Check out this great article, called 10 Inspirational "How I Did it" Stories about ten individuals who have succeeded in various online business ventures.

The stories range from marketing guru Seth Godin to online dating entrepreneur Markus Frind to Carlo Feliciano, an internet copywriter who shrugged at his own inexperience and jumped head first into his chosen line of work.

The post is a list with links to ten different articles, each about a different person's online business success. These are definitely inspirational and hopefully will give you the kick in the pants you need after a rough day out there on the front lines of the wild wild web.

    A good find.

    For those that haven't clicked on the link, it is 11 (10 plus a bonus one) short descriptions of success stories accompanying a link to the main story.

    Rummaging through them now (ones I have read so far are fantastic).

      Ferenc, excellent find, thanx a ton!

      Just read the story of PlentyofFish.com - very interesting how you can basically stumble through things and still make it! The founder knew less about IM than most people on this forum, I guess!

    Good find.

    99% of the people on this forum who may not come upon this post.., need to read it. The people who are chronicled, show "talk is cheap", action speaks louder than words.

    My 2 Cents: Do not be fooled by fake mentors and shiny distractions. When everyone repeats the same message, it usually means that they are mentally weak. A SURE SIGN of this is when they simply regurgitate what the rest of the crowd says...so follow your own path...a lot of people like to pretend to be, what they wish they could be. You may rest assured, that real winners know almost immediately who is legit. The people in these stories are examples of "legit".

    Emulate them and you could start making progress too.

    Really loved Carlos Feliciano's story-- and in particular his advice. His statement about sitting around "daydreaming" about freelancing -- and how he finally decided "doing" is better than "daydreaming"... Classic advice that never gets old!
