What Does It Take To Start An Online Business - 5 Things Only?
Why are we members in this community? Because we want to make money online, right? What does it take to start an online business then? Below I will list the 5 most important things I can think of.
Well, to get started it doesn´t take much, it is even free to do so here... but to start making money it takes a little bit more out of you...
Ok, first you need some material stuff.
The fundamental and ONLY things comming up in my head are:
- An Internet Connection
- A Computer (OR a phone, ipad, tablet, etc)
That´s it, Right?
Or do you think something else is needed?
Now to the more important stuff, what it takes from YOU:
- A strong will to do it (A refusing mind of givin up)
- Consistency (in Learning and taking actions on the tasks given here)
- Patience (VERY important at least your first months)
That is all you need!

You are absolutey right about that, many times they come back some months after they have "given up" to start all over.. If they would have stayed all the time they would most likely been making money already.
The good old saying "a year from now you will wish you started today" comes in good hand here, right? :)
Happy that you mention it because I agree completely that consistently is the most important part and also the hardest. It is a "disipline thing" and that is something that you can train, just like a muscle. The more you do it the stronger it becomes.
Unfortunately it also works the other way around, if you skip a day for example.. It will be easier to skip another day.. And so on...
I am absolutely sure that confidence will be built stronger and stronger the more you keep the promises you make to yourself. If you do that for a long period of time your confidence will sky rock.

My biggest problems are with the first two. If I had more of these, I think I would be a lot further along than I am.
Of the two, I think consistency is the worst for me. The head and the heart are not in the same place and I don't know how to change it.
I don't want to give up because I see the potential. I guess I just have a hard time seeing it in me. What you said to Adam makes complete sense to me, "The good old saying "a year from now you will wish you started today" comes in good hand here, right? :)" and that's why I don't want to give up.
I get you, the thing is that consistency is something that you can train yourself too. First it might be that you actually have to force yourself to do something for let's say 3 weeks... By week 4 it will go a lot easier. A month after that it is a habit. Another month after that it is your second nature.. You will not even think about it you just do it.
Nothing worth achieving is easy (at least not in the beginning).. That is actually a good thing... Do you know why? Because it means that the competition is very low... There are not many that are ready to take the action required to achieve success.. Most aren't so that means the competition is low actually.
Yet we always tend to get this twisted. We tend to think that it is so hard because of the competition (everyone want to be successful), right?
But in reality most people aren't prepared to put the work in so it actually mean it is easier than we think... There is NOT that much competition as almost nobody are willing to put in the effort
Do you understand my point?
Oh, I get the point alright and thanks for sharing your thoughts on this. You're absolutely right, a new habit IS hard to start. It's like trying to quit smoking if you can just get through the first 3-4 weeks after that it's all downhill, there is no more dependency on the chemical end, a new thing has started.
I've been at this for a year+ and I think I'm one of those that's on the edge of a breakthrough. In the past month, I've had 226 visits. I like what I do write and others must think it's good too because 83% are returning visitors.
Just got to do it, train my mind to think positive.
Thanks for the encouragement, John. It's good to have people like you out there to bounce our issues off of.
All the best and have a Merry Christmas.
