What Is Mindset? Without It You Will Always Be Broke!

By Leave a Comment

I thought long and hard on how to start out this category on mindset. What better way than to start it off with a poem by Walter D Wintle. This is the oldest version and believed to be the original version of his famous poem simply called Thinking. It was first published in 1905. It sums up so well what mindset is. Read it over and over until it sinks in.

Thinking

If you think you are beaten, you are
If you think you dare not, you don’t,
If you like to win, but you think you can’t
It is almost certain you won’t.

If you think you’ll lose, you’re lost
For out of the world we find,
Success begins with a fellow’s will
It’s all in the state of mind.

If you think you are outclassed, you are
You’ve got to think high to rise,
You’ve got to be sure of yourself before
You can ever win a prize.

Life’s battles don’t always go
To the stronger or faster man,
But soon or late the man who wins
Is the man WHO THINKS HE CAN!

Quit Chasing That Damn Big Red Easy Button!

I’ll let you in on a secret. So called marketing gurus and want to be marketers that follow them love suckers I mean newbie marketers, yea that’s it, newbie marketers that chase those big red easy buttons.

You see, if they keep chasing the big red easy button they keep buying new products that promise to make you rich quickly. When one does not work, they go and buy another and another and another. Eventually they run out of money, get discouraged and quit. Then the big red easy button marketer moves on to their next victim.

Now I’m going to let you in on a personal secret. Many years ago I was that newbie marketer AKA sucker that the so called gurus preyed on. I spent a fortune chasing the big red easy button and only lost money. In fact I lost a lot of money.

The problem that made me a sucker was that I was excited and believed just about anything I read. So when someone told me if I buy this I was going to get rich, I believed them. Boy did I learn my lesson well.

Now there is nothing wrong with being excited. In fact it can keep you motivated until the money actually starts to roll in. So keep the excitement but if it sounds like a get rich quick plan, move on to something that will actually help you to start and run a successful business. Not all marketers are dishonest and prey on people. Some don’t even realize that they are taking advantage of people that are excited to start making money online.

So look at anything you buy closely and do a little research first. Ask yourself this question. Will this actually help me make money? Or is it something that is just exciting my ego?

You can actually learn a lot about Internet marketing and making money online for free. Take advantage of all the free material available. Then, purchase products that will help you with specific tasks that you need more in-depth help with.

So stick with me and I will help you to steer clear of those damn big red easy buttons and actually learn to make money online using methods and techniques that will stand the test of time.
