Do You Think Persistence Is More Important Than Ability In Internet Marketing

I want to bake a cake. I can't even successfully crack an egg or measure a cup of flour. No matter how persistent I am, without basic, innate skills and a little common knowledge, there will be NO CAKE TONIGHT. Persistence without ability is totally worthless. Who doesn't know this? Only someone without knowledge or someone who is only persistent at saying things that are ridiculous and who has never accomplished anything by applying the law of persistence. I know a few people like this.

How are those websites coming along? A little persistence, might be in order. :-)

And sometimes, "Necessity is the Mother of Invention." This however, is NOT one of those times.

One should always be persistent in checking their spelling and grammar, before posting.

if that persistence does not result in continually improving abilities ..then persistence is probably not a virtue ..that will hell in gaining success.. or long term success ..

outside of working the same job for 30 years and getting a small increase in pay every year ..which is the success many people get stuck settling for ..or whining because the world where that was possible is gone .

I don't isolate traits .. every successful person has multiple traits they develop over time or abilities ..

when you state it the way you did.. you devalue abilities .. when more and more valuable skills and abilities are what will bring more success .

many of the hardest working most persistent people in the world are broke or poor .

here is the question.. if you are not building skills and abilities .. then what are you doing Persistently..

I m quoting a small part even though the whole post was truth ..or solid information .

because successes is actually a different thing for everyone there is no formula from anyone else one person can follow .. it is to late to build amazon the way Jeff bezoz .. or start the next Microsoft or apple.. and there is always the part of survivor bias ..that ignores all the people who did the same stuff but lost anyway ..

i am focusing more on lifelong success and i get good nuggest from the people here who have some wisdom .. verses the people here parroting line from some book they read or from the message the saw in some motivational speech ..

i have met several people in the last few year who had gotten rich then through health problem or some harsh life event lost it all ..and they could probably build it again if they where not dieing of something .

the only elements that have to be in the formula for someone to succeed .. is humiliation at the thought of staying poor or being poor for life ..if poverty or anything less than being rich or wealthy .. is not humiliating or traumatic enough.. people won't put in the effort to do what they need to do to build wealth or get rich .

adding this a few hours after the first separate idea

another problem with the stuff the sound good ..like be persistent .. is there is a way to be persistent that will increase the chances of success and then there is stubborn delusions.. that way goes against the i'm dream sales line. If someone want to increase their chance of building an i'm business starting with no skills or abilities .. they should expect it to take years ..meaning they need a full time job or a way to pay their bills and cover their responsibilities .. and work on their I'm dream on the side expecting it to take 2 to 3 years or more .. and that it will be a while before they can use any of the income to live on . or if they are single cut their living expenses down as much as they can ..so more of the real world income can be put in to help building their online business.

that is the the type of persistence that is a need by those going in green ..and it could be more than a few years..

where as the cut ties to everyone you know , lock yourself in your room and build your business using every waking moment for as long as it takes..is just ..blah
