kevin's advice in his Success Manifesto and, believe me, you don't realise how time consuming your in box is and how it can con you into thinking you are working.)

The second item will be to find something that you can concentrate on and succeed at within, say, 20 minutes. Then just build by small increments.

You know what you want to achieve and it sounds like you know how to achieve it - all you need to do now is put that first foot forward and ensure the other one follows.

Think about what you want to acheive first. Are you looking for a full time or part time income. Are you willing to give up your job and start full time are are you hoping to do work in your spare time. Internet Marketing requires committment and is very very time consumsing but the rewards can be beneficial in the long term. But before you do anything think about your goals, then come back to the forum here.

This post looks like a Classified ad.

Do you need someone to motivate you, or someone to show you how to put the pieces together to make money? Or both?

Little more clarification needed.

LOL.

You mean for someone to do it for you, or where to create one?

Sounds to me like you're suffering from "information overload"...I've been there.

Chances are, if you've bought all the products, read all the books, you're just too overwhelmed to get started because there are too many options available to you.

My advice: pick one path and stick to it...see it through. You may or may not like it, but at least you can cross that off your list.

I'm trying to do it right now because I'm overwhelmed with social media: twitter, fb, blogging, forums...BLAHHHHH! So, for now, I'm just trying to tweet every day, and read through this forum daily as well...once I get in the habit of doing that, THEN I'll add facebook...THEN I'll add blogging....THEN I'll add article writing...

@Artwebster you have given me a great new word - Procrastistagnification!!

Kim, the best thing I found to get me started was the Desperate Buyers Only guide on here...there is a link for it on the forums page. It really does help you to get some focus to decide what to do. I got it a while ago and now have 3 very good blogs running and two products in the pipeline. Before this I was reading a lot of information and not taking any action.

Hope that helps!

Cheers Keith

First of all stop buying all those courses or so called little secrets or whatever.
Secondly define your goals and direction.
Thirdly (Is there such a word?) Take action and formulate a plan from number 2 above.
And Fourth - Go forth and apply yourself and the plan to a business model of your choice!

Things will start to fall in place slowlly - unless ofcourse you are so deep in IOS that you have lost all sense of direction - in that case contact me

Lol before anyone asks -

Pick what strategy you are going to do and how much time you are going to dedicate to it daily, don't buy anymore courses on any other strategies until you have finished what you are doing. Define what your rewards will be for achieving what you've set out to do and then just do it! :-)

Cookie Cutter works for the people selling cookie cutter. Everyone is not cut out for this type of work. People hate to hear that. Other people climb all over you for being "negative". But the reality is simple. While you may want to play for the Lakers you have to take a realistic look at your chances.

You have to find your own strengths and weaknesses and put them to work. Just because you have a computer and internet access doesn't mean this business is for you.

You really have to provide your own motivation.

Wise words from InternetMarketingIQ. You need to kick yourself in the butt, nobody else can do it.

This is the most important point. What do you need, and what can you pay for it (in time/money/resources/whatever)?

Motivation to work (harder) comes when you know there is
someone checking on you. At least, in my case I know I
would work harder. But when you working alone in your room
or basement, and the people around only want to know how
much money you are making, rather than asking you about
the tasks you have completed for the day, then finding the
motivation and energy to keep going becomes hard.

Exchanging emails with someone in the same field as you may
help. You can tell the person what tasks you intend to do for the
day, etc... in just a couple of lines, and that person replies you back
with a supportive reply in one or two line. So, you know there
is someone there who is checking on you.

"Procrastistagnification"

I'm still trying to figure out how to pronounce it. It is more difficult than saying, "Real Weird Round Rear Wheels" 3 times.
