Why I Succeed

PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT

Over my time online I have learned that it's not about single moments that make up our success but the movement as a whole those single moments create. Here are some of the moments that are the reason why I succeed online today,

* The very first search I did online was "how to make money fast" when I first got the internet in 2000

* I tried making fake clickbank screenshots as proof for my first product, (but they were'nt believable)

* I once spent $1800 on an adwords campaign and made 6 sales of a $27 product.. you do the math.

* I have purchased over 70 wso's, countless Clickbank product's and spent thousound's of dollars and barely read the first page of all of them.

* I have spent thousands of hours of my life browsing the internet for the "fastest" and "easiest" way to make money, even some not so positive.

* I studied IM for over 9 years and took no real consistent action.

* I spent hours upon hours browsing emails, reading sales pages, looking through forums and watching youtube videos and thought I was being productive.

* In that 9 years I did nothing but be online and missed a lot of "life" because of it.

* I chased "the money" most of my life and lost track of what was really important.

* I have stumbled and failed over and over again in my search for the IM holy grail.

and because of all this....

I succeeded!

* The words Fast and Easy are no longer in my vocabulary

* Shiney things don't break my focus anymore

* I no longer fear failure but embrace it.

* I focus on delivering value and treating my customers great and NOT on "the money".

* Helping people has become more valuable to me then "the money"

* I take correct, consistent action in my business every single day and use the time I was "wasting" to enjoy life.

* Time is much more precious to me, and I make sure I don't waste any of it.

* I have built a real business online and make consistent money from it everyday.

It took me over 12 years and countless failures to learn all this but I would'nt trade any of it. Always keep going and never give up and most importantly take action. Here is a great quote to remember,

"Your Victory isn't measured by the moment, but by the movement"

All those failures were just moments in time that created and sparked a movement in my head to succeed and that movement is the reason I succeed today.

Make each moment count and you will succeed
To your success,
-Chris

If I ever succeed, I think that it will likely be because I used the right strategy, took action and never gave up along the way.

I just have to add associating with the right people to the list of reasons people (meaning me mostly) succeed.

People act like the people they hang out with. This means if you pick people who are highly motivated, take action, and have a good attitude, you have a good chance of doing the same

And of course, picking a good mentor is huge.

Thanks

Great post. Sounds like like story of my life multiplied by two

Clickbank screenshots are so easy to fake and that's why I don't believe them at all. In the few cases they are real, the money is not earned by the "loophole" but with other product sales..

Have you finally learned to fake Clickbank screenshots (on your squeeze page)? Just kidding

I'm just happy that you finally make great money online. It's a dream for me to earn money enough to quit the dayjob.

And F*** I thought I fought hard those years with almost no succeeds... Cool you never gave up!

If your heart is after your earnings or money then it will really take a long time before you get what you want. But what matters is you were able to learn that it's not all about money but it's about how your readers, customers, buyers and what not are getting the what they really need, they benefit from what you offer. At least now you know how to do things right. Keep it up.

Thanks

OP, you sir, deserve all my respect.... I can also find myself between those lines (even if not at that intensity) and I can say that I have seen both failures (lots of them) and successes in my life (a lot less, but still).

Great post my friend!

I like the point about chasing money. It's the wrong approach to have. If you have nothing but money in your mind all the time while doing IM, you'll never get too far.

I instead focus on providing value, providing a valuable service. The money is a bypass product that comes with helping many people.

Great post Chris!
It is very inspiring.
As an internet guy we usually seek for the value of money and forget the value of our customer.

Building a good client relationship and giving them the right service will make more money.

I've learned if you just do what everyone else does you're just going to blend into the crowd. That's why I started a niche with MILLIONS of customers for a product I couldn't find a solution to for over 7 years and had to find solutions through trial-and-error to... leverage your passion to help people and make money as a side effect.
