90% of IMers Failed?

Last Update: November 14, 2010

Been two months now that I enrolled into the Biz of Internet Marketing, and Wealthy Affiliates.

Also been reading much in IM Forums.

Fully aware that the IM journey is a hard one. I often read from experience and successful IMers quoting that 90% of people who venture into IM failed - how discouraging can it get ? Wonder where they get the stats?

Though I am now into lesson 12 of the "8 weeks Action Plan" , I must confess that I have short-change myself and skipped some of the Action List at the end of each lesson.

No worries - cos I revisit that.

I want to be the 10% that does succeed - what's the odds?

Today I wrote down 12 points on a A4 size paper ( in Big Red Font ) , paste it near my computer to kick/remind myself :

1. Attitude is everything - Persevere

2. Treat IM like a Biz 

3. Have a Sense of Urgency - Procrastination kill

4. Take my study in WA /WF seriously

5. You learn by contributing

6. Select your Biz model and set Long/ Short term Goals

7. Actions! Actions!Actions = Results

8. No shortcut to Success - so don't short-change yourself

9. Beware of Shiny Objects - they Distract

10. Don't go into Advance until you master the basics

11. Experiment with one model until you see results and profitability; then Duplicate

12. Ask for Help when needed - nothing to lose and everything to gain.

I hope to add Point No. 13. Donate gold where necessary to encourage and bless other members. A gold for your progress in your learning journey. Maybe other members have more pointers to contribute to you. Soon your one A4 paper will not be enough.
