90% of IMers Failed?
Published on November 14, 2010
Published on Wealthy Affiliate — a platform for building real online businesses with modern training and AI.
Been two months now that I enrolled into the Biz of Internet Marketing, and Wealthy Affiliates.
Also been reading much in IM Forums.
Fully aware that the IM journey is a hard one. I often read from experience and successful IMers quoting that 90% of people who venture into IM failed - how discouraging can it get ? Wonder where they get the stats?
Though I am now into lesson 12 of the "8 weeks Action Plan" , I must confess that I have short-change myself and skipped some of the Action List at the end of each lesson.
No worries - cos I revisit that.
I want to be the 10% that does succeed - what's the odds?
Today I wrote down 12 points on a A4 size paper ( in Big Red Font ) , paste it near my computer to kick/remind myself :
1. Attitude is everything - Persevere

4. Take my study in WA /WF seriously
5. You learn by contributing
6. Select your Biz model and set Long/ Short term Goals
7. Actions! Actions!Actions = Results
8. No shortcut to Success - so don't short-change yourself
9. Beware of Shiny Objects - they Distract
10. Don't go into Advance until you master the basics
11. Experiment with one model until you see results and profitability; then Duplicate
12. Ask for Help when needed - nothing to lose and everything to gain.
