Why Some People Almost Always Make Money In Internet Marketing

(The first person to post the original headline that I adapted for the thread title and its author gets bonus points!)

First things first: People who are successful at Internet Marketing aren't successful solely because they're good at Internet Marketing... It takes a lot more than just knowledge.

Sure, they know how to set up squeeze pages, drive free and paid traffic, write ad copy, and organize a successful product launch, among other things, but that's just what a person can see on the outside. It's what's going on inside these successful people that really matters.

Here's what I mean:

All incredibly successful people have similar personality traits. It doesn't matter whether the person you look at is killing it in IM, running a hotel chain, or is the owner of a multi-million dollar business. All these people have things in common. Here are a few examples:

Vision. Successful people have a clear picture in their heads of where they want to be and what they want to achieve. To quote legendary author Brian Tracy, "You can't hit a target that you can't see."

Belief in themselves. Successful people TRULY BELIEVE that they can beat all odds. They do not see failure as an option. How can they, when they know that they've only failed when they stop trying? Everything else is just a learning experience. When everyone else is telling them something is impossible, successful people ignore those negative comments and keep pushing towards their goals. Which leads us to...

Persistence. Successful people pick a goal and stick to it. They don't jump from one idea to the next when they encounter a small roadblock. It's impossible to be successful without becoming a problem solver. There are going to be roadblocks on any journey to success, and if you give up because things seem too hard, you may never know that success was right around the corner. It's been written somewhere that many successful people made their biggest breakthrough DIRECTLY after what seemed to be their worst setback.

These are only a few of the characteristics of successful people.

You may be slightly disheartened after reading about these success traits, because you may feel like you don't have them, or you're missing one. There's nothing to worry about though, because they can be learned!

There is no difference between you and anyone else. Everyone is on equal footing. Every single person on this planet has the same amount of time in the day and started from the same place. Don't hold anyone on a pedestal. "Hero worship" is the fastest way to get nowhere. Until you realize that your heroes are people just like you with the same worries, problems, and challenges, you'll continue to stay just where you are.

You have to understand that you have a lot more power than you think! Once you realize this, your life will change in ways you wouldn't even believe.

As was said before, success skills are learnable. But how?

Start by reading these books that changed my life:
Maximum Achievement, by Brian Tracy
The Lazy Man's Way to Riches, by Joe Karbo
Unstoppable, by Cynthia Kersey
The Power of Now, by Eckhart Tolle

You'll know what to do from there.

And that brings us back to the title of this post: Why Some People Almost Always Make Money In Internet Marketing...

Now you know it has little to do with Internet Marketing... and EVERYTHING to do with YOU!

Remember, no matter what happens... always believe in yourself, and NEVER give up!

    Matt:

    If this was actually true, it begs the question: "Why are you spending time at the Warrior Forum?" There's nothing here to learn - either you've got what it takes or you don't.

    If success has nothing to do with Internet marketing then newbies who know nothing about IM are going to be just as successful as folks who make their living online.

    A little observation will show you the truth!

      I say near the beginning of the post that successful IMers still know what they're doing business-wise (can set up a squeeze page, write copy, etc.), but that knowledge isn't enough. Of course people are going to spend time on this forum to gain knowledge of IM - a person has to know how to create and build the different parts of the business. But it's not everything.

      Taking your point into consideration though, I've changed the word "nothing" to "little" to make the statement a bit more clear.

    I agree Matt. Everyone starts from something and every person in this world who made the trend, rules, and even the people we looked up to with respect- they all started below and they are no smarter than anyone of us. What they have in common is experience and a will to continue their goals.

    Great stuff!
