As a newbie marketer, it’s very easy to get into the habit of constantly looking for new information because hey, we “want to learn all we can to be successful”. Well, it has been my experience, and many others, that this simply is not the way to go.

Because I see this a lot, and, have been guilty of it myself, I want to put together a list for you to help keep you focused an on track.

• Information is good, but moving from info to info to info to info will do you no good, you must put what you learn into practice, it’s the only way to see progress
• don’t try to become an expert on all things, learn piece by piece and add to your toolbox
• setup a schedule, the Internet can be very distracting, know your goals and stick with them
• oh yeah, SETUP SOME GOALS and DEADLINES!! It’s much easier when you are working towards something
• Treat this as a job! That’s what it is, if you want to be successful you have to change you mindset, this is not just some random stuff you are doing online, it’s a business venture you are growing into a successful empire
• YOU ARE NOT HIM/HER, so don’t gauge your progress off of others, you have to know what success means to you, and work towards it. Yeah, so this guy is making $500 a day after 2 weeks, SO WHAT!!! All that means is that you know this stuff can work if you work it, you don’t know his situation or work ethic, all you know is they are making money, just buckle down and get your share.
• Stop being scared! Quit complaining about how much you don’t know and just use what you do. So what if your first website sucks! So what if you don’t know how to write an article. IM is just like anything else you want to be good at, it takes PRACTICE. That means keep doing it.

Well, I think that is enough to give you a good kick in the tush and motivate you to move forward. I know, I will be taking some of my own advice. Oh yeah, Kyle and Carson have a ‘TASKS’ application within Wealthy Affiliate that lets you track your goals and tasks…organization is key. Join me if you will, if you are already enrolled, meet me on WA Spaces so we can talk and keep each other motivated.
