99,9% of your competitors will quit - Stay in the Game!

When I was starting at Wealthy Affiliate and building my first website, I often asked myself this question,

"There are already millions of blogs and websites out there. Isn't the competition too tough nowadays?? How could I ever succeed online?"

Many people have also asked me that same question.

However, I realized quite quickly one thing that has always helped me to move forward.

The answer is simple:

99,9% of your competitors will quit sooner or later.

Just by staying in the game and keeping on creating new content every week, you'll beat almost everyone in this race.

Even successful people and websites experience setbacks and they may drop from the game and then you can surpass them.

Have you ever felt like quitting? So has everyone else!

But if you want to get the results and win, don't quit. Stay in the game.

What does "Staying in the game" mean?

I mentioned quickly that you'll beat 99,9% of your competition just by staying in the game but what does it actually mean.

First, it doesn't mean that you just pay some money somewhere and hope that the results will magically cone your way. Buying products and services often help but that doesn't give you results if you don't do the work.

Being a member at WA will definitely help you to make money online and build an online business but your results will depend on the actions you take.

1. Staying in the game means that...

You take consistent action by learning new skills and applying them in practice day in and day out.

Did you miss a day? Don't worry, do it again next day.

Did your article fail? Don't worry, write a better article.

Did you face a challenge that you don't find a solution? Don't worry, ask the WA community, search on Google/YouTube, and find answers from people who already walked the path.

Didn't you get the results right away? Learn what should you do differently and try again until you get the results that you desire.

2. Staying in the game means that...

You stay persistent and achieve your goals sooner or later, no matter what happens.

Everyone faces some challenges. That's just life.

But next time when you face a challenge, tell yourself, "Everyone faces challenges. Some of my competitors will quit when they face this. But when I keep on going and solve this, I'm again one significant step closer to reaching my goals."

And I'd like to add.

3. Staying in the game means that...

You are always looking for ways to grow and develop.

Staying in the same level isn't the goal. Growing to the next level and always reaching higher is the ultimate goal.

Why Is This So Important?

I've talked about this topic many times and I will keep on talking about it.

One of the reasons is that it saddens me to see many people taking a lot of action and they quit just when they were about to get the results.

People with a huge potential have quit just right before succeeding.

They have learned tons of new skills, applied the knowledge and done the work. But then they face a challenge and quit. I completely understand that feeling though.

But think about it... Just a little bit more and you may have your big breakthough!

What if Michael Jordan would have quit when he wasn't accepted into the high school basketball team? Nobody would know about MJ and he would have never become one of the greatest players of all time.

(Even though I'm not a basketball fan like Kyle & Carson I find Jordan's story inspiring! hehe)

What if you quit on your goals and dreams? You'll never achieve them and the people that you were supposed to help will never hear from you.

On the other hand...

If you stay in the game... Think about once being able to tell your story. Feel the feeling that it gives. See yourself in the position that you've overcome everything and had incredible breakthroughs.

After all, all of your results will start from thoughts in your mind. So, think about thoughts that will help you to succeed.

This is for all of you (and also to me):

Stay in the game! Never quit.

All the best!
