Just a Few Thoughts from Me!!

Simple ways to look at Goal Setting - Don't Make it Complicated!

My Success so far

Favourite quote: “Whether you think you can, or you think you can't, you're right.” - Henry Ford

Just because you can sell something online through advertising a few products and get paid a mere fraction of your worth, is that what you really want, or do you want to be the expert in your niche, the go to person to get the job done and who has the answer to your customer's need? My answer to this question is yes and I say it's about your passion for providing great content and using your gifts.

I say monetise your gifts. What I mean by that is your passion, because if you do not, you will not survive in this industry. I have been trying for years, with some success, but not as much as I would have liked.

I am going to monetise my passion on WA because I believe in what I do and I know that I’m really good - I’m also quite a good writer. I used to be a teacher and now apart from being a psychotherapist with my own practice and I’m a local politician, but of course being a local politician is not for ever and that is why I joined WA. I wanted to get back to my passion and that is helping people.

Are you passionate enough about what you are doing to ensure longevity? Do you have the skills to teach someone to build a million pound business,? Shout it from the roof tops, because someone is looking for those exact skills right now on the Internet. They are feeling the pain of not being able to do what they need to do and that could be anything, building a website or designing a logo, or living with anxiety and just don't know where to turn for help - quite simply there are prospective customers out there willing to pay whatever it costs to do what you can, or deal with an issue that is stopping them live their lives, they are looking to buy a product - so what are you waiting for?

But, remember before you go all crazy - think about 1 thing and that is can you sell them your products or services? Because, no matter what you think just because you are at the helm of an electronic device, with a URL, without a brick organisation, you do have to build your position in the industry, but that shouldn’t be a problem if you have clear goals, and are determined to be successful and are able to instill in your customers faith that you are the expert they are looking for. You will very soon build the all important know, like and trust factor. My mantra in my business, ensure that no matter what you do, your customer gets to know, like and trust you. Please don't be fooled because it doesn't happend overnight.

I don’t want to burst anybody’s bubble but just because you have a website, does not mean that you will have a successful business, it does mean that with the right content, using the right keywords and some skillful SEO you will get ranked on Google, but does that mean you will make money, enough to live on, so you can leave your 9-5 or earn more money than you have ever thought possible? That is entirely up to you. Earl Nightingale said. "The only people who make money, work in a mint, everybody else has to earn it and the online space is no exception with hard work, dedication, goals and motivation you will make your own success.

Now I know that there are very successful people out there, but I know that it has not been easy, but like Earl Nightingale said in the 1950s “Men simply do not think”. and also “Success is the progressive realisation of a worthy ideal’. We become what we think about and without goals you have no direction. Men with goals will be successful, no matter what they do. But, those goals have to be SMART, that is specific, measurable, achievable, realistic and have a time limit. You quite simply have to work towards achieving them every day.

So set your goals and work towards them. Also, and very importantly remember if you think in negative terms you will get negative results but if you think in positive terms you will no doubt achieve success.

Just a word of caution before you get excited and are raring to go, be aware that there will be people you know, you love or you respect that will not be as enthusiastic about your goals and will try to put you off, particularly if success might change you. They will be either scared that you will not succeed or you do and as a consequence they might suffer, so you might have a lot of convincing to do.

Do you know anything about hidden agendas and secondary gains. A secondary gain is something that comes as a consequence of success, that might not be welcomed, or it might come as a consequence of something which did not work out as expected. Or a hidden agenda, might make someone a different person because they have been successful. Like someone losing weight and their friend does not like it because their friendship might suffer.

I like you have been making money from what I do all my working life. Sometimes I have been enthusastic about it, and sometimes not so happy about the prospect, but I have always been driven to succeed and had personal goals and like Earl Nightingale said - “Success is the progressive realisation of a worthy ideal”. So just a word of caution, watch out for those nay sayers and doubting Thomas’ and reach for the stars. Work towards your goals everyday with gratitude for what you have aleady achieved.

To your ultimate success
