What Excuse are You Using to Not Improve Your Situation?

by Pete Brand

I can't tell you how many times I've came up with what I believed was an incredible idea, and either came up with a reason why it wouldn't work or simply didn't take any action toward making that idea a reality. I'm sure you have found yourself in the exact same situation. Think about how many times you've heard yourself saying one of the following statements... I am just too busy. I would love to do (insert goal here) but I just can't afford it. That may work for some people but I don't think it will work for me. or the infamous ... I will get around to it someday! I read a statement in an article earlier this year and was compelled to write it on a post it note and stick it to my desk. The statement was, "There is never a lack of good ideas, only a lack of follow through." I don't think there is a statement that could be a truer reflection of REALITY!more

Developing the proper mindset to maximize your online revenue (PART 2)

by Pete Brand

I am hopeful you've recognized the value in brainstorming and coming up with a "no holds barred" version of what you want to accomplish on the Internet. Over the years we all become conditioned to settle on our goals due to the obstacles which appear in our path. After numerous failures and rough spots we begin to arrive at the point where we think, "If I could just make enough to get by I'd be happy." Arriving at this point isn't a bad thing as long as you don't reside there for long. You would never tell your kids to make sure their expectations and hopes aren't too high, so why should you think that way about your future? Why shouldn't you be allowed to accomplish everything you dream of? The only way you won't is if YOU stop yourself from doing it.more
