What is Your resolution for Your Online Business in 2008?

Hi Friend, I wish you a great new year-2008 to you. 2007 was a mix of experimentation and also painful rewards! Yes, why I said 'painful rewards' was due to the fact I had to get through rough learning curve to implement strategies myself & teach you people. O.k its was a 50-50 year for me. I don't know about you.

Now for 2008 I really wanted to head start with programs that are really making me some decent money. Also I wanted to give you the same money making techniques that I am using to earn myself. I have gone through all the rip-offs through my learning curve and spent 100's of dollars buying every internet marketing products that promised me bags-of-cash overnight.

I have gigabytes of products that I bought for cash, simply getting cyber dust in my hard drives. I sometimes even laugh at my own insanity of driving myself to every another opportunity that simply made me run from one pillar to another post jumping from opportunity to another ditch, that promised every thing except valid results!

Its this 2 years of 'online university' learning curve my online marketing skills was fine tuned in to some what successful infoprenuer. I learnt HTML & to some extent learnt how to build my own simple website for the first time. I spent many nights till 5 A.M wondering how simple PHP scripts work. I learnt how articles are written. Basically this is one area that interest me a lot. Article writing. I love to write stuff. So there is no extra effort I needed to put forth for writing my own piece of opinions, reviews & ebook.

I also started Blogging. In other words, I had worked out myself in to Internet Marketing ladder stepping 2 steps forward & slipping 1 step back, until I cracked the code of 'Online marketing' mantra one fine day. Hurry to know what it is? I tell you frankly, its never a secret. It never opens to you until you are really after it!

There's no secret code for success in online business. But trust me the more you go deep into learning the more you'll get. That's why 95% of new aspiring netpreneurs quit because they don't want to learn more! They don't want to dig this "Treasure Trove" any further. The real diggers, the remaining 5% out-of-the-odd really work hard to make it. That's why they succeed. So the mantra is-" Never quit the opportunity. If you quit, someone else will take it". Its a simple mantra that is hard to practice!

Never hear or believe statements that say hard work is obsolete, smart work is a new way to earn. I do agree that smart thinking can take your business to new heights, but there is never a short-cut route to success. You ought to learn some basics to really know about the business. If you don't even understand how to test the water, you'll never succeed in any kind of venture. Even the course or ebooks that teach you how to work smartly to earn 6 figures income, never tell you what basics you require to really work smart.

Consider this, you're just learning Golf. You're getting your golf lessons from your mentor/coach. Once you learn how to play, you'll then think yourself on how to elevate yourself to a Pro-golfer, by testing & tweaking your striking skills. Isn't this the way you work smart once you learn some basic?

Now think that you're just a starter & don't know basics. Also consider you get world class coaching from golf legend Tiger Woods. Even if he teaches all his techniques & tricks of his inimitable legendary golfing, continuously for one week, I bet you would not have applied his tricks & techniques to your golfing, because you don't even know how to strike a golf ball! You don't know basics! What is the use of his expertise if you lack the "Basics" of the game?

I have been all through getting scammed, believed false promises and every other typos that promised stars. I know wealth can't be generated by waving hands in thin air. Wealth creation is all about getting pained and knowing what caused you to pain and finding solutions. And certainly not suffering or cursing people who caused the pain. Its about getting smarter every now and then to avoid getting pained again!

Friend, this is my way to tell you my wishes for 2008. Stick to the thing you long for. Desire to make it a reality even in the midst of wild that is surrounding you. Learn to keep yourself safe from getting ripped off again. You'll learn on your own when it happens to you. Don't predict things before hand thinking about "what if I fail..."what happens to my business...."I'll never succeed..."I'll never be able to learn those basic..."etc. kind of negative thoughts pass by you even for the slightest.

Finally, Thomas Alva Edison, the genius scientist who gave us "electric light" failed nearly ten 1000's time to finally invent the "electric bulb", never said he failed ten 1000's time to finally make the bulb work. Instead he said-" I came to know that there are ten 1000 ways of inventing an electric bulb!" What a optimistic person he was? and what level of dedication would he put forth? If he hadn't we would still be in dark! Let me dedicate this day to this great man who has lightened our lives.

Let this ignite your spirits for 2008. I appreciate your comments on this.

Enjoy!
