H.L Hunt once said there was only two requirements for success.

The first being: Decide exactly what it is you want. Most people never do this. They go through life reacting to stimuli of this and that...And wonder soon, where time has gone.

The second requirement is: Determine theprice you are willing to pay to achieve success. Then resolve to pay that price, each and every day of your life.

Even I understand this concept of being able to have anything we want if we are only willing to pay that price. But not in the sense we think today.

Most people aren't even aware that we have to pay a price in advance before we get the results we're wanting. We've been conditioned with media to get things instantly and pay for them later...at a high interest rate. Free Credit Card Anyone?

It means, before we make money online or create a successful business of any kind, we first have to create value for others.

I spent the last six months working tirelessly on a membership site training. I didn't make a dime for the entire six months...But, I now earn an incredible amount!

Online Marketing requires us to do the work first. And this takes determination, perseverance, tenacity and Paying That Price, First.

So in conclusion: Fish or get off the pot. This may mean different things to different people, but to me it means continue to take the action I take each day and Success will be the result.

Either take action or follow the masses. But, if you follow... Prepare to get what the average person gets. Which is average results and possibly a continuous mediocre lifestyle until death.

In my next lesson I will share with you my 7 step formula I've used to create my own success here on the internet and within the community, Wealthy Affiliate!

Taking action daily even with the distractions of life is the road to success. Even if the action is not successful. Accepting failure and learning from it is a form of success.

Nicely said Rick and 100% true. I think that perhaps the most important item is knowing what you really want. That Why. The thing that keeps you up at night or wakes you up early. The thing that burns inside. It will be hard to excel at anything without that driver.....Dick
Glad to hear you're you are doing well.

I just read an article about Warren Buffet. it stated that he did not make his billions until after he was 50. He never gave up on himself! Charles Dickens was told by several publishing houses that his story A Christmas Carol was garbage but Dickens kept sending the story in anyway and now its one of the most popular story's in regards to Christmas. my favorite song is Last Chance by Shooting Star. The lyrics talk about how individuals across the country have dead dreams in their heart and how they need to stand up on their feet because their life is short as hell and how today may be their last chance to believe in themselves! Great training, thanks!
