Expectation vs. Pipe Dream: Where Do You Draw The Line?

They say a fundamental part of success is "expecting" you'll succeed. But where do you draw the line between expectation of achieving your dream ... and a pipe dream?

    Mike Dillard didn't make a single dollar in his business for SIX YEARS, but he stuck with it, and now he pulls in 10M a year. I'm sure there were plenty of times that he wanted to give up, and probably did, but he kept coming back.

    Just believing you're going to be successful is not enough, there has to be action behind it.

      You're right, you almost have to have fanatical actions, like a Navy Seal in training!

    Yeh, I think if you believe in something so much, then you make it work. You won't stop trying until it does succeed. A lot of the time what we try to accomplish has already been done, so we know it works (certainly in what I do online)......its just about how much work and effort your willing to put into it.
