Make Money and Live Online

Often I took this advice lightly until the ignorance became a habit not to get the right mindset in place before performing any task or assignment. By right mindset here I mean that I just do things simply to get it done quickly before moving to another task.

I don’t know what you think about this, but after going through years getting things done like this I finally found out that the results of my job performance is just above average or 60% to 75% if I put it in numbers.

Not only my yearly job performance is just above average it’s even worst with my part-time online business. Although I got a lot of resources at hand and do a lot of reading on IM but my sales still couldn’t pay my internet bills.

More than a year back I got 5 websites running and selling different items and packages but sadly the traffic just passed with only a few conversions. When the hosting period expired I have to abandoned 4 of these sites. The sales was not enough to cover the hosting fees. I failed to make any profit online.

This makes me feel like a ‘fool’. I said to myself, ‘how come other people are making money online everyday but I’m not? Hey something is not right here. If other people are laughing to the bank while I’m still struggling to make a few sales then something is definately wrong somewhere’.

I decided to take a break from this so called part-time business. But, as you know it’s difficult to dissociate myself with my PC. Somehow or rather I’ve been ‘addicted’ to my PC and internet.

Luckily during this time my internet connection has to be disconnected since I have to move to my new house that I’ve just bought. My house is located in a new housing area which has no physical access to the internet.

Do you know how I feel without internet connection? Yeah… its a lot of BLUES kind of feeling, so much blues. But after much thought I think this is a blessing in disguise.

During those blue period I kept sifting through my harddisk finding some magic formula. God must have granted my prayer. I accidentally click to an old folder which was embedded beneath another 2 folders.

Huh… and old pdf report … date?… no date but I think it was published before year 2003. I glanced the report quickly but then my eyes spotted this sentence, “Thought (or lack of thought) leads to action (or inaction) which always leads to results.” Something just strike my mind, “ahaa… lack of thought leads to bad results”.

Oh my God, I had been putting up websites in hope of generating extra income too quickly without giving a thorough thinking and good planning. Thats why the sites were not getting the sales as expected.

Now I realised that without the right mindset at that time I failed to give a good thought for the project without realising the consequences. I just went forward and built those sites ‘just to get things done‘. Sighh…now I realised that just to get things done without a clear thought and plan is a suicide!

Hey, I’ve to start all over again and yes I’m back to a newbie on IM (but an old newbie, LOL!).

For you newbies out there, before getting on IM it’s always a good to start to have the right mindset first then followed by your action planning and objectives.
