Once you have your 1st check, you will have the motivation to work harder for your 2nd check.
Cheers

Good advice for sure. I have been doing this online work "gig" for 6 years. I did not truly start making any money I could talk about until last summer.
It is not an easy task normally. It takes a lot of FOCUS, dedication, persistence, and positive affirmations, on an almost daily basis sometimes.
It can be done.

Yes! Never Give Up! Never Quit! Victory is so sweet so never give up, never quit until you Triumph!
If you look at all of the greatest people in the history of the world in any field such as science, music, art, business, network marketing, internet marketing, whatever it may be all of these people have one thing in common...
They all never never never never never never never...quit!
Never Quitting is what I am most passionate about in my life. I'm always talking about how important it is to never quit! It's greatest thing you can do in your life!
"You are never given a dream or a wish without also being given the power to make that dream or wish come true" -Tim McGaffin
"I know the greatest thing you can do in your life is to rise again after failure or hard times." -Tim McGaffin
"I know when you rise again after failure or hard times, that in those comeback moments you also acquire qualities of greatness such as charity and service for others." -Tim McGaffin
"Success is failure turned inside out, the silver tint of the clouds of doubt, and you can never tell how close you are, it may be near when it seems so far. So stick to the fight when you are hardest hit. It's when things seem worse, that you must not quit." �Unknown

The only thing a quitter gains is an excuse!
There are a lot of positive posts here! Nice to see.
Positive reinforcement and persistence is the path to your dreams.
The only thing you need to achieve your goals is a burning desire. Unfortunately there are a whole lot of people afraid of the flame.

The more I read the more encouragement I'm finding, especially in this post. This is just the recipe for success. I've been procrastinating getting on creating a successful online business. I am now making myself become focussed on finding time and doing the daily exercises. Not easy with kids breathing down your neck after a day at work.
Can't wait for all the time I'll have spare to finally relax. I know it will take some time, but it will happen.

Great posts...
Never giving up is definately essential to succeeding...
If you like the posts on this thread, you should read the book
"Failing Forward" by John C. Maxwell
It goes into detail and real life success stories of people who never gave up in the face of adversity and became huge successes...

This is just what I need to hear!! I've been getting disillusioned recently which has led to a lack of focus on my online business.
Posts like these show the value in being a member of this forum and having people to turn for inspiration.
One of my favourite quotes I'd like to share is by Henry Ford. It is short and to the point.
"Whether you think you can or you think you can't you're usually right."

everyone is so right... andyou have to apply those mentalities to everything you do, not just trying to be successful in working from home. If you apply a positive attitude to all apsects of your life you will start seeing immediate changes!
so... "when you get to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on!!!" - I can't remember who quoted that, but it's one of my faves!

Do any of you use daily mantras? One I use is;
I can be ANYTHING I want to be
If I think I cannot, my mind will find excuses to ensure I cannot
if I think I can, my mind will find ways to ensure that I can
therefore, since I have a choice as to what to think I must only think the right thing:
I CAN
I CAN
I CAN
NOW WATCH ME FLY!
I say this out loud every morning.

I read somewhere once "you are what you think" and that is so true!

This is inspiring & true too:
"Watch your thoughts, for they become words.
Choose your words, for they become actions.
Understand your actions, for they become habits.
Study your habits, for they will become your character.
Develop your character, for it becomes your destiny." - Anonymous
"Our main business is not to see what lies dimly at a distance, but to do what lies clearly at hand." - Thomas Carlyle

That is so true. I'm pretty sure it's from Napolean Hill. Also, today I read an internet marketing tip from Aaron Rashkin. It's his best internet marketing tip #7. Aaron firmly instructs not to 'wait for you ship to come in.' Internet marketers need to make things happen, not wait for things to happen. We need to get busy and stay busy. Make phone calls. Stir up action. Qualify prospects quickly and sort with accuracy. It's considered taking a 'pro-active' response to success. Now go find out!

"Never give up your dream!" - that's what Chuck Norris said in one of his interviews about 15 years ago. I'm pretty sure every famous person repeated the same phrase in one way or another, but people rarely understand what "never" really means.
The way I take it, "never" means "never-ever-ever-ever-in a million years!" It can never happen! You can not find out what would happen if you gave up your dream! This option does not exist!
We like quoting this kind of phrases, yet, having failed once or twice, changing our attitude into failure-justifying mode and we start crying about the economy not being right, or somebody being at fault, or particular business to not work, or some other external reason of our failure.
The most disgusting thing is that we tend to adjust our behavior accordingly and make wrong conclusions out of our failures. We think "I failed at this thing, therefore I have to stop doing it", when the lesson should be "I made a mistake, from which I will learn and continue trying."
There is this friend of mine who we participated in a few businesses together throughout my college years. We are still in touch, just geographically we are a half of a planet apart. So at some point when I was upside down with one of my business projects and it felt like I'm about to quit, I called him and asked, if there was a point at which an entrepreneur should admit that he just wasn't born to be successful and get a 9 to 5 job and just stop trying.
He didn't hesitate for a second and said: "That's an easy question! Never! We will never quit! We just don't do it! No matter what kind of results we are getting, we will never ever quit! If it takes us a lifetime to learn - we will spend our lives learning, but we will never quit! This is what we are - entrepreneurs! No matter how many times we will fail, we will never stop trying!"
How about that?

Hi Pavel,
100% true. Never literally means Never. It's always, "Here's what I am doing right now to make this happen."
Few truly understand that there is no giving up, not ever.
Did that sound ominous?

Well said I like making it happen that's the challenge of the whole thing. What fun is it without the challenge? You have to be pro-active and go for it.
