Personal Success, Home Business, and Making Money Online
Talking about peristing in the face of adversity . . . . I just wrote out a draft of this post, hit enter, and this vile open source WordPress program wiped the post clean. My true feelings about open source software are the subject for another post, and if I continue on, I’ll devolve into variations on a popular four letter expletive.
Well, persisting in the face of advesity has everthing to do with making money online because starting an online business and then nurturing it to where it actually brings in income means that you have to carry on no matter how bad it gets. Success requires that you persist. It helps to have a plan, but you’ve got to persist.
Now, earlier, I asked the question, "Do you like yourself well enough to succeed?" Yes, I know, I have an wrote a post on this subject, perhaps a bit sententious, but I have got to bring it up again because it is important. Do you like yourself well enough to believe in yourself enough that you can allow yourself to succeed? Once you lock your sites on a goal, you can rest assured that obstacles will present themselves. Everything under the sun can and may very well happen with the purpose that you give up. In order to carry on, you will need the proper measure of self-belief. I don’t know what the proper measure is, but whatever it is, you need it.
When you are discouraged and frustrated, your best weapon against true despair is your self-belief. Yes, it helps to have at least one or two people who believe in you, but in the end it is self-belief that will carry you through.
As I develop this site, I will be publishing more and more information on how to start making money by developing your own online business, but you must want success badly enough that you make use of the tools. Now, I suspect that because my site is about making money online that many of you want me to hand over the tricks that will bring in cash in the next 24 hourse. Although I could probably show you a few gimmicks, that ’s really not what I’m about, and tricks and gimmicks by themselves do not constitute a business.
At bottom, you’ve got to have goal and be willing to take action. Even if you no idea what you are doing, in my opinion you are making a good start. The next step, of course, would be to learn something about business, and that would help you know how to make the best use of how you take action. However, there are even more basic concepts undercutting business know-how:
- cultivation of right behavior
- cultivation of ethics, or understanding of right and wrong
- cultivation of personal health and hygiene
- development of your awareness and sense of other and your environment
- culitivation of your own sense of personal integrity
Granted, this is a tall order, but these traits are essential for any personal success. You have got to have the discipline to be able to constently and reliably do the actions, or behaviors, necessary to implement a business plan. You also have to have an understanding of right and wrong that is sufficiently devoloped to guide you through the invevitable ethical tangles and complexities you will or may already be encountering. Your personal integrity is perhaps the most important thing you have. Some would argue–me, for example–that this is more important than your immediate life. That is for you to decide, but your strong personal integrity will allow you to hold your ground, stay the course, and earn the respect of others.
If you are reading this post, you may be very concerned and distracted by the need and/or desire to make money right now. And I have to ask you to take a breath and calm yourself. Give yourself some space and distance. Give yourself time and place to act. Read and reread the 5 characteristics in the bulleted list above.

Affiliate marketing is one of the mainstays of Internet marketing and one of the least expensive ways to start a home-based, Internet business.

Online Home Business in the Face of Adversity
I haven’t posted in a few days, and I wanted to come back and apologize for seeming to be out of touch. I’m still here, and this site is still here. What isn’t here is the training and software that I’ve talked about in other posts. That is coming. However, since I am sole producer for this blog, I’ve found myself backlogged and haven’t put up the training and written the inexpensive software. So, I wanted to say a few words. Read more
