What are you afraid of?

I noticed that many of us fail to see results or success because of our fears. Fears are fine as long as you don't let them cripple you. With that in mind, check out this quote which should help put everything in perspective.

Business is exactly like learning to walk. So go out there and fall a couple of times. But keep getting up until you're able to walk, then run and then jump! But don't stop because you're afraid or you fell a few times!

Hope this makes sense and inspires you. Let me know if you like it or not. Thanks.

Great thought-provoker. We have to get up each time we fall and try, try again. I really enjoyed your baseball analogy below - as long as we're in the game and stepping up to the plate we are succeeding. So much better to be a player than a watcher.

Thanks Rick! I'm glad you can appreciate the analogy. Too often i'm seeing people coming into the game thinking they'll hit home runs all the time and when they don't, they blame the game or give up. So hopefully that analogy will strike a chord for others as well. Thanks for chiming in!

Still falling more than walking but I agree with the sentiment.

Labman, it's okay that you're falling more than walking. I bet every time you fell you learned something rather than not trying at all where you wouldn't have learned anything. It's a process. Just make sure you aren't keeping track of how much you've fallen. When we all learned to walk, we just kept falling and getting back up because we were driven. Imagine if we as kids literally kept count or cared how many times we fell before we walked or learned to ride a bike. It may never have happened. So keep that in mind. You're on the right path even if it feels like you're not!

You're very welcome! Glad you like the post!

Genius! Thank you Eddy

This is very true. Thanks for the encouragement.

You're welcome Rebbak!

Great post...you don't know until you try. If you fail, you still haven't really failed, but learned from it. You learn what doesn't work for you and if you keep trying you'll find what does work.

Thanks! I totally agree with you! The problem is that people see failure as the end when it's actually just a minor detour and you just need to re-route to get to your destination.

Glad to see you on here. I haven't seen you around since I signed up under you. I hope this does work. How and when do you know if you fell and should get back up. Kyle told me it takes a while to know if your getting results and can analyze them. How long do you wait and how much content do you add before you really know

Hey Ram.
Good to hear from you. Judging by your questions it doesn't seem like my message above got across to you.

You can't hope that all this works. It is a business and you just have to work at it until it does work. Hoping won't make it happen. So that's the first thing you have to address is your mindset. Do you believe that you can make this work? Will you work at it until you do?
Seems to me you're asking the wrong questions. There isn't a magical number in terms of content or even hours or time you put into your business.

It's just a matter of grinding away until you see the results you want but celebrating the little achievements along the way. Too often people are expecting home runs and not even acknowledging that they're in the game and the first step is to swing the bat. Then just try hitting the ball. If you strike out, thats fine. It just means you're getting closer to hitting that ball and there will be another inning if you continue to play the game. Or you can just stop playing the game and say this game never works for anyone.

So I don't really have a magical number or guideline for you as to when you'll know. But again I think you're focusing on the wrong things. But that's just my two cents.

All things take a certain time frame though. Maybe the question isn't clear. I registered one of my sites and a month later Bing still doesn't have it crawled and indexed.
I was asking you how long did it take for you to have success. I know nothing about you and how you approach things but you earn a commission off of me. Was hoping for a little mentoring. I put in 50 hours a week on my sites and that's after my 9-5 job. I know I'm doing the right things based on my training but was wondering about your goals. Should I shoot for 20 pages of content which I have in the first month. Maybe I'm asking the wrong person. Kyle says stand behind what you sell and you sold me WA and I'm grateful but haven't contacted you because I never see you here. It was a long discussion after a Webinar about how we get here and how we interact with the person who brought us. You did the work to write the content that sold me so you have earned your commission but do you stand behind the product you sold and are willing to help those you have sold to. A little disappointed but glad you answered something. I can answer all the questions you asked with a yes. I do put the time in. I do try. I know I'll succeeat some point. Thanks for the direction and answers.

Hey Ram, I sent you a private message to help answer your questions.

Thankyou very much bro , I needed that yes please
