For the majority of Wealthy Affiliate (WA) members like myself, who have been here for a few years now, the answer to the question above in the title is fairly obvious. Yes, being a member of WA will give you your best chance at success, because everything you need is right here.

DO THIS AND FAIL

However there is one thing that can and will bring about your failure, if you let it manifest in your day to day business building routine. Unfortunately many people who are looking for a new way to make money, especially if they are in need of money, will not have patience.

Too many people still believe that making money online is an easy and quick process. They start looking for opportunities that promise great wealth for little effort. But in reality, though the money making process online is simple, it will not be quick and will require you to work.

You will need to have a lot of patience to experience success. First off you will need to learn the correct way to start your business. The training here at WA will give you that foundation. It really does work well, which is why so many members are succeeding here.

Secondly you will need to have a couple of goals, with your long term goal being the most important. Short term goals are great too. They help to keep you motivated on your way to your long term goal, which should be what you envision your business to provide.

THINK LIKE A WINNER

Throughout my time here at WA I have always referenced the enormous success of multi-billionaire Jeff Bezos, who started out just like you and I. He had a dream of making Amazon the number one place to shop in the world that would sell practically everything.

As the majority of you who are Amazon Associates know, you can promote 100s of thousands of products. In addition to the products sold, Amazon is offering many other services that just further its reach into the global retail market.

When Jeff started he did not focus on his short term goals, but rather those goals that would make Amazon the biggest in the world. He started his winning attitude by choosing a brandable name. Because the Amazon River is the largest in the world, it is now synonymous with the largest retailer.

IF YOU NEED MONEY NOW...GO GET A JOB

Being able to make enough passive income to pay your bills and even help you to live comfortably, will not happen right away. It probably will not happen within the first year either. You need to have the patience to wait for that success to grow and determination to make it happen.

If you are wanting to start your own online business because you think it will make you rich enough to quit your job or be a replacement for your unemployment, that is not a smart way to begin. If you need money to pay your bills because you are unemployed...get a job.

If you cannot diligently learn and then build your business from the ground up and not make any money for at least a year, then don't waste your time. Go out and find a job because you will need to invest money to make money. Fortunately here at WA you only need to invest $49 per month.


But if you can afford to spend at least $49 per month, are willing to learn and work hard at building your business, are motivated and patient, then you will know how to create a successful online business of your own. Wealthy Affiliate can help you be an online entrepreneur.

All you need to do is follow the training and to not rush through it. I always think of the example of the tortoise and the hare. Success comes from slow and steady works, not from getting things done quickly. Get-rich-quick is a myth. Be patient and you will reach your goals.

Great post and so true. No free lunches. Gotta do some work!

Thank you. No business gets to any level of success without putting in the time to grow it.

Why can't I send this post using the red mail icon above the message?

My experience is one of two things:
1) The user disabled sharing; or
2) You must send it to multiple email addresses separated by s comma, it won't work for just one.

I already tried number two. It is a shame because I would like to send some of these blogs the people who are thinking about joining wa

Not sure why it doesn't work but you can always just copy and paste the link into an email or post it on social media, as long as it is not Google+ and Pinterest.

Yes I have tried a number of those "get-rich-quick" schemes and I'm here to tell you they don't work!!!
WA is the first legit program I have come across in some time.

Tried and True

I tried a couple of those schemes too and absolutely NOTHING is better than getting an education in how to build and operate an online business. This is why WA is the place to be.

That's so true!!!

Skip one outdoor meal and you can pay for WA:) That cheap? Yes, that cheap!

Yes, or filling up your car with gas.

That's twice the cost

You are completely right in what you are saying. Thanks for sharing this great article

It was my pleasure to share this info.

Thanks boomer. Good encouraging, realistic info.

You are welcome.

Blunt and to the point - I like it, Rob!

Patience and persistence are the keywords here. :)

Yes, patience and persistence are key. No one has ever succeeded by quitting.

Boomergp - It's good to be reminded of the importance of long term goals. But the trick is to learn how to stay focused on them. Establishing good work habits and schedules is one way that I do that. Nice article!

This is true and everyone will have their own way of staying focused and motivated. It doesn't matter how you achieve that, as long as you can and continue to move forward in your business building journey.

Couldn’t agree more. Patience has been my biggest problem. Currently 5 months into my long term project and will not give up on this one. Cheers

Patience is a problem we all have, especially within the first year. Just keep moving forward and that first day of success will eventually come.

Good article well written.
Scarlett and Elaine
