But now I hear from a marketer's list message it's because of internet marketing product bombardment, the next new shiny thing; that my lack of progress that is responsible for. I can't focus on anything. Actually things are progressing well for me personally, but I wanted to get a little closer to the core of non-progress for IM'ers as I see it and as I have struggled with it in the past. Could it be merely because we're just lazy? We try something for a couple days, no result show, then we freak out, have a meltdown and quit in total despair? Has that happened once or twice to you? The meltdown (at whatever level) is the place where the losers separate out from the winners. Sure it isn't easy to get going, but the only thing holding you back is you.That struggle with despair is really the lower part of you that identifies with failure and very much prefers to remain in a state of pity because it can get so much mileage from it. Truth is, so many times we cut ourselves off when we are just at the brink of success. I think this is because our subconscious realizes that something is about to change (for the better) and it stirs up anxiety in a desperate attempt to keep us down and in that perpetual state semi-misery. My point? If things seem to be going nowhere, do not quit, keep trying to make things happen. You need to capture some sort measure of success, hold onto it and start to build from it. You've heard the saying that it's always darkest just before dawn? Well preceding the dawn of making money online can be some of the most trying times; but you have to give something a good month of application before results may show. The making money overnight scenario only happens in the ad copy. Does this sound like desperation? Maybe you like everything to go *perfectly*, maybe if you don't feel like you're in total control you're not doing it right. After all, isn't this how your mother/father/pastor/schoolteacher/IMguru told you how to do it. I mean, you don't want to be thought of as silly, stupid, or naive; do you? Don't do it for them or their approval, do it for yourself; that way if you look like a fool on the way up, it won't matter to you that much.
