I often see abilities and talent in people and ponder why it is that they themselves seem so blind to the fact and find it so hard if not impossible to acknowledge their own greatness staring themselves in the mirror when it is clearly visible to the objective outsider.

If you question a wealthy online entrepreneur about their early days', of failing to make a breakthrough If they were ever so desponded and so low in self-belief that they lost all hope of ever succeeding were left with little put this question to a previous mentor who has enjoyed 13yrs of online success to date. He said "I knew that a return to the 9 til 5 was out of the question after being diagnosed with clinical depression. I knew that my depression had been caused by feelings of being at the mercy of others and that regardless of whether I worked three times as hard or did the bare minimum to not get sacked my situation wasn't going to change. I realised that there would only ever be two outcomes;1. I get struck by lightning just before my bank balance explodes or I dodge the bolt and only experience the wealth and the laughably duplicitous nature of my bank manager who once would look down his nose at me now greeting me with a smile and handshake.

Don't feel like a fraud as placing yourself as an authority figure. If you have been here for one month then there will be many ways in which you can help a new member who started today. Remember that most people in the street cannot tell you what being an online affiliate marketer S.E.O is.

I also know that "Techno- fear" Especially in those wrapping up for the Autumn of their life. This is just fear of the unknown. I remember as a young college student the first time I entered the IT center at Aberdeen university. Over 500 workstations in an area the size of an airplane hanger. I panicked at the thought of making a fool of myself. The internet in '99 was a different entity to the one which presently greets us each day. I had no experience of running a windows pc 98, and made a sharp exit with a beetroot face. I returned to the Gigantic "Hanger" a few weeks later once I'd been acquainted with a P.C in the less public confine 's of the Queen Victoria Library.

Let me assure you that using a computer is not difficult once you know the basics. It's like anything else considered a skill in life. You have to be shown how.
