Just DECIDE to Do It

Hey,

“There’s no middle-class in internet marketing.”

Why doesn’t everyone make a lot of money online?

I mean there really is a drastic difference between earning a “job replacement” online income, and making a few bucks.

There are people that occasionally earn a few bucks here and there, and then there are people that have completely replaced their regular “job income” (and sometimes a lot more) with what they earn online.

Why is that?

What is stopping EVERYBODY from making a lot money online, and not just a select few?

Well, here’s how I see it..

At one end of the spectrum you have the people that will never make any considerable amount of money, and at the other end are the people that will make as much as they want, whenever they want.

The difference is not how skilled they are at marketing, or even their amount of experience.

The difference (that I can tell) is that the big money earners have absolutely NO FEAR when it comes to building a business, making sales, getting new business, and making as much money as they want. They just go and do it, no questions asked.

.. while the rest are content to just talk about success, think about success, dream about success, but not REALLY want to have that success – or have to deal with that success.

make-a-decision

“What if I actually make some sales?”

“What if I have to communicate with more people?”

“What do I do with the money I earn?”

.. and then if they do see some kind of success they shy away from it and lose that success to their own fear of owning it.

So..

Which one are you?

Which one do you WANT to be?

.. really, think about it.

Which one do you think you CAN be?

What are you going to do about it?

Sometimes you have to leave your fears behind and jump in head first.

Set a goal, then go accomplish it.

Put your blinders on and don’t stop until you do.

Make some enemies along the way (it’s okay).

In fact it’s good to piss some people off while on the journey because it means you’re focused on what you want, and you’re willing to push the negativity out of the way and not dwell on it.

Just DECIDE to do it.

.. or stay where you are.

Up to you what you want.

If you lose the last game of the season, nobody gives a sh*t.

Hey..

..aaaannnndd.. I’m back.

I was out of town this past weekend, my son’s AAA baseball team (unexpectedly) made it to our Provincial Championship tournament, so I’ve been out of the loop for a few days.

They were complete underdogs that managed to win a wild card spot to the tournament. Good for them but it was tough playing the top teams on the hottest weekend of the year (so far).

Anyways..

When we got home I thought I was finally done with baseball for the season.

Apparently not.

I turned on Netflix hoping to find that one great movie I haven’t seen yet, and instead went on to watch one of my favourite movies.. which happens to be about baseball.

It’s called “Moneyball” and it’s a great sports movie, and if you’re into sports movies like me, you should book some time to watch it.

There’s a quote from the movie that has always stuck with me, because it rings true in all sports, and in life, it basically says, “Nobody remembers you, nothing matters, if you lose the last game of the season”.

The actual quote, from Brad Pitt’s character Billy Beane, I believe, is: “If you lose the last game of the season, nobody gives a sh*t.”

The quote makes total sense in professional sports. Nobody remembers 2nd place.

… and in life, I interpret it as this..

You either win, or you don’t win.

You either get what you want, or you don’t get what you want.

However, in life, there is no “last game of the season”.

You can’t just say “Oh, well, better luck next year, I guess it wasn’t meant to be..”

Life (and business) is full of a continuous stream of challenges that need to be met head on, but here’s the thing..

The only way to not succeed is if you give up.

Let me repeat that..

The “ONLY” way to NOT succeed is if you give up.

There is no failure.

Therefore, there are only 2 options:
1. Succeeding.
2. Giving up.

Every challenge you face is the “last game of the season”.

And that game has to be played over and over again until you WIN that game.

The only way to lose is if you give up, because if you keep going, you will eventually find a way to win, it’s inevitable.

So.. whatcha gonna do?

Become a Gold level GlobalNPN member, learn from me and some of the best in the industry, get the right tools for success, and win the game.. every time.
