Fending Off Naysayers

So as you move forward this will probably be one of your biggest challenges in building out your business. You have to completely dive into this to make it work and as you do so, you will have plenty of push back.
I'm writing this blog post because I've seen it happen as the more serious I get at this the more push back I tend to get.
I had someone tell me that I'm a crock of shit because I'm writing reviews on products I haven't used. He then jokingly said I'm running a ponzi scheme lol.
Now, us as affiliate marketers know how silly of a statement this is. We know it is entirely possible to write a high quality, informative, and helpful review even if we haven't actually used that specific product.
We also know how many different real ponzi schemes are out there and how this is about as far from that as you can come.

That isn't the point of this post, though. The point of this post is to point out that you will CONTINUALLY get push back as you do your online adventure. It is just how it is. There is no denying it.
When people see you doing something out of the ordinary, it doesn't make sense to them.
Don't worry, it isn't going to make sense for most people. Most people won't do anything besides follow the crowd their entire life, so you should EXPECT this to happen.
I'm guessing that most people here at WA are currently working other jobs while building theiir business. So you will be flocked with naysayers around you all of the time.
We've all heard the stories before of how if so and so would have listened to their friends and family and what everybody else was saying then they wouldn't be where they are today.
If you want to do great things, and you want to turn this into a real full time business then you can't listen to the naysayers.
So, in closing. Know that this is a normal part of internet marketing and you shouldn't try to avoid it or shy away from it. Embrace it, break through this and you will have nothing holding you back.
Keep working at this "unordinary" thing that could potentially replace your 9-5.
