Why do so many people fail? Read this and find out. You might be surprised that is NOT GOOGLES FAULT

I am not trying to poke fun or demean these people, I too was once frustrated when things weren't working my way. And when it came right down to it, I didn't have a real plan, and I was way too desperate to make money to realize that I was blindly flailing around in the dark.
Here comes the fun part:
There are soooooooooo many plans that work, and work well to make money online that people don't really know where to begin.
They see plan "A" where people are making a killing creating lots and lots of small micro niche websites.
They learn how to do this, and make a couple but then:
They read plan "b" that says that the small sites are out and they need to create larger more authority style websites, and fewer of them.
So they start on their first one, and start building it up, but before it really gets off the ground they see:
Plan "C"...............
This goes on and on until their brain turns to mush and they just start randomly doing things, and when it fails they look around at something to blame. Of course the most common one to blame is Google.
Now, not only do they seem to jump from plan to plan; sometimes even going back to trying out an older plan, but they jump around at different tactics all the time.
What do I mean by tactics? Keyword research, niche selection, website design, etc etc.
There are soooo many different tactics for getting things done, if it works in the plan that you are copying, then use that tactic. To be honest, all the ones that are working for their respected "creators" should work just fine for you. But the point is, pick one and stick with it. Stop floating around from one to the other because you read somewhere that this new tactic is the best.
Through years of trial and error I have tested out many many different ways of doing things, they all work. What I did do was tailor it to work best for me and my needs.
( In the end, I have created my own plan for doing things that works just right for me, and I have seen awesome results for it. Did I reinvent the wheel? No, of course not, what I did was just take variations of the things I liked best from similar plans and put them to good use. )
The main point of this is to stop looking for the new "shinies" online, stick with the plan set in front of you, and REALLY work it, you WILL see results.
So, the next time someone puts down someone else's tactics and plans of action, think twice about abandoning it if you are doing the same thing. Because if its working, then its working, there is nothing wrong with that. You really need to stat tuning out all the naysayers out there; their way isn't the ONLY way to do things.
