"The only thing standing between you and success is excuses!" - Gregory Lousig-Nont, PhD.

Success is a choice and we must choose to eliminate the excuses and take action today! So many times we we make excuses because we feel we must study to perfection or make sure all our "ducks are in a row." The result then becomes a habit of procrastination. Ultimately frustration and blame sets in and we quit before we ever begin.

Don't let excuses stand between you and success. Know that no matter who you are or where you come from, you can succeed. Success takes discipline and consistent action. No one can build your network marketing business for you.

One very important piece to the network marketing puzzle for me was to make a commitment to myself and for me to understand that failure and challenges are all a part of becoming a success. Every great leader has been through multiple challenges and has fallen down many times on the road to success in network marketing. I realized this and conditioned myself to have a sustainable motivation... which has been a powerful driving force. I still have challenges and failures but I don't make excuses, I take consistent action.

I want you to know you are no different than me. Eliminate your excuses by taking action every day. It will be very important to get weekly coaching with your upline to help you stay on track. Always work from a plan and realize you don't have to get it right, you just have to get it going.

TIP - You can't make money and excuses at the same time.

NOTE: Success requires a sustainable motivation. A sustainable motivation is like the Energizer battery... "it keeps you going, and going, and going!" Having a sustainable motivation will allow you to overcome the ups and downs of building your own business without getting derailed from moving toward your main objective. Begin developing your sustainable motivation today by reading at least ten minutes a day. Read something uplifting and positive!

Can you Make Money Online?

Copyright © 2006, Chris Stirling

It seems that these days everybody claims they are making money online. In reality, what works for some does not work for everybody. Some of the so-called easy ways to make money online don't work at all, and many ideas are not for everyone. Who is making money online?

Some people are making money with websites. Quite a bit of money can be made through selling products or information. Affiliate programs offer another source of income. To make money with websites, you have to learn how to market them. You can't make money online if potential customers can't find you.

Freelance workers are making money online. This group includes freelance writers, graphic artists, typists, accountants, web designers, and just about any other freelance service you can think of. There are boards devoted to freelance jobs, including some sites that allow freelancers to bid on projects. Web designers and content writers can make quite a bit of money.

There are people making money online through auction sites. Some supplement the auction site with a storefront. Though it is possible to make quite a bit of money this way, it is best to start small while learning the ropes. Items to sell on auction sites can be bought cheaply at places like rummage sales and clearance sales.

Many people can make money online. Some make quite a good income. Don't be fooled into thinking it's easy income. After you choose a way to make money online you must then take time to research the best way to get customers. It's not always easy, but if it works for you, you'll be glad you found a way to make money online.

10 Secrets For Mining Network Marketing Gold
by John Colanzi

Network Marketing. You either love it or you hate it. There's no in between.

I tried it off and on over the years and I always ended up running into a brick wall.

Why?

Because what the "Heavy Hitters" do is vastly different from what they teach.

Are they trying to lie to you?

Mislead you?

Maybe some are, but maybe they're just repeating what their sponsors told them. So let's forget the scripts.

In the words of Pink Floyd, I want to "Tear Down The Wall!"

Secret # 1

Network Marketing is a business!

Forget about "Getting Rich Quick!" If you're looking to "Get Rich Quick," you better take some heavy risks or be awfully lucky, because this business, like any other business takes time and hard work. No way around it.

Secret # 2

An Ezine is essential.

There's no secret that the network marketers making the most profits have the largest lists. The quickest way to build your list and keep in constant contact with
your prospects is to publish an ezine.

Secret # 3

Free is the most powerful word on the internet.

Freebies are the best ways to generate leads and build your list.

Free reports, free eBooks, free software, use any or all of these to gather email addresses and your list will build in no time.

Make sure you have a method of capturing email addresses. Always make sure the prospect leaves their address in return for the freebie.

Secret # 4

Start your own article campaign.

Articles have been the backbone of my business. My message reaches more readers every week than I could ever attempt to contact on my own.

They are the most viral method of free promotion and will brand you instantly as an expert.

Secret # 5

Build a theme oriented site.

You can build a site geared around your network marketing program in specific or m.lm in general.

If you'd like to build a larger prospect base you can do what I do and build a theme oriented site geared toward opportunity seekers in general.

Secret # 6

You must make a 1 year commitment!

Patience is the key. It takes about 1 year before true "Geometric Progression" begins to take place. It's no coincidence that:

* Most network marketers quit within the first year.

* Most network marketers fail.

* Network marketers that stick it out for a year or more usually end up becoming the new "Heavy Hitters."

Secret # 7

Build your downline wide fast!

Make a commitment to recruit a new member into your first level on a daily basis. There are two major resons for doing this.

A. Momentum is a key factor in keeping you dedicated to your efforts.

B. Only about 5% of your frontline members will contribute to building your downline.

Secret # 8

The majority of your time should be spent recruiting.

This fits in with Rule #3. Most programs tell you to spend your time training your downline to duplicate your efforts.

Guess What?

We're all unique.

* Some network marketers build downlines mailing postcards.

* Some are strong in getting top search engine placement

* I enjoy using classifieds and email.

You can't force your downline to be you, you can only help them build their own system.

You'll also get a major headache trying to work with the 95% that aren't going to do anything.

Offer your help and those that are serious will contact you.

Secret # 9

There is no real secret to a large downline!

The "Gurus" didn't build those large downlines. They're no different than you or I.

Stop The Presses!

If they didn't build their downline, who did?

Patience + Geometric Progression!

99% of a large downline is built by giving "Geometric Progression" time to do its work!

So if you want to be a network marketing "Heavy Hitter," get out there and start recruiting.

Secret # 10

Diversify for even greater profits.

Once you've developed your downline and your contact list, you can maximize your profits by diversifying.

Multiple streams of income will take you to the next level and your monthly income will continue to grow.

You can diversify by:

A. Adding more programs.

B. Adding webmaster tools such as autoresponders and hosting.

C. Adding informational products and programs.

D. Adding time saving software.

When you diversify, think in terms of related goods and services that will benefit your downline.

Follow these 10 rules and you'll be mining network marketing gold.
